" I'd like to thank Dr. Pilest for treating the most severe case of Rosacea I've seen and experienced. He treated me with such understanding and had me ready for a very important "Generation" famly photo in just 1 week. I am very impressed. Dr. Pilest can help anyone in the war on this painful and unsightly problem. The pictures turned out great!"

Additionally, everyone should know the wonderful results they can achieve with Thermage, by Dr. Pilest. I am so excited about this treatment I am carrying around my before pictures which were taken in your office. I am 2 months post treatment and the results are beyond amazing. The next few months should only reveal more incredible results. I am telling everyone how excited I am about this procedure and you are more than welcome to share my joy with your patients."

"This is the only place I can come where my treatments are done right. I've been to every dermatologist in San Diego and none of them come close to Dr. Pilest's ability. I'll drive the 2 hours gladly to come to the best."

"I was very pleased with how you handled my Thermage yesterday. I already see results particularly around the chin and I am so pleased. You were very helpful and answered lots of questions and concerns.

Again, I had a very positive experience and enjoyed your staff and apprEicated your time and help with the thermage. I was quite nervous and it went so well and so easy."
Thermage - Dr. Ginny Gordon, Irvine


"I'm one of Dr. Pilest's long time patients, seeing him for my first time in 1990, I believe, when he was in Fountain Valley. It seems I've grown with him, as well as his practice.

My first Botox treatment was just about 8 years ago and prior to FDA approval of Botox, I was having Collagen injections and numerous other 'cutting edge' procedures. As new procedures are developed, I'm willing to try them, with Dr. Pilest always recommending what the most appropriate procedure for my skin type will be.

Fast forward and this brings me to Thermage. It's been about 2-1/2 months since I had my Thermage (face & neck) treatment done. What I've noticed, is a gradual firmness in my cheek, jawline and under my chin area. There's one area that I've been checking regularly and that's the area where my jawline meets the front of my ears. A friend of mine swears she can tell a woman's age by counting the number of small wrinkles that run vertically in this area (much like a trees age can be determined by counting it's rings)!! So, of course, that's where I check weekly... to see if the lines are less noticeable .... and I'm happy to say, they are !!

Right now, because I'm so pleased with these results, I'll soon be scheduling my appointments for Thermage Eyes and Thermage Body (my tummy area).

Because I have a condition known as Vitiligo, I need to be very careful with the procedures that I undergo. They must be gentle enough not to make my condition more noticeable. That's why Dr. Pilest recommended the SilkPeel for me. I'm so glad he did. I'll be having my 3rd treatment soon, by Minoo. I can only say that my skin radiates after she is done. When I can go without make-up and feel good about it, you know it's got to be working.

I could go on and on about how pleased I am with everything Dr. Pilest has done for me over the years, but I recommend you start your own history with him. He is super and his qualified staff is the best. A loyal patient,"

"I had been to see many Dermatologists, even an Internationally renowned Dermatologist in Beverly Hills and only Dr. Pilest was able to clear my skin. I am forever grateful."
