Dr Lain is the most magnificent dermatologist. He not only was the first dermatologist out of six to not make me feel like a leper, but he also knew exactly how to treat what at the time I was calling feet, as they were so symptomatic from an autoimmune disorder that they were hardly recognizable as feet. He did not make me feel disgusting and like a Biohazard, he made me feel like he actually knew how to treat me and had a plan on how to help me get better and he did it worked perfectly and I've been seeing him for many years now! Additionally I have gone to MedSpa for Botox and come out looking worse than Forest Whitaker. I wish that was a joke but it's not. Dr Lain is now the only person who is allowed to Botox not just my face but also my husband's face because he is absolutely incredible but giving you natural looking results and helping you look like you just freshened up. I will not stop seeing this practice and this doctor until he retires!!!!
Ted is the guy! Seriously I’ve been going to Sanova Dermatology for years and Dr Ted Lain is the ultimate professional. He and his team take great care of my skin health!
Well done
