Dr. Sherly Soleiman, MD
Board-Certified Physician | Founder and Medical Director at Cosmetic Injectables Center Medspa in Sherman Oaks, CA
Dr. Sherly Soleiman, MD, is the Founder and full-time, on-site Medical Director of Cosmetic Injectables Center Medspa, serving patients throughout Sherman Oaks, Encino, and the greater Los Angeles area. She oversees all patient care standards and a comprehensive medical spa offering laser treatments, skin rejuvenation, body contouring, and non-surgical medical aesthetic procedures in addition to advanced cosmetic injectables.
Dr. Soleiman is a board-certified Family Medicine physician with a distinguished subspecialty in non-surgical aesthetics and injectables. With over 25 years of experience in medicine, she is a nationally recognized expert, educator, and innovator dedicated to the art and safety of minimally invasive cosmetic procedures.
For patients searching for the best injector in Los Angeles or the best medical spa near Sherman Oaks, Dr. Soleiman is one of a small group of faculty nationwide hand-selected by Allergan Aesthetics — the company behind Botox and Juvederm — to serve as Lead Faculty, its highest tier of physician education. While other faculty assist attendees hands-on throughout the room, Dr. Soleiman is one of the select few who lead from the stage — presenting, speaking, and educating physicians and injectors nationwide on the most advanced Botox® and Juvéderm® techniques.
Dr. Soleiman’s approach is rooted in a “less is more” philosophy — enhancing natural features rather than altering them. This commitment to safe, natural-looking results is reinforced by her advanced certification in MD Codes®, a precision injection technique developed by Dr. Mauricio de Maio — a distinction held by only 30 practitioners nationwide. Dr. Soleiman is one of just 8 certified MD Codes® physicians in the United States.
Since founding her practice in 2009, Dr. Soleiman has built one of the most established medical spas in the Sherman Oaks and Encino community, now recognized as a Top 250 Allergan practice in the USA — placing her in the top 1% of providers nationwide.
