Statement: Dr. Mitchel Goldman is a world-renowned, board-certified dermatologist who has pioneered countless innovations in dermatology. A former president of the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery, Dr. Goldman is currently the director of the organization’s fellowship program. Known for his expertise across the full spectrum of dermatological procedures, Dr. Goldman specializes in vein treatments, injectables, and laser skin resurfacing.
In addition to being the founder and medical director of his San Diego medical spa, Cosmetic Laser Dermatology, Dr. Goldman is the medical director of West Dermatology, a prestigious network of dermatology offices throughout California, Nevada, and Arizona.
Dr. Goldman has been ranked as number 1 on Newsweek’s list of America’s Best Cosmetic Dermatologists for both 2022 and 2023.
Dr. Goldman is the inventor of many laser procedures that have transformed the way physicians treat their patients, including Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and the Q-switched alexandrite laser. He has also helped secure approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for several dermal fillers, including Qwo cellulite treatment, Voluma for the chin, and RHA for cheeks. Dr. Goldman’s research, beginning in 1989, also led to the FDA approval of many lasers, fillers, and neuromodulators like Botox, Dysport, Xeomin.
His dedication to research has made Dr. Goldman an invaluable resource to the medical community. He has authored more than 350 publications in peer-reviewed medical journals and 14 medical textbooks on such subjects as aesthetic surgery, dermatology, cellulite, sclerotherapy, and ambulatory phlebectomy, many of which are seen as the authoritative texts on their respective topics.
Dr. Goldman graduated summa cum laude from Boston University before earning his medical degree from Stanford University. He completed an internship in internal medicine at the University of California, San Diego and his residency in dermatology at the University of California, Los Angeles.
Board certified by the American Board of Dermatology, Dr. Goldman has received many accolades over his 38 years of practice, including a Presidential Award for his contributions to research and teaching from the American Society for Dermatologic Surgery.
Dr. Goldman is a volunteer clinical professor at the University of California, San Diego and an honorary professor of dermatology at the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences.
He is also the founder and president of the American College of Phlebology (vein treatment) and a member of over 30 professional organizations.
When he’s not practicing medicine, you can find Dr. Goldman lecturing both nationally and abroad on innovative aesthetic techniques. He is also an associate editor of several respected medical journals, including Dermatologic Surgery and Cosmetic Dermatology.
Dr. Goldman is an avid cycler and also likes to hike, ski, and scuba dive. He lives in Cardiff, California, with his wife, Laura, and is a proud father and doting grandfather.
