Dr. Ravipati was recommended to me by my esthetician. As a brunette with pale skin, I have been battling pesky extra fur all of my life, basically, and finally decided enough is enough and went to see Dr. Ravipati for some laser hair removal. During my initial consult, I let it slip that I'd once had a terrible sunburn due to an unfortunate visit with a tanning bed. He then gave me a lesson in the structure of the epidermis, various types of sunlight (UVB, UVA, etc.) and what the best sunscreens are. There was NEVER any pressure to purchase product from him- a nice change from a lot of places. He is amazing. He is attentive, informative, warm, professional and very thorough. And FAST! He makes what is understandably a mildly uncomfortable experience as painless as it can be. I have rarely had bruising, swelling, or even redness when he's done - he's THAT good. I could not be happier with both his style of work and the subsequent results.
