What is Dr. Golosow's consultation process like?
During a personalized consultation, Dr. Golosow discusses patient goals, explores appropriate treatment options, and helps determine an appropriate and realistic timeline for procedures, accommodating factors like work, travel, and holiday gatherings. This early planning also allows patients to understand the expected recovery process and ensures the chosen treatment aligns with their facial anatomy and aesthetic goals.

What should patients know about recovery and planning for procedures?
Every surgical procedure has its own unique recovery timeline, with some requiring several weeks or longer for swelling and other temporary effects to resolve. Advance planning is essential to accommodate these recovery times, allowing patients to plan around work, travel, and upcoming events. Factors like cooler weather and reduced sun exposure in the fall can make recovery more convenient, making it easier to follow post-treatment recommendations and protect healing skin. The ideal timing for any aesthetic procedure depends on the specific procedure and each patient's individual needs.

What is Dysport and what results can I expect?
Dysport is a quick, non-surgical treatment that temporarily relaxes targeted facial muscles to soften the appearance of expression lines, commonly used for lines between the brows. It aims to create a smoother, more refreshed appearance while maintaining natural facial movement. Results develop over the days following treatment, and it is an option for patients seeking a subtle refresh without significant downtime.

What is Dr. Golosow's approach to skincare?
Dr. Golosow recommends Obagi medical-grade skincare products to repair the effects of sun exposure and restore complexion, addressing concerns like uneven pigmentation, dullness, and dryness. She emphasizes that fall is an ideal time to recommit to a consistent skincare routine for a healthier, more balanced complexion. A personalized skincare regimen, combined with professionally recommended products and daily sun protection, can make a meaningful difference in skin appearance and feel, addressing existing concerns and protecting against future damage. Small, consistent steps can promote healthier-looking skin as seasons change.

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)

$85

Payments

3

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Lorraine M. Golosow received $85 across 3 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 ABBVIE 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?”
