Leading Ladies 2022: Dr. Valerie Tokarz
Now into its third year as a business, TOKARZ DERMATOLOGY and the women working there know it has been a fulfilling endeavor. “It’s incredibly rewarding to help our patients feel better about their appearance and build trust and a long-lasting relationship,” says Dr. Valerie Tokarz.
Her cosmetic dermatology office showcases her skilled experience in laser and cosmetic treatments, such as lasers for sun damage, rosacea, and redness; botox and filler for our aging faces; and a newer therapy: platelet rich plasma (PRP). “The world of dermatology is in constant flux, and over the past few years, I’ve been following the progression of using a patient’s own platelets to help the skin in a variety of ways. It’s exciting to see these studies become reality in a clinical environment.”
“Our practice has always upheld the highest standards for safety when performing cosmetic treatments,” says Dr. Tokarz. “You may not realize that the specialty of dermatology has pioneered the procedures of botox, fillers, and lasers, and we continually work on process improvements, especially during the pandemic.”
With over 30 years of combined experience in cosmetic and surgical dermatology, Tokarz’s “Dream Team” pride themselves on making your visit exceptional. Manager Maria DiSimone points out some of the personal touches: “Any patient who has a procedure done – be it botox or laser – will all get a follow-up phone call to ensure they don’t have any unusual side effects, have an opportunity to ask additional questions, and see how their overall experience was. We are constantly working at improving the patient’s experience by building long-term relationships with our patients.” Barbara Bisson, Dr. Tokarz’s medical assistant, ensures patients are comfortable and helps create a relaxing and calming environment.
You might be wondering: why choose Tokarz Dermatology over a “medi-spa” or non-dermatology offices for your cosmetic treatments? The major benefit to having your cosmetic and laser procedures performed by a board certified dermatologist is the expertise. Not only will Dr. Tokarz do your botox, filler, or laser treatments, but she will also examine your skin as only a dermatologist can. Maria explains that Dr. Tokarz is always giving dermatology advice to help her patients that only a specialist with her training knows.
So, if you’re looking for a solution to improve your aging skin, are tired of seeing your under-eye circles and wrinkles in photos, or just want to learn what a cosmetic dermatologist can offer, call for your individualized consultation with Dr. Tokarz. The “Dream Team” is here to assist you!
