Dr. Rubin – A Legacy of Excellence in Aesthetic and Regenerative Medicine

Dr. Rubin is a third-generation physician, continuing a proud legacy of medical excellence. With over 30 years of clinical experience — including more than two decades dedicated to aesthetic medicine — she combines deep medical knowledge with a passion for cutting-edge treatments and compassionate care.

Her mother, Dr. Lucille Munion, a trailblazer in ophthalmology and ophthalmic plastic surgery, instilled in her from an early age two core principles: “The most important patient is the one you are caring for right now,” and “Always stay at the forefront of medical innovation.”

Dr. Rubin lives by these values every day, bringing expertise, empathy, and an unwavering commitment to patient care.
