Tue May 04 2010This was the worst experience I've had with a doctor and I've gone to a few. First of all, she didn't even put me into a gown to look at my...

Sun Jan 31 2010I am very happy to recommend Dr. Gupta and her practice for cosmetic procedures. She has very nice bedside manners and is competent and knowledgable about the things she does. I have had some work done on my skin and am receiving many compliments. I tell everyone to go see Dr. Gupta. One of my friends had liposuction with Dr. Gupta and is also very pleased with her outcome.

Sun Dec 20 2009I went to see Dr Gupta for filler and Botox . She talked to me about the different fillers and we decided on juverderm for the filler and botox around my eyes. After ttwo weeks I felt like I needed more botox around my eyes I went back to see Dr Gupta and she touched up my eyes again at no charge. I talked to her about laser treatments and she gave me several options to think about. and I plan on having one of those treatment in the near future.

Wed May 20 2009I have been very happy with my results from scleratherapy leg vein injections for my leg veins. Another doctor tried earlier but didn't achieve nearly the same outcome. Dr. Gupta is very warm and friendly and the staff is really fun to interact with. I am going to have liposuction for my thighs done next at this office. I really love going to a doctor's office for the first time in my life...

Wed Mar 11 2009I had my eyes treated and they look fabulous. My eyelids used to make me look tired and droopy. Dr. Gupta removed skin from my upper eyelids and fat from the bags under my eyes. Now I look refreshed. People have noticed but can't put a finger on why I look like I have lost weight and look younger. Dr. Gupta is really nice and caring. She definitely enjoys her work. The staff is also really nice. I am so happy! I wish I had done this years ago...

Tue Mar 03 2009Hi, I'm from New York originally and have had many doctors attempt to treat my leg veins. I have had laser treatments, injections and one doctor even suggested surgery. The response had been very poor until Dr. Gupta treated my legs. I am very impressed with the results. She was extremely thorough which I really appreciated, since it got me ready for my cousin's wedding in good time. Other doctors would treat just little areas or very few veins at a time. The laser from another doctor left me with ugly white scars and was also very painful. Dr. Gupta even got my purple looking veins around the ankles without much discomfort at all. My family was shocked to see how good my legs looked. Not only that but they also feel much lighter and healthier. I had no idea the veins can make your legs feel so tired. Dr. Gupta was right about that fact. I am so excited about all this, I wanted to share it with everyone. I am also currently getting laser hair removal on my face which is wo... Read more

Wed Feb 11 2009I had liposuction done with vaser and smartlipo on my belly, sides and thighs. I love the results. I thought the doctor was very thorough and worked very hard to give me the best possible results. I couldn't be happier. I have even lost a significant amount of weight (12 pounds) despite being warned that I might not loose much weight at all. I felt everyone was very caring and honest. They called me numerous times to follow up with me. My husband was also very happy with the whole experience as he was the one dropping and picking me up. When my friends look at me now I am excited to tell them to go to Dr. Gupta. I highly recommend this practice. It is solid.

Mon Jan 26 2009I came to see Dr. Gupta also based on all the positive comments on the internet. She definitely lives up to them. She is warm and friendly and has a great eye for making the right recommendations. She is an artist with her hands. She looks at me as if I'm a piece of art she is creating. I feel extremely comfortable in her hands and fully confident in her abilities. I had laser treatment for my brown spots and facial veins which have nicely diminished. I also had a ton of sun damage on my chest, neck and arms which now look amazing. We also did skin tightening from which I saw immediate results to my amazement. I also had some fillers. I was initially scared of the fillers but am so extremely happy I trusted Dr. Gupta's advise. It has made a world of difference and my face actually looks slimmer and younger. I am scheduled to have my outer thighs and belly fat removed next and can't wait for that. I highly highly recommend Dr. Gupta.

