About
Leonard Grossman, MD
Dr. Grossman received his medical degree from New York Medical College in 1985. He went on to complete his internship in General Surgery at the Beth Israel Medical Center from 1985 to 1988. In 1995 Dr. Grossman completed his fully accredited Plastic Surgery residency at Texas A & M and the Scott & White Hospital after the completion of his fellowship in Microsurgery at the Montefiore Hospital Bronx, NY in 1990 and Burns and Reconstruction fellowship at Jacobi Hospital Bronx, NY in 1991. Since performing his first Liposuction under all local anesthesia in 1993, Dr. Grossman realized that the only way to get an ideal or “a near perfect” result in liposuction is to have the procedure done with the patient standing. With the compliment of excellent IV and local anesthesia, Dr. Grossman’s patients do not have any discomfort, anxiety or unpleasant memories of the procedure. In 1995 Dr. Grossman became the first American Plastic Surgeon to utilize Ultrasound Assisted Liposuction technology that allowed difficult areas on the body to achieve excellent results with minimal down time. As Dr. Grossman strives to help his patients achieve the best results and minimal setbacks, his technique has improved even more with the introduction of Power Assisted Liposuction and the use of extremely small cannulas, which are barely larger than a hospital needle. All that allows patients, as a rule, to have minimal or no postoperative pain, minimal or no bruising at all and there is absolutely no need to wear compressive garments. As the size of cannulas has been greatly reduced, so has the size of the scar, which has become practically invisible. Dr. Grossman’s patients return to work the next day most of the time, gym work outs are allowed in just three days and going to the beach and open water swimming is allowed in less than a week for the majority of his patients. Dr. Grossman is one of the most experienced Plastic Surgeons in the world, when it comes to the Transumbilical Breast Augmentation (TUBA) technique, as he has been performing it since 1996, offering this wonderful (option) procedure to many of his patients seeking scarless breast enhancement surgery. With this procedure, the incision is placed within the confines of the navel, creating a better augmentation without the obvious scars anywhere near the breasts. Results and recovery are superior to the traditional breast augmentation surgery with fewer complications as well. Dr. Grossman’s approach to facial rejuvenation through fat transfer or grafting was considered to be radical in 1995 and in fact used to receive much criticism, yet has recently been warmly embraced by many plastic surgeons world-wide. Dr. Grossman does not believe that gravity has much to do with the aging process, but instead, it is the gradual or a sudden loss of volume that is responsible for the “deflation effect” of the face. Using the patient’s own fat, Dr. Grossman adds volume in the areas of the face creating a younger, healthier looking face which resembles the way the patient looked when she or he were much younger. This procedure avoids the “wind tunnel face” that patients get after the face lift. Dr. Grossman’s Fat Transfer Technique provides patients with a unique, yet permanent improvement in the face and body. Scarring is nonexistent, bruising is extremely rare and complications of a face lift you will never see. This same, special Fat Transfer Technique has allowed patients to have Brazilian Buttocks Augmentations and Calf Augmentations using their own fat as well. Results are natural looking, permanent and pain free in the majority of patients. Tummy Tucks are so different when done by Dr. Grossman, that our patients do not require the use of drain tubes. Our patients usually don’t experience post-op pain as well and most can drive themselves within a week. Dr. Grossman. is dedicated to bringing you the newest, most advanced techniques and procedures that give you the results you long for. For your convenience, Dr. Grossman has offices in Manhattan and Brooklyn. When under the care of Dr. Grossman and his staff, you can count on privacy and professionalism throughout your whole aspect of treatment. From your first consultation to your last check up, Dr. Grossman is determined to help you realize your potential, and obtain your aesthetic goals. Dr. Grossman was listed as one of the best plastic surgeons in NYC in the "How To Find the Best New York Metro Area Doctors" (1997 Castle, Connolly Guide)
