    I first came to Dr. Schlesinger wanting a non-surgical rhinoplasty, but after my thorough and informative consultation we both agreed that my nose was great and what I needed was more of a chin! After getting fillers in my chin it was a night and day difference! I highly recommend seeing Dr. Schlesinger

    My experience with Dr. Schlesinger’s office is awesome! I was looking for a more youthful appearance in my face and after getting Voluma fillers in my cheeks and chin, I am very happy with the results. My face is smoother and looks very natural and replenished.