Sat Jan 10 2009I went to see Dr. Gupta based on reviews here, and on her education. I have melasma, and had decided to go to the best Dr. I could find. Dr. Gupta looked at me across a dimly lit room and said I needed 2k worth of Cosmelan peels. If you check reviews on Cosmelan, you will find that they changed their formula 2 years ago and it is now worthless. Also I have sensitive skin and turn red very easy, acid peels weren't for me. So I paid 1500 for 3 BBL's. The first two went fine, but I tired of the hard-sell of expensive products. It was worse than the cosmetic's ladies at the mall. At the third BBL she used a stronger filter, and turned up the settings very high (why?) I now look like I sprayed fake tanner all over my face, turn brick red when I try to use any of the $500.00 worth of products I bought, and have some scars on my chin (where there was no melasma) from burns. Of course the office denied it was burns. Also spots that had gone away came right back, as well as looking l... Read more

Sat Nov 22 2008I felt very comfortable at Dr. Gupta's office. She made recommendations that made sense for me. I love what she has done for me. My friends are giving me tons of compliments. Even strangers are telling me I have great skin, a compliment I am receiving for the first time in my life, She definitely knows what she is doing and I have full confidence in her. She is the only doctor I will trust for my skin. Price was actually less than another place I visited. I feel extremely well taken care of and the staff is just delightful. I am also having veins treated on my legs and they are responding beautifully. I will be a lifelong patient. Her enthusiasm indicates how much she loves what she does.

Fri Oct 17 2008My son had multiple laser resurfacing treatments by this doctor, and he just loves her. Due to his condition, he required multiple treatments, which, in the end, have yielded spectacular results. We are all amazed by her work. She always waves and smiles at me when I bring him in for a visit. She is very beautiful and has a wonderful personality. I would recommend her to anyone.

Thu Aug 28 2008I had a really good experience too. My friend referred me and went with me for my first consultation. Everyone took the time to really know my situation and what I was looking for. It's not just about price and equipment but also skill and compassion which helps the doctor treat you better. Ultimately you get what you pay for and I have to say it has been really worth it. I get a lot of compliments as does my friend. I had gone to another doctor before for the fraxel laser treatment. He charged half of what I paid here but after his treatment (which was done by a nurse), I was hardly even pink or swollen. The procedure had taken all but five minutes. After Dr. Gupta's treatment (performed by her personally and which took more like 30 minutes), I could tell how much more thorough the treatment was and indeed, I got much better results. It's not worth settling for mediocrity or cheap prices. I also got fillers which I love. In the longrun, I am way ahead! and so Happy!! No n... Read more

Wed Aug 20 2008With the results I have experienced thus far with my acne scars and facial trauma scar after receiving treatment from Dr. Gupta and her staff, cost is moot. I honestly didn't think it was possible for me to have such results, based on the severity of my condition. No complaints here. Dr. Gupta is very sweet and professional, as are her staff. When you go to see her, you need to ask her, "What do you think would be the most effective treatment for my condition?" If it doesn't fit your budget, ask about an alternative.

Wed Jul 09 2008Like reviewer "unimpressed" I too felt compelled to take the time and warn of my bad experience. I waited over 2 hours for my appointment with no apology or reason as to why it was taking so long. Finally she rushed in, talked with me for a few seconds on what procedure I was there for, and then rushed me off to another room, where I waited for another half hour. When she finally came in, she had forgotten to turn on the equipment so more minutes of waiting. When the procedure was done, I went to the front to pay. Instead of the $500 dollar charge, they said I owed $1,000 because Dr. Gupta did a longer session! I refused to pay it saying that I had only asked for the $500 session time. After much discussion, they agreed to the $500. They did try to blame me saying that I should have stopped her after 15 minutes! I informed them that I did discuss this with her prior to the start of the session. Personally I think she was in such a rush, she didn't know how long I was suppos... Read more

Mon Jul 07 2008I had Smartlipo and Vaser for my tummy and sides. I love my results. My babyfat is finally gone and my tummy is nice and flat. There was no pain, hardly any bruising and the recovery was easier than I thought it would be. I am back in a bikini and feeling awesome. Dr. Gupta has wonderful bedside manners and made me feel very comfortable. The staff is really sweet and warm too. I'm having my thighs done next.

