I recently had the pleasure of seeing Dr. James Chelnis at his Staten Island location. Dr. Chelnis is a highly knowledgeable and professional physician who took the time to thoroughly explain the procedure that I was considering. I had filler injections done, and I am absolutely thrilled with the results. His attention to detail and skill made me feel completely at ease throughout the entire process. I'm already looking forward to returning for more cosmetic procedures in the future. I highly recommend Dr. Chelnis to anyone seeking exceptional care and results.

I can't thank Dr. Chelnis and his team enough for making me look and feel fantastic! I had blepharoplasty on my upper lids, and the results are amazing. The office staff at the NJ location were incredibly helpful and kind, making the entire process smooth and comfortable. The surgical team was exceptional—from intake to recovery, they were professional, attentive, and genuinely caring. I even overheard some of their conversations and could tell that they really care about each other, which made me feel even more at ease. Truly a great group of people, and I would highly recommend them!
