Kim S.New York, NY

Dr. Michelle Park is fantastic! From the moment I met her I felt at ease immediately. I started with a consultation that was very thorough. I have experienced with other doctors in the past consultations that don’t even last more than five minutes. Dr. Park takes the time to thoroughly evaluate your skin and discuss any issues you might have. From there I had a procedure with Dr. Park that went beautifully! She has a very soft touch and a great eye! I couldn’t be happier with the results!I look forward to returning to see Dr. Park and The whole friendly staff at Washington Square Dermatology.

Kate H.New York, NY

I have always had trouble with my skin growing up. I have brown skin and acne scarring was pretty bad for me in my teenage years. I've been working with Susanna for about a year now and within that year she has completely transformed my skin. From the prescription's she has recommended to the microneedling sessions I have completed, my skin is glowing now thanks to her! I feel more confident about my skin in pictures. I feel more knowledgeable about how to take care of my skin and I feel comfortable enough to talk to her about my concerns when they arise.
I highly recommend Susanna, especially for people of color with a darker skin tone like mine.

Who wants to stay looking young and wrinkle free like Ilona! 🙋🏽‍♂️

Wearing sunscreen everyday is the most important thing you can do to protect your skin from skin cancer, wrinkles, and brown spots. 

Do you wear sunscreen daily? 🤔💭
One of the top cosmetic concerns that our patients have is they are unhappy with their undereyes.

Are perfect undereyes achievable?💭🤔

Let’s hear what Susanna has to say! 

Remember every photo on social media is edited, thanks for keeping it real Susanna 💯
Yesterday was our ⭐️ medical assistant Gabby’s last day 😢 We are SO PROUD that she is headed to HARVARD for medical school! 🌟😁😍🌟

One of the best parts of our job is having the privilege of working with talented young people as they grow and move on in their career. Gabby is a wonderful human! We are going to miss her but we can’t wait to see all that she accomplishes! She is going to be an amazing doctor! 🧑🏾‍⚕️😀 

Harvard is lucky to have you!! 🍀
Lip filler can look NATURAL 💋 No ducks 🦆 in our office 😂

Make sure to choose your injector carefully, and it’s always better to start slow and steady 😁😁

When doing lip filler for the first time, how many syringes should YOU start with?
I hope everyone had a wonderful memorial weekend full of lots of 😀😀😀 If you were in the Hamptons or Upstate please make sure to do a tick check on your skin as Lyme disease is no joke! 

Ticks typically need 24 hours of attachment to transmit disease so please make sure to do regular tick checks this summer! 🕷️
Congrats Dr. Park we are so happy for you!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️😘😘😘😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰
Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend! 😀 Please be smart with the sun. Don’t forget your hat, sunglasses and sunscreen! 🧢 😎 🧴

Filler often gets a bad rap but when done skillfully it can look magical 🪄

Thanks to my beautiful patient for allowing us to share her natural result. We were both so thrilled. Listen to the end to hear what she has to say. 😀😀😀

Patients number one concern with filler is that they will look unnatural. Remember when filler is done right you can look like yourself but better. 😀
So excited for Dr. Park, she’s about to welcome baby #2! We’ll miss her a ton (don’t worry, she’ll be back), but can’t wait to meet her little bundle soon! 💕🫶👶🏻🥰💕
Sculptra is one of my favorite treatments as the results are both NATURAL and long lasting! 😀 My beautiful patient came to me as she looked tired and didn’t feel like herself. We were both so thrilled with her results 😍😊🥰🥰

Sculptra is not as well known as other cosmetic treatments like Botox or Fillers like Juvederm and Restylane.

Have you heard of sculptra before?
🌼Thankfully spring is here! 🌸Just a reminder for those of you with kids to please protect them with clothes, hats and sunscreen 😀
Beware of fake botox! Remember if a deal seems too good to be true it probably is! ⚠️‼️⛔️‼️⚠️⛔️‼️⚠️⛔️
