Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Jeff Rapaport

Sourced directly from Dr. Jeff Rapaport's social posts and replies.

Is hair loss a common side effect of GLP-1 weight loss medications?
Patients are not imagining hair loss when losing weight on a GLP-1. Rapid or significant weight loss can sometimes trigger temporary hair shedding, often related to changes in nutrition, metabolism, and the stress of weight loss itself—not necessarily the GLP-1 medication directly. At Rapaport Hair Institute, a personalized evaluation helps identify what's contributing to hair shedding and determine the right treatment plan. Patients should not wait until their hair becomes noticeably thinner before seeking help.
Why is the neck an important area for anti-aging treatments?
The neck often reveals a person's age, as loose skin, lines, and loss of definition can quickly show signs of aging. Dr. Rapaport designs individualized treatments to revive and rejuvenate the neck based on each patient's skin and unique needs.
What is Dr. Rapaport's approach to diagnosing different types of hair loss?
Dr. Rapaport emphasizes that hair loss is complex and not a single diagnosis. Understanding why it's happening is the first step toward appropriate treatment. He explains various forms of alopecia—from androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata to traction alopecia, scarring alopecia, and telogen effluvium. Identifying the underlying cause matters, especially for forms that can permanently damage follicles, making early diagnosis very important.
What is the difference between scarring and non-scarring hair loss?
Some types of hair loss are non-scarring, meaning the follicles remain present and regrowth may be possible. Other forms of hair loss can permanently damage the follicles, making early diagnosis especially important for these cases.
What is Dr. Rapaport's perspective on Alopecia Areata and its treatment?
Dr. Rapaport explains that alopecia areata is primarily an immune-system problem, not just a hair problem. He notes that new Phase 3 research exploring upadacitinib for severe alopecia areata signals an important step forward in immune-targeted hair-loss treatment, suggesting a completely different era of hair-loss treatment may be emerging. His approach to hair restoration starts with understanding the cause of hair loss, then creating an individualized treatment plan.
What is Dr. Rapaport's approach to treating eczema and atopic dermatitis?
Dr. Rapaport explains that eczema isn’t necessarily the same disease biologically in every patient, and atopic dermatitis treatment is evolving towards a more personalized approach. Dermatologists now have an expanding range of targeted options—including therapies involving IL-13, IL-31, and JAK signaling pathways—moving away from a one-size-fits-all strategy. The future of eczema care will increasingly focus on understanding the individual patient: disease severity, symptoms, medical history, safety considerations, and the biology driving inflammation. For individuals struggling with recurring eczema or dermatitis, proper diagnosis by a dermatologist is the first step toward finding the right treatment.
What is Rapaport Dermatology's microbiome-focused approach to eczema and dermatitis?
Dr. Rapaport explains that eczema involves more than just dry skin; in atopic dermatitis, the skin barrier and skin microbiome can become disrupted. Research has linked eczema flares with changes in microbial diversity and increased colonization by Staphylococcus aureus. Rapaport Dermatology's microbiome-focused care for eczema and dermatitis takes a more targeted approach, looking beyond the visible irritation to support the skin barrier and the delicate ecosystem living on the skin. The goal is calmer, healthier, more resilient skin and better long-term management of eczema-prone skin.
How does Masseter Botox work for facial slimming?
Botox can slim the face, but Masseter Botox does not remove fat or shave bone. It works by relaxing the masseter muscles, which can gradually reduce their prominence, resulting in less muscle bulk, a more refined contour, and a softer, slimmer-looking lower face in the right patient. Facial slimming treatment starts with understanding what is creating the width—muscle, fat, bone structure, or a combination.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$304

Payments

9

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Jeff Rapaport received $304 across 9 payments in 2024. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was MERZ NORTH AMERICA, INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”

What areas of care does Dr. Jeff Rapaport cater to?
Dr. Rapaport specializes in dermatology and cosmetic skin surgery. He treats various skin conditions and performs procedures such as subcision for acne scars and PRP for hair loss. He also appears to offer general dermatological care. Also focuses on skin cancer diagnosis and treatment. Believes that losing weight does not mean patients have to ignore their hair concerns, advocating for proactive evaluation and treatment.

He believes this order of treatment matters more than people generally realize. Emphasizes that skin treatment should never be a one-size-fits-all solution. He offers comprehensive skin evaluations to assess pigmentation and individual concerns, determine contributing factors, and create customized treatment plans designed for each patient's unique skin. The first step to healthier, more even-looking skin is understanding its actual needs.

Every treatment at Rapaport Dermatology & Aesthetics is customized to the patient's facial anatomy and aesthetic goals, aiming for results that enhance features without overpowering them.
