Surgery at PotozkinMD

PotozkinMD Skincare and Laser Center offers a variety of medical and cosmetic surgical options for our patients.  Dr. Potozkin became one of the first physicians in the United States to take and pass the board certification exam in Micrographic and Dermatologic Surgery and is now dual board-certified in Dermatology and Mohs Surgery.

In addition to Mohs Surgery, Dr. Potozkin offers blepharoplasty eyelid surgery, tumescent liposuction, earlobe repair, skin cancer removal surgery & cosmetic mole removal.Upper eyelid blepharoplasty is performed on those who are experiencing excess skin and fat on the upper eyelid. An incision is made in the upper eyelid fold where the excess skin and fat is removed or repositioned. In some procedures, we may need to tighten or correct underlying muscle tissue with sutures. Our team will hide incisions in natural folds and creases and close the incisions with sutures.

Tumescent liposuction can be performed on almost any area of the body, but the most common areas we treat are:

• Abdomen
• Love handles
• Inner and outer thighs
• Hips
• Knees
• Chin
• Neck

While traditional liposuction requires invasive surgery, potential complications, and a lot of recovery time, tumescent liposuction is a safer, more effective option that can be done in a single outpatient procedure.
