Philosophy

"Helping people transform their dream look into a beautiful reality is my professional passion. Perhaps it requires my assistance to smooth and tone aging skin. Reshape a nose, chin, or neckline. Enhance the bust. Or slim the torso.

I encourage you to discuss your expectations and concerns with me. I want you to feel confident in my surgical skill and assured by my appreciation of the human body as an art form.

I hope that as you read the descriptions of the procedures available, you will be amazed on at least three levels: the remarkable results now possible, that most of them can be performed on an outpatient basis, and how safe they have become.

I look forward to helping you achieve the body image you feel would be most in tune with the essence within."     - Dr. Zienowicz

Skin and Scars: Dr. Zienowicz insists on using the latest laser technology, including the Erbium, Yag, and CO lasers, reducing wrinkles and lines for the most aesthetically pleasing results. His laser skin resurfacing also includes a complete skin care program - to help you enjoy the smoothest, youngest-looking skin.

New healthy skin, lying in wait just beneath the surface, is revealed to minimize the appearance of age lines, wrinkles, and uneven pigmentation. Acne scars are dramatically improved or entirely eliminated. Damage inflicted on the skin by overexposure to the sun is effectively reversed. Youthful skin resiliency is recaptured. All through the application of laser light, expertly timed to achieve the desired result.

While Dr. Zienowicz' mastery can be appreciated in any mirror, its more profound impact requires greater reflection. Marked by an inner glow, increased self-confidence, and a renewed sense of youthfulness, patients insist it changes their lives. Of course, there's never a reason to change who you are. But when a surgeon's skill can improve the way you feel about who you are, what a gift that is.
