What Our Patients Are Saying

“Pain-free with almost zero downtime”

Acne and Skin Rejuvenation Treatment

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Copeland-Halperin and her office. I am seeing her for a series of skin rejuvenation procedures, mainly to address acne scarring. We began with a consultation where she offered a variety of options to address my concerns. I chose to do a combination of topical skin care and laser treatments. She has a great bed-side manner and everything has been pain-free with almost zero downtime. My skin was a bit sensitive the following day, but I had almost no redness or peeling.She followed up with my on my progress and her office is also very communicative. I am continuing to see her for ongoing “Skin Rejuvenation Treatments”

“Everyone says how wonderful I look”

I was going through a terrible divorce and it really took a toll on me. I looked tired, haggard and old. I went to see Dr Copeland because she had done such a wonderful job on my daughter’s nose and I am so glad I did. Within a week of seeing her for some “quick fixes” I was asked out on my first date! Everyone says how wonderful I look but they can’t tell what I have done– it looks so natural. And the skin care products are fantastic and seemed to work almost immediately.

“Results have been phenomenal”

I’ve been seeing Dr. Copeland-Halperin for skin treatment and the results have been phenomenal. I’m new to these types of procedures and in my first few visits she patiently walked me through everything I was to expect and offered some helpful tips for my sensitive skin. The staff is very pleasant to work with which makes me genuinely enjoy coming. Highly recommend.
