Ryan Greene, MD, PhD, leads one of the premier plastic surgery practices in South Florida. As a laser and aesthetic medical device specialist, he established a laser center in order to offer the most cutting-edge non-invasive treatments to his patients.

It is his belief that Coolsculpting is perhaps the most revolutionary non-surgical treatment to become available in over a decade.
