La Jolla's Nasrin Mani, M.D., Named an America's Top Doc by U.S. News & World Report and Castle Connolly Medical

    LA JOLLA, CA, September 07, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- One of America's Top Doctors is right here in our own San Diego neighborhood. Nasrin Mani, M.D., Board Certified Ophthalmological Surgeon and founder/ director of La Jolla Cosmetic Laser Clinic, was chosen by U.S. News & World Report and partner Castle Connolly Medical Ltd. as one America's Top Doctors from a peer nominated list of specialty U.S. physicians.

U.S. News Top Doctors was developed in collaboration with Castle Connolly Medical Ltd., publisher of America's Top Doctors. Top Doctors are identified by specialties and sub-specialties and are nominated by their peers as physicians they themselves would choose for superior care levels and expertise.

Dr. Mani is a fast-rising popular physician within her peer group, medical and aesthetic patients and industry leaders. In 2010 she was chosen as one of San Diego's Top Doctors, selected as a Certified Regional Trainer for Suneva Medical's permanent dermal filler Artefill, and this year chosen as a professional Speaker for Medicis' Restylane, Perlane and Dysport and Allergan's Juvederm and Botox injectables. She maintains a position of Medical Faculty Member for training physicians in the use of Radiesse (Merz Aesthetics). In 2010 she received the Health Hero Award presented by the American Melanoma Foundation.

Dr. Mani is the key physician in two practices. Her Ophthalmology and Retinal Surgery practice, California Retina Associates, is located in Chula Vista. A graduate of Vanderbilt's prestigious Ophthalmology program, she completed her fellowship at the University of Southern California Doheny Eye Institute and was an investigator for the FDA in the use of silicone in eye surgery.

Her aesthetic clinic, La Jolla Cosmetic Laser Clinic, boasts a 5 year standing as a top Thermage award winner. She has developed a full coverage aesthetic line up of laser procedures, fillers and wrinkle fixes including collagen stimulator Sculptra Aesthetic, ActiveFX laser for skin resurfacing, chemical peels and acne treatment lasers such as Isolaz.

"I love what I do," Dr. Mani beams. "The delight I see on the faces of my patients when they feel so much better about their looks is a true joy for me. We all want to look the best we can and with today's technologies, the options keep increasing for better and longer lasting effects. Acne sufferers can see a huge improvement quickly and those with acne scars can look forward to much smoother skin and a brighter outlook on life."

As for her Ophthalmology surgical practice, Dr. Mani says, "Our vision is precious; yet we all tend to take it for granted that we'll see clearly forever. That's not always the case. But with the increasing tech advances, we can detect even the smallest aberration in the eye structures and take steps early to preserve vision that might have otherwise been lost. I am blessed that I've been given the capabilities to both preserve and even restore vision for so many.

"That I have been singled out for an honor such as the Top Doctor nomination by my peers is a huge validation and I thank each and every doctor who recognized me in the process."

Dr. Mani is a member of the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO), American Society of Laser, Medicine and Surgery (ASLMS), California Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, San Diego County Medical Society and American Society of Retina Specialists.

La Jolla Cosmetic Laser Clinic is a full aesthetic and medical skin care clinic offering skin tightening, dermal fillers, skin resurfacing lasers and body contouring through the new fat freezing technology from Zeltiq as well as medical skin treatments for acne and other chronic skin conditions.
