For more than 35 years, Cosmetic Laser Dermatology has been honored as San Diego’s leading destination for beautiful skin. Known for combining experience, innovation, artistry, and personalized care, the practice inspires confidence and delivers transformative results in patients every day.

Led by founder and medical director Dr Mitchel Goldman, the practice is proud to now have eight expert board-certified cosmetic dermatologists—Doctors Goldman, Butterwick, Groff, Fabi, Wu, Boen, Zubair, and Darji. Voted #1 in San Diego for nine consecutive years by the San Diego Union-Tribune and La Jolla Light, these nationally recognized physicians guide every treatment plan with expertise patients can learn more about here.

Cosmetic Laser Dermatology is proud to offer six signature treatment combinations that cannot be found anywhere else. Proprietary Take10 and Take5 treatments use a combination of three or more lasers to remove five to ten years of aging in a single session. Additional exclusive options include ThermiSculpt³ to contour the neck and jawline, Cool³ Body Sculpting to remove unwanted fat pockets, TotalTat³ for advanced tattoo removal, and the glow-enhancing 3xFacial.

Beautiful, radiant skin is also supported by medical aesthetician Farzaneh Momeni-Salami, who offers a highly personalized approach to skin health. Her advanced treatments include HydraFacial, JetPeel, SaltFacial, DermaSweep, chemical peels, customized facials, and dermaplaning, allowing patients to improve tone, texture, and luminosity through tailored aesthetic services.

It is never too early to start thinking about minimizing the effects of aging. Prejuvenation treatments such as Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) helps to smooth tone and texture and stimulate production of collagen and elastic fibers from within. At Cosmetic Laser Dermatology, all treatments are performed by board certified dermatologists. Injectable fillers and bio-stimulators are used to restore volume to the cheeks, define the jawline, soften lines around the mouth, treat under-eye circles, rejuvenate aging hands, and refine facial contours.

Recognizing that patients are more than just a face, Cosmetic Laser Dermatology offers a full range of body treatments as well. Options include liposuction, quad sculpting using two CoolSculpting Elite devices simultaneously, and skin tightening with Sofwave, Thermage FLX, Ultherapy Prime, and signature ThermiSculpt to sculpt and lift the neck and jawline in a single treatment. The practice also offers ThermiVa for non-surgical vaginal rejuvenation, advanced cellulite treatments, and comprehensive vein treatments led by Dr. Goldman, author of the leading textbook on sclerotherapy.

Beyond patient care, Cosmetic Laser Dermatology plays a critical role in advancing dermatologic medicine worldwide. The practice has conducted more than 300 FDA clinical research studies spanning anti-aging, acne, skin cancer, and vein conditions, giving patients access to innovative treatments while reinforcing its leadership through ongoing clinical research.

With more than 60 laser, light, and energy-based devices—more than almost any cosmetic practice in the world—Cosmetic Laser Dermatology creates truly customized treatment plans. Real patient results can be viewed throughout the before-and-after gallery.
