(6)

Dr. Prystowsky has over 25 years of experience in dermatology and dermatologic surgery. She taught full time in an academic setting and practiced for 15 years before starting her own medical practice. She brings research experience and pharmaceutical consulting experience to the patient in addition to her superb clinical training and patient care experience. Her medical mission is to diagnose and treat skin cancer, preferably in its earliest stage. Skin cancer screening exams are done in a thorough manner, utilizing bright light and magnification to detect even the most subtle abnormalities of the skin. Once she is certain there are no medically important growths to take care of, she will focus on the cosmetic and other aspects of dermatology to meet your skin health needs.

I agree with Victoria Beckham's facialist - A maximal routine is usually a mistake because it is kind of blindly throwing everything but the kitchen sink at your skin, hoping to cover all the bases. A routine that's simpler and targeted to your skin's needs is better. SHAPE

I had the pleasure of speaking with COOLS to explain that your Juul is equally damaging to your skin as smoking a regular cigarette.

It is with great enthusiasm that I announce that during the last week of December, 2018 my practice joined the Schweiger Dermatology enterprise. Officially I am part of its Citywide Dermatology, PLLC which is managed by Schweiger Dermatology Management Group.

Why join? It is well known that delivering health care is getting increasingly regulated and complicated which for me, as a solo practitioner, became an unwelcome distraction from patient care. I am delighted to have now handed over payroll, employee benefits, retirement plan, etc to these experienced professionals. I have known Dr. Schweiger since I moved into my office in 2010 because he was in the Parkoff building too. Dr. Schweiger expanded and has a few floors but then Dr. Robert Bernstein on Floor 11 joined and I recently joined (on Floor 7). There is a lot of Schweiger dermatology going on at 110 E 55th Street!

I sincerely hope that this transition will serve to only improve your experience at the office of Janet H. Prystowsky, MD! See you soon!

Below are photos of me taken this past year volunteering for the Skin Cancer Foundation to do skin cancer screenings at Columbus Circle. PS- I still wear my hair straight too!

REST IS BEST!
I had a blast sharing my tips for a better morning skincare routine this week on the Rise and Shine Alexa skill. This weekend I hope you relax and get plenty of rest, which is essential for healthy skin. Speaking about rest, did you know a clean pillowcase is essential when fighting fussy skin problems? Oil, dirt, and makeup build up and latch onto the pillowcase fabric fibers and in turn, love to latch onto your skin. Keep following along for more tips from [skin care/hair care] gurus!
