Debra B Luftman, MD

I visited Dr. Luftman years ago about dark undereye circles. She recommended Juvederm injections under both eyes. After the procedure, my right eye looked fantastic, but my left eye had a dark gray indented line going from the inside corner of the eye down my cheek. People told me I looked like I’d been whacked in the face. I went back to Dr. Luftman’s office, and she said it looked like bruising, and should go away soon, but a month later — still there. I called Dr. Luftman’s office again, and the receptionist said that Dr. Luftman was suddenly booked up for several months. I found that hard to believe because the first two times I called there, they got me in very quickly. And I think dermatologists should take more responsibility when they do something that creates problems on someone’s face, even if they’ve suddenly become busy.
Anyway, I had to go to a different dermatologist. He said it looked like Dr. Luftman had done everything correctly with the undereye injections, but the procedure was fairly new, and the complications were still being figured out. He gave me some options for possibly improving things, but they all seemed risky, so I just lived looking like I’d been hit in the face until the Juvederm finally dissolved on its own.

I highly recommend Dr. Luftman. I’ve been suffering from acne and acne scars for as long as I can remember, and I’ve seen top Beverly Hills doctors with unfortunately no progress. She was very patient, didn’t try to sell me her own products (unlike other doctors), and recommended that I do facials with Linda. Linda is awesome! I absolutely recommend her for facials. Honestly, trust Linda with your face.

I was in LA with a terrible rash and my friend recommended that I see Dr Luftman. I was squeezed into her busy schedule and though she was busy i found her to be friendly and attentive. She treated my rash gave me my Rx and i was on my way and yes my rash is gone

I took my young daughter to see Dr. Luftman for a mole on her back. She made us wait too long in her office and then when she came in she had no patience or bedside manner. She insisted that I have the mole removed. She scared me, so I agreed. Her nurse brought in a needle, which my daughter looked at and started to cry. Dr. Luftman then told my daughter that she doesn’t listen to her own children crying, so she won’t listen to her cry either and when she was ready that I could come and get her. It was a terrible experience. I eventually convinced my daughter to let the doctor remove it. The results came back and were reported to me by the nurse (Dr. Luftman couldn’t take the time to talk to me). I was confused about the results, soI went to visit another dermatologist for a second opinion. He told me that there was no reason for the mole to have been removed. My daughter is now left with a physical and emotional scar. TERRIBLE experience — this doctor should stop worrying so much about cosmetics and take a lesson in kindness.
