Dr. Sherly Soleiman
Founder and M.D.
Founder, provider, and medical director at our medspa, Dr. Sherly Soleiman has dedicated her entire sub-specialty to the art and safety of minimally invasive procedures using and teaching the latest and most advanced techniques. She is one of the most requested local faculties for Allergan (the company that makes Botox, Juvederm, Voluma, and Kybella), teaching other doctors and nurses how to inject their products safely and accurately.
Dr. Sherly Soleiman is very passionate about the art of injectables. It all started about 9 years ago when a filler procedure under her eyes by a reputable injector resulted in an unfavorable outcome. Since that event, Dr. Soleiman took it upon herself to learn all there is to know about the dynamics, safety, and different techniques of injections.
Dr. Soleiman understands the artistic side of providing cosmetic injections to her patients. In her vast array of studies, she has taken sculpting classes, studied painters, make-up artists, and photoshop specialist. All of these things have allowed her to gain extended knowledge of facial features, differentiators of male and female facial contours, as well as how lights and shadows can affect the signs of aging. With her extensive studies, she was able to share her knowledge with other providers and improve the artistic approach that is offered by everyone in the medspa. As a result, a more youthful appearance can be achieved.
Over the many years of dedication to the non-invasive cosmetic world, Dr. Soleiman has advanced to faculty level, being on the Advisory Board and becoming a clinical researcher in multiple injectables studies for Allergan (the company that makes Botox, Voluma, Juvederm, and Kybella).

Medical Spa or Day Spa: Which Is Right for Your Skin and Aesthetic Goals?
Choosing between a medical spa and a day spa is less about “pampering vs procedures” and more about risk, accountability, and what your skin actually needs to change. If your goals involve pigment, acne scarring, facial volume changes, laxity, or vascular redness—or...
What’s the Difference Between a Medical Spa, Day Spa, and Traditional Spa?
Choosing between a medical spa, a day spa, and a traditional spa isn’t a lifestyle preference—it’s a clinical decision about risk, oversight, and the kind of results you can safely pursue. The names sound similar, but the differences matter most when you’re...
Tirzepatide vs Semaglutide: Key Differences in Medical Weight Loss Programs

12 Common Mistakes to Avoid When Starting Tirzepatide for Weight Loss
Starting tirzepatide is not a “quick fix”—it’s a medical decision that changes appetite signaling, digestion speed, and metabolic patterns. In our Sherman Oaks medical spa, the best outcomes come from patients who treat the first 8–12 weeks as a titration and...
Tirzepatide Myths vs Facts: What Medically Supervised Weight Loss Really Involves
Choosing tirzepatide for weight loss isn’t a “cosmetic decision”—it’s a medical one. The upside can be meaningful improvements in appetite regulation, metabolic health, and long-term weight trajectory. The downside is that the wrong dose, the wrong candidate, or the...
Tirzepatide Explained: How Medical Weight Loss Treatments Work at a Medical Spa

Acne Treatment Options Offered at Medical Spas: What Patients Should Know
Acne is rarely “just a breakout.” For many patients, the real long-term risk is persistent inflammation that drives scarring, post-acne discoloration, and uneven texture—problems that become harder (and more expensive) to correct later. In our Sherman Oaks medical...

How the Stellar M22 Laser Treats Multiple Skin Concerns With One Platform
Treating redness, sun damage, brown spots, uneven tone, and textural change is rarely a “one-laser, one-setting” decision—especially in Los Angeles where cumulative UV exposure and pigment instability are common. The clinical advantage of a true multi-technology...
Why Sculptra Is Different From Traditional Dermal Fillers
Choosing an injectable isn’t a “which filler is best?” decision—it’s a tissue-behavior decision. In our Sherman Oaks medical spa, the biggest mismatches we see happen when patients want the immediacy of a gel filler but choose a product designed for gradual structural...
Why One Dermal Filler Doesn’t Fit All: Comparing Belotero, Juvederm, and Restylane
Treating the face well with dermal filler is less about “choosing a brand” and more about matching a specific gel behavior to your anatomy, skin thickness, movement pattern, and risk profile. When patients come in asking for “the best filler,” the right medical answer...
Medspa vs Dermatology Clinic – Key Differences
Making sense of the difference between a physician-led medical spa and a dermatology clinic is more than a terminology issue—it directly affects your safety, outcomes, and how well your treatment plan supports long-term skin health. Many patients in Sherman Oaks first...
What to Expect During a Medspa Laser Treatment
Undergoing a laser treatment is not a “spa day” add-on—it is a medical procedure that can dramatically improve skin quality when selected and performed correctly, or create complications when it isn’t. Understanding what to expect before, during, and after your medspa...