Sun Jun 22 2008I came in had melasma and wrinkles. I have been other places but just seemed not the places for me. I was referred to Dr. Gupta by my doctor and some friends that got great results. The cost was just slightly more expensive but I am a new me and it was worth every penny! The staff was wonderful even though I was really nervous they walked me through from the beginning to end and called me to make sure I was doing well and had no questions. I would trust Dr. Gupta and staff with my life. Before I was depressed, and now I am no longer wearing makeup and all my friends tell me how great I look. Sincerely, never looked better

Tue Jun 17 2008I've had great results. The staff is very caring and friendly. I had multiple procedures and they worked hard to make it work with my crazy work schedule. All my friends tell me how great I look. I had acne scars that are virtually gone. My wrinkles are gone. My skin is smooth and tight. My skin has beautiful glow. I will be a patient for life. My sister saw me after a long time this weekend in New Jersey and wants to be a patient too. For the amount of work I had done, I felt it was extremely worth every penny and more. I have no hesitation in recommending Dr. Gupta. She is compassionate, caring and knows what to do. I trust her completely. Her skills are impeccable. The office is beautiful and the staff and she are beautiful too. I highly recommend the whole experience.

Wed Jun 11 2008I would not typically take the time to do something like this (review), but I stumbled across this site while browsing online for dermatologists and I felt compelled to comment on my experience at The Dermatology Laser and Vein Center. After a consultation with Dr. Gupta, she told me what could be done with my facial condition and quoted an eye-popping price for a series of three identical ?procedures?. Dr. Gupta had a pleasant, laid-back demeanor however, I came away neither impressed nor unimpressed with the initial consultation. Given the credentials she advertises, and simply to save my valuable time -- I ended up going forward. Unfortunately or me, it became increasingly unimpressive from that point on, and ultimately it finished up as a significant waste of my money and complete waste of my time. I totally agree with another reviewer here -- I could never tell that she genuinely cared about helping, and in retro-respect it certainly seemed that she just saw the dollar sig... Read more

Mon Jun 09 2008I chose to use Dr. Gupta after reading good reviews on her, she was everything but professional. She never took the time to even touch or examine my daughters face, who is only 14 years of age. Her first recommendation was for her to have some facial peels. She was kind of on the rude side and I could not tell that she actually cared about helping. I think she just sees dollar signs. I would not suggest that anyone use her.

Sat Apr 07 2007I have been very happy with the care I have received from Dr. Shalini Gupta. She is very professional, takes the time to understand my problem. I have been to her thrice over 5 years and each time, with a different problem. She explained each procedure, explained after-care and was very responsive when I called her 3 days after my last Thermage procedure. I am very happy with the results. I have been to two other doctors for my last problem and they were more expensive, and more rushed in their approach. Hence, I chose Dr. Gupta again. My sister and mother are also her patients and she has taken excellent care of them. We recommend her as a family!

Thu Mar 22 2007I went to Dr Gupta for a facial skin problem I had. She did a very thorough assessment and gave me professional advice. She told me the pros and cons of the procedures which could help me. She listened to my concerns and gave me all the information to make up my mind. I am really glad I came to her as she fixed my problem with excellent results. I would highly recommend Dr. Gupta's office and staff. You must see her before deciding to get any dermatology procedure done. I had seen two other doctors in the city, but Dr. Gupta is the one to go to.

Mon Jan 01 2007I WAS EXTREMELY HAPPY WITH MY CONSULTATION WITH DR. GUPTA CONCERNING BOTOX INJECTIONS. DR. GUPTA IS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND EXPLAINED THOROUGHLY WHY I NEEDED TO HAVE MORE THAN ONE ZONE INJECTED WITH BOTOX IN ORDER TO ACHIEVE THE DESIRED RESULTS. MY WRINKLED FOREHEAD, BROW AREA AND "CROWS FEET" WERE MARKEDLY DIMINISHED BY DR. GUPTA'S SKILL S AND I AM HAPPY TO REPORT THAT I DO NOT APPEAR TO LOOK "FROZEN-FACED". I LOOK YOUNGER, YET NATURAL. AS FAR AS PAIN WITH THE PROCEDURE, ON A SCALE OF 1 TO 10 WITH 10 BEING THE MOST PAIN , I WOULD RANK IT AS A 2. OVERALL, IT WAS A VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE.

Mon Sep 25 2006Dr. Gupta is an excellent cosmetic dermatologist. Her staff is extremely friendly and caring. She has excellent bedside manners and really listens to the patient. She offered me some very good options to fit my lifestyle and budget and I am absolutely thrilled with the results of my procedures. I recommend her without a doubt to all my friends and family! Thank you, Dr. Gupta!
