Westside Aesthetics

Accomplished, Yale-trained facial plastic surgeon Dr. Alexander Z. Rivkin founded Westside Aesthetics to provide his patients with beautifying, medical-grade treatments without the discomfort and downtime required by surgery. At Westside Aesthetics, patients can enjoy technologically advanced skin-care services in an intimate, luxurious environment where every aspect of their treatment is personally supervised by Dr. Rivkin. Westside offers a wide array of injectables, such as Botox®, Restylane, and Radiance for facial rejuvenation. All injectable procedures are administered by Dr. Rivkin himself, including 'injection rhinoplasty,' which uses various injectable fillers to effect subtle changes in the contours of the nose. This temporary procedure is much less expensive and debilitating than plastic surgery. Teenagers and others wary of the permanent effects of plastic surgery are common candidates for injection rhinoplasty. Dr. Rivkin's IPL photo-facial and laser hair removal system have been known to achieve lasting effects for most skin types in much less time than other lasers. Licensed aestheticians perform Westside's medical spa treatments, which include exfoliating chemical peels, a full-hour acne facial, and microdermabrasion. The waiting room at Westside features a balcony and available chocolate, espresso, cappuccino, and water.
