Dr. Michaels is a godsend. In 2004, a lipoma emerged above my right eye. I didn't know what it was initially, but when I inquired about it's removal, each doctor gave me the response, "oh you're going to get a scar, if we remove it". As a result, I left it alone.
It bothered me, a great deal. I quit modeling completely, I refused to let anyone take photos of me, even at family events. I grew my hair long and wore a side part to cover it, despite my hatred of having straight hair. I tried my best to hide it.
Then one day, I just decided to cut my hair and wear it in it's naturally curly state. Of course you know that made it more noticeable to my eye, even if others claimed they never noticed.
I searched for dermatologist. I went to one in Warwick. She came in, said she didn't notice it. told me not to worry, and sent my a bill, after I paid 35 dollars for nothing.
Finally, I found doctor Michaels. He was honest about the possibilities of scarring and gave me some alternatives. We initially tried Kenalog, which didn't work for me.
On the next appointment, I told him, "Dr. Michaels, I think I'll go the scar route, I hate this thing!"
Right then and there, his assistant prepped me, he scrubbed and got to work. It was painless and the incision was about 1 centimeter. There is no more protrusion on my forehead and barely a scar.
I am so grateful that I went to him! He's knowledgeable and I think because he is a handsome gentleman, he is sensitive to those who are conscious about their looks, whereas others could care less, because it's not them(the doctor in Warwick). He gives life to the meaning to the adage "the hands of a surgeon."
