Conveniently located to serve the Connecticut, New York, and the Tri-State area
Are you unhappy with your facial appearance? As we age, the skin loses elasticity and begins to sag, causing wrinkles and folds that can make us appear much older than our age.
For many patients, it is incredibly frustrating to look in the mirror, and see a face that looks much older than we feel on the inside. Dr. Elsa Raskin in Greenwich, CT, we offer facial fillers and injectables to combat worn out skin.
How do injectables work?
Injectables reduce the signs of ageing without resorting to surgery. Injectables tend to fall into two categories:- Injectables that use botulinum toxin type A, which relaxes the facial muscles that cause lines and wrinkles.
- Injectables that use dermal fillers which plump out the skin, reducing sagging and deep set lines and folds.

I had the pleasure of seeing her about 15 years ago originally and subsequently referred a family member to her for several injectable appointments and a blepharoplasty. She created an amazing outcome and truly has an eye for perfection and strives for it with each patient. I reached out to her for a consultation for myself after many years of contemplation and about 4 surgical consultation with other surgeons in NYC and NJ. I was seen in the office within 1 week of my call and likely could have been seen even soon had my schedule permitted. The office staff was friendly and accommodating. I was greeted by Dr. Raskin with a warm and genuine friendly welcome. She took measurements and offered several options based off of desired results that I provided to her that were photos found online. As a professional in the surgical field, I can confidently say that my experience in the surgical center was extraordinary. I felt tended to as if I were the only patient having surgery that day. The nurses in the pre op and recovery room as well as OR staff and anesthesiologist were amazing. I walked out of the hospital about 2 hours after my surgery feeling great. Now, 2 month out of surgery, I will say that this is one of the best decisions I have made in my adult life and a majority of that statement is owed to the expertise, and artistry of Dr Raskin. I am thrilled with the result, the shape, symmetry and overall care that I have received and would recommend anyone to see her in consultation, she is a true gem.
