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)

$173

Payments

3

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Nadir Qazi, DO received $173 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 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?”

Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Nadir Qazi, DO

Sourced directly from Dr. Nadir Qazi, DO's social posts and replies.

What results can be expected from MicroLipo treatment for a double chin?
The practice's MicroLipo treatment is designed to instantly remove a double chin.
Source →
What is the patient experience like during picosecond laser treatment?
Picosecond laser treatment is performed without any pain and requires no downtime. A white, powder-like appearance may occur after treatment, but it washes off quickly and is not hair turning white.
Source →
How does Dr. Qazi ensure safety and comfort when treating the eye area?
For treatments around the eye area, Dr. Qazi uses eye shields to protect the pupil, allowing for safe and precise treatment of fine lines and wrinkles in very tight spots. Numbing eyedrops are administered before inserting the eye shields to ensure patient comfort.
Source →
What is Dr. Qazi's approach to subcision, especially regarding the nasolabial fold?
Dr. Qazi emphasizes precision in subcision, carefully marking treatment areas to target specific locations where scar tissue has tethered the skin down. He generally avoids going past the nasolabial fold during subcision because moving past this area can risk nerve damage and affect facial movement, making it crucial to stay within safe boundaries for both effectiveness and safety.
Source →
How does Dr. Qazi's subcision treatment work for deep, pitted scars?
Subcision is a powerful treatment for deep, pitted scars, especially those that haven’t responded to other treatments, offering long-lasting results. It works by releasing the fibrous bands that pull the skin down, which lifts the skin and allows it to heal from within. This process creates space where the body can naturally replenish lost volume through collagen stimulation, leading to smoother, more even skin over time. When done properly, subcision can transform the appearance of deep scars.
Source →
How does Dr. Qazi use TCA Cross for scar treatment, and what is the expected timeline for results?
TCA Cross is a targeted treatment that uses a high concentration of trichloroacetic acid applied directly into scars, particularly little tiny ice pick scars, to trigger a collagen response and break down the base of thick scars. This process stimulates collagen production, which typically takes about seven months to show results, gradually filling and lifting the scars over time. Deep box scars and ice pick scars will require several TCA Cross treatments to become more superficial.
Source →
What are ice pick scars, and why are they challenging to treat?
Ice pick scars are among the most challenging types of acne scars, often extending deep into the skin with narrow openings and thick walls. Treating them effectively requires a precise and customized approach.
Source →
When does Dr. Qazi recommend excision for scars, and how is it performed?
Excision is recommended for scars that are too deep or thick for other treatments. It involves surgically removing the scar tissue and carefully suturing the skin for a smoother, more even surface. Dr. Qazi assesses each scar individually, sometimes deeming excision too risky for certain wider scars at the current time.
Source →
How does Dr. Qazi use the Pinpoint CO2 Laser for scar treatment?
The Pinpoint CO2 Laser precisely targets damaged skin to break down scar tissue and stimulate collagen remodeling while leaving surrounding skin unharmed. It is ideal for tackling the depth of ice pick scars.
Source →
What are the benefits of Dr. Qazi's Erbium Laser treatment?
The Erbium Laser is a gentler resurfacing laser that removes thinner layers of damaged skin. It helps refine skin texture and improve overall tone while minimizing the risk of hyperpigmentation.
Source →
What does Dr. Qazi's detailed scar consultation process involve?
Dr. Qazi conducts a thorough scar analysis during consultations, taking time to deeply analyze scars by looking at their type, depth, location, and how the skin responds to movement and lighting. Using angled lighting, he identifies the depth and type of scarring (e.g., ice pick, boxcar, rolling). He asks patients to make different facial expressions to observe how scars behave when the skin moves and gently moves the skin to assess its elasticity and underlying structure. This comprehensive approach ensures he understands how scars interact with unique facial anatomy and helps pinpoint the root cause of each scar, which is the first and most crucial step in achieving real improvement. There is no single treatment that works for all acne scars, so this detailed mapping informs the choice of specific treatments.
