Monika Kiripolsky, MD FAAD FAACS

Monica is the best!!! She is beyond good at her job. She is always super helpful and makes the time, even last minute. She is so helpful, and makes sure her patients are happy and feel their best. I go there super often, but I would so far as to say I enjoy visiting her office because she is so nice and so good. She even gave me her number to reach her easier in case something came up, which is so sweet and caring. I have been to tens of dermatologists, but this is as good as it gets. Highly recommended.

Dr. Kiripolsky is a magician! Her technique is unparalleled. She immediately knew exactly what I needed to have a natural restored youth. This is the third visit I’ve had from her and I she’s the only Doctor I completely trust!
Forehead: I’ve had 20 cc’s of Botox administered to remove my 11’s (common term used for the two vertical lines in between the eyebrows.) Dr. Kiripolsky’s placement of the product was like nothing I’ve ever had, using a «V’ formation to give a slight brow lift while removing the lines. The result was soft and natural, and I could definitely notice a difference.
Eyes: I’ve visited other doctors in the area to have my Tear Troughs filled with Juvederm. Although I liked this other Dr’s work, I had what’s known as the «tyndall effect» as a result from the HA, which is a slight bluish hue that is visible through the skin. The tear troughs are known for being a challenging area to inject due to the skin being fragile and at times, translucent. I immediately made an appointment with Dr. K. once the Juvederm completely had broken down. I couldn’t be happier with the results! no bluish undertones, and the filler rests completely smooth and fills the lines in nicely. I no longer have those bags under my eyes that gives you the «tired» or «aged» appearance.
Face: Nasalabial Folds. These are the lines that begin from the corner of your nose to the corners of the lips that are sometimes referred to as «smile lines.» When I turned 30, I noticed a deep impression that was making me look quite old. Dr. K. informed me that she definitely could use filler to soften the lines, but a soft crease is natural in this area to give me the best results.
Lips: I’ve always wanted to enhance my lips but shied away from it for a host of reasons. Naturally I have a lack of natural cupid’s bow, and asymmetry in my upper lip. This is the treatment that I am the most excited about because Dr. K was able to balance out both sides of my upper lip AND give me a natural cupid’s bow!
All and all, people have said I look 24 – 26 years old and NO ONE would ever assume I’ve had ANYTHING done! Couldn’t recommend a better doctor who takes her time, I’ve never felt rushed and her bed side manner is amazing!

«10 years of anger gone in 60 seconds» Dr. K is a true Needle Whisperer & lives up to the name! I have many girlfriends who have all sorts of injections, but I haven’t really done this before (32) so she made my first time a real breeze! Very gentle as far a needles go, and surprisingly fast! I needed 40 or 50 units as first time for my forehead. I felt good throughout the process and then a few days later realized my angry lines in my forehead have all but disappeared. I look, literally like I never had my last relationship. Dr. K. is a miracle worker god-​send. Do yourself a favor and do not try to save a few bucks and mess up your face with cheaper less quality injections & nurses rather than Doctors. A+++ will be BACK. and this time, not so angry! LOL

Oh my gosh, Dr. Kiripolsky is an ARTIST! I walked into her office as a 30 year old woman, entered some kind of cosmetic time warp, got a little Botox here, a little Voluma there, a little Juvederm here AND there, and walked out a 22 year old girl!
She explained all the procedures very thoroughly, didn’t try to upsell me like other doctors have in the past, and really took her time with the fillers to reduce my discomfort. I barely felt a pinch, and best of all, I don’t look fake at all! Just… Better. :)

Incredible training. Very intelligent and knowledgeable. Highly skilled. Dr. K. is undoubtedly the best dermatologist I have ever seen. She truly cares about her patients and ensures that you are getting the best care possible for your skin. I drive up to LA from OC to see Dr. K. because of her talent. I honestly searched OC for a dermatologist that understood what I was asking for… I wanted to reverse the sun damage and just look more youthful. I needed guidance and not one doctor in OC that I saw was able to help me. They all sold me on skin care lines that quite honestly, didn’t work. In fact, some actually caused cystic acne which was beyond frustrating. When I saw Dr. K. I immediately knew she understood my concerns and what my ultimate goals were for my skin. I am beyond thrilled with what she has been able to do with my skin. It is seriously glowing and incredibly healthy looking. I look and feel younger because of what she has been able to do to help get rid of any sun damage. She is a miracle worker and I am so grateful that she has helped me to achieve the beautifully skin I have always wanted. And… best yet, make up application is so easy now! Mascara, blush and lipstick… and no one can believe I am not wearing foundation! If you want excellent results from a doctor that will listen and advise based on what’s best for you, Dr. K. is the one to see!

