I've been a patient of Dr. Holder for several months. She is thoughtful, compassionate, and, most…read moreof all, a highly knowledgeable dermatologist. I recently moved to the area, and I'm so grateful that I discovered her practice! Dr. Holder recommended Fraxel to treat some of the issues I had been experiencing. I have a fairly low pain tolerance, and she ensured I would be comfortable during the procedure (I've already been back for the second of three treatments...so she kept her promise!) I'm not only thrilled with the results of my treatments but also thrilled to be a part of her practice. Her energy and enthusiasm for her work, deep knowledge, and commitment to her patients are all remarkable. She also spent an incredible amount of time getting to know me before she said a word about my skin concerns. And when I sent one of my family members to her practice, they came away loving her just as much as I do. I wasn't surprised. :) I love that Holder was raised right here in Park Slope. It was clear from the first few minutes of our initial conversation that she cares deeply about this community and her patients. Dr. Holder is a gem--and she is right here in Park Slope. I'll never go anywhere else. :)

Dr. Holder is a perfectionist with such attention to detail that you come away feeling like you've…read moretruly never seen a dermatologist before coming to this practice. Here's what I've experienced at this practice and why I recommend it so wholeheartedly: - I first came to Dr. Holder's practice in 2023, wanting to try botox for the first time. It was a new experience, and Dr. Holder listened carefully to understand my expectations and then patiently talked me through everything that I should expect. The way she directs her team before, during, and after procedures instills so much confidence, especially for first time patients. - At the beginning of this year, hormones were wreaking havoc on my skin and giving me with terrible acne and rosacea. Fed up, I sent Dr. Holder's office an email, and they agreed to see me right away. They were so responsive and reassuring. Also, I really appreciate that Dr. Holder doesn't try to sell a custom line of products -- she just thoughtfully directs you to a routine using good old fashioned French pharmacy products and prescriptions when needed. - I've seen Dr. Holder for peels and laser treatments, and I'm just so grateful for how thorough and detail-oriented she is in each of these procedures. She takes prep and after care very seriously. She looks closely at the treatment areas, takes her time, and talks through the treatment so that there are no surprises or unexpected discomfort. Truly amazing bedside manner that instills so much confidence. - Dr. Holder's team is just as amazing as she is. All of the staff are communicative, warm, and hospitable. They're also incredibly smart, detail-oriented, and thoughtful during procedures -- hardly a surprise, but such a rare experience in this city. Since I started seeing Dr. Holder, my skin is noticeably brighter, my complexion is more even, and for the first time in my life, I feel like I have some control over my skin sensitivities. I'm so glad I found this practice, and I hope Dr. Holder never retires!

Truly the most painless, effective and enjoyable Botox session I've had, with surprisingly long-lasting results that surpassed all others to date, and somehow accomplished with fewer units and at a reasonable cost . She can be somewhat difficult to reach, but WELL worth the effort... I feel I've found "my" Botox doc, and am just crossing my fingers that she stays put so I can become one of her loyal "regulars."

I booked a hydrafacial 2-3 months in advance so I could get it right before my engagement photo shoot. The night before, they canceled my appointment saying that the esthetician doesn't work on the day of the week that I booked. It was such short notice that I couldn't find any alternative spa to get a hydrafacial. They had literal months to let me know in advance, but waited to cancel until it was too late for me to find another option. Not to mention that they were allowing reservations for a day of the week that the esthetician wasn't even there. Incredibly rude, disorganized, and unprofessional. Would give 0 stars if I could.

I told the person who I believe is their manager that I'm not going to tip for a medical service administered by a licensed nurse, and he gave me pushback. Bizarre. Given the high turnover of injectors here, I've wondered if they're paying their nurses adequately or making them depend on tips like restaurant workers. Other than that, the service is fine and the discounts are great, but I haven't gone here since the more experienced injectors left. They don't advertise the credentials of their staff, so I've had to sleuth on social media to gauge how qualified and experienced the listed nurses are. Not a good sign.

Lumena/Jen is great…read more I have never done any lasers/microneedling/chemical peels/etc. so I was nervous for my first laser experience. Jen knew I was nervous so she explained every step of the laser genesis process like what she was doing and why. Later that week I attended a wedding and people said my skin was "glowing" and "radiant." I came back and got a mix of IPL and Clear + Brilliant. Again, Jen did great. I wasn't too red afterwards and the next day my boyfriend commented that my skin looked more "youthful." In the future, I'd schedule the Lumena special where Jen customizes treatment based on your skin's needs. 10/10 recommend. Prices are reasonable and you can rest easy knowing you are in capable hands.

There is a reason it seems like there is always a new front desk person and she has such a hard time finding "competent" help. She doesn't train front desk people and expects them to read her mind. She doesn't like when they are honest to clients about packages. She prefers packages to expire and then never tells the client even though she says they don't expire. Expects a mind reader. Lies and says she is sick when she isn't or doesn't want to see a client. Or blames the receptionist for her mistake. Have heard a lot of stories of "sensitive" receptionists because she makes them cry. She shouldn't be allowed to run a business I wouldn't trust her to do anything on me.

Instead of answering my question, the staff repeatedly tried to sell me a six-session package. I asked the same question multiple times, but they kept avoiding it and continued pushing the package.

When I called to understand why, they refused to discuss it and simply hung up on me. I found the customer service to be unprofessional and disrespectful.

Unfortunately, this experience left me with no confidence in their service
