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).