Doctor Monika, as she is affectionately called by her patients is an unparalleled Dermatologist. I cannot say enough good about her. I travel from Paris and NYC just to see Monika Kiripolsky, and will not settle for any other Doctor. She is absolutely lovely, and far beyond talented. You trust her, and feel very much at ease. I highly recommend her for any and all of her services, you will never be disappointed, I am always amazed by her. Many of my friends have become as loyal to her as I am.

I recently traveled two hours from San Diego to Beverly Hills to see Dr. K. Her reputation precedes her. She was amazing! I felt comfortable in her care because she took the time to explain everything to me and really cared about how important it was to me to look and feel good for my 20 year High School Reunion. I wanted a natural look and she delivered! I’m naturally thin and over the years I lost a lot of volume to my face. She put Voluma in my cheeks and lips and Sculptra in my temples. It was exactly what in envisioned. My reunion was a success. I looked and felt amazing about myself. Thank you Dr. K. I highly recommend seeking Dr. K for any or all cosmetic/​laser treatments. She will not disappoint.

Dr. Kiripolsky is seriously amazing. She is extremely good at what she does; a true artist. Not only does she have a great eye, and soft touch, but also a very warm, sweet, and caring personality. Hands-​down the best dermatologist in LA! If you want to look your absolute best, see Dr. Kiripolsky. Trust me, you’ll thank me after! :o)

Dr. Monika Kiripolsky has been treating a scar on my cheek and it has pretty much faded away now. She has a gentle touch with the needle to treat my crows feet with Botox. I’m ready for my high school reunion now!

Board-​Certified Dermatolgist, Fellowship-​trained Laser and Cosmetic Surgeon, Dr. Monika Kiripolsky, should be a household name for those of us who need a little boost to keep our fab self fabulous. I’ve searched far and wide for someone like her, expert experience, artistic, and listens! I signed up as a patient for fillers for lost volume, hopeful but dubious, from experience with other Derms that she would come through. Come through she did… and with flying colors! Everyone keeps commenting how I look 20 years younger as well as great cheekbones! Let’s not even mention those who already think I am 20 yrs younger;) I am beyond ecstatic and I will NOT be going anywhere else, and if she moves her practice, I will definitely follow! The top reason being she a consummate artist with the use of fillers, Botox and laser, Dr. Kiripolsky just doesn’t do the average, the suggested. Such as though you’re a fair blue-​eyed blond, when you go to a make up artist and you get the exact same make up as the browned eyed brunette before you. Dr. Kiripolsky assesses YOUR individual face to enhance YOUR beautiful you. No one size fits all at her practice. I have had trouble with this before, just because something looks great on someone else does not mean it will look great on you. With an expert eye for YOUR unique facial structure, Dr. K subtly enhances, creating a fresh youthfulness and often a sees a tweak that even better defines YOUR individual look, still keeping you looking natural and fabulous, and all on your lunch hour with no downtime! Geez what more could a girl ask for?! I highly recommend Dr Kiripolsky, go get your fab you, you will get a 6Doctor with a 5star experience.

Dr. Monika is simply amazing!!! I could not say enough good things about her! She is everything that one would want in a cosmetic dermatologist– she’s a true artist, who is able to address any and every skin/​aging concern. She was incredibly patient with me, to explain what options are available (not intimidating or pushy) — and helped me to lay out a plan that was feasible, to give me the results I desired. She uses cutting edge technology, so that you are assured to be getting the best and latest of whatever is available– from laser, to injectables. I am so grateful to have found her– I can truly say, I have never looked better!

Before I met Dr. Kiripolsky almost a year ago when I had acne and would constantly wear makeup to try to cover it because I felt so self conscious about my skin. Since going to her she has taken her time to get me the right products and treatments for my skin. Within the first month of seeing her I could already tell a difference in my skin. I cannot thank her enough because fast forward to now my acne is GONE! I get constant compliments on my skin and no one can imagine I used to have acne. Dr. Kiriplosky is the reason of why I feel comfortable enough to go out without makeup and actually prefer to now since my skin is clear!
