Lenox Hill dermatologist Dr. Howard Sobel was named in New York Magazine's Best Doctors of 2013 issue. Dr. Sobel has been voted best dermatologist for 14 consecutive years.
The doctor is an attending physician in dermatology and dermatologic surgery at Lenox Hill North Shore/ LIJ Hospital. He also founded the New York Institute of Aesthetic Dermatology and Laser Surgery.
The award-winning Dr. Sobel performs a wide array of procedures including Botox and Liposuction treatments.
Dr. Sobel is a strong believer in the benefits of BOTOX. The doctor expertly injects patients in his office in just minutes—sometimes called a lunchtime facelift, Botox injections require no recovery time so the patient can go on with the day. Botox significantly reduces signs of aging via an injection of a small amount of botulism toxin. The BOTOX relaxes the muscles, and in turn the skin, so that the appearance of wrinkles is lessened. The injections can be used to treat crow's feet, glabellar lines, and lines across the forehead, around the mouth, laugh lines or bands on the neck. Tiny needles are used so there is virtually no bruising.
Along with a younger face Dr. Sobel offers a firmer, fitter body as well.
The doctor performs liposuction surgery using the tumescent (or super wet) technique—which means with a local anesthetic as opposed to a general anesthetic (unconscious.)
Liposuction sculpts the body by removing undesirable fat that has not responded to diet and exercise from the abdomen, waist, hips, buttocks, thighs, knees, upper arms, chin, cheeks and neck. Liposuction offers patients the opportunity to slim and contour stubborn areas of the body; by removing the fat cells, it also ensures that these areas will not accumulate fatty deposits in the future.
In 1986 Dr. Sobel was one of the first physicians to perform liposuction using the tumescent technique purely under local anesthesia. According to the American Society of Dermatologic Surgery, tumescent liposuction enables a surgeon, using local anesthesia, to safely and successfully remove fat deposits with relatively little patient discomfort, virtually no complications and excellent cosmetic results.
