Advanced Laser of Long Island
Welcome to Advanced Laser of Long Island, where Dr. Wayne Wertheim provides the perfect blend of artistic vision and modern technology for the patients of Long Island and the greater New York City Metropolitan area.
Dr. Wertheim is the only physician in Long Island, New York to provide his patients with the expertise of a Certified Smart Lipo Training Center. Dr.
Wertheim has the latest Cynosure MPX Smart Lipo and trains physicians in the procedure. His expertise has been highly recognized among fellow physicians. His patients are always thrilled with their results and refer many friends and family.
Dr. Wertheim brings over two decades of primary care medical experience to the forefront of the fight against time and the inevitable, but improvable effects of aging. Although time may continue to march on, Dr. Wertheim's patients have found that they can march to the beat of a different drummer.
Our goal is to give our patients a healthier, fresher look and feel, one that will give them a renewed sense of confidence and restore their sense of self-esteem. At Advanced Laser we believe this can be achieved through a customized, non-invasive, patient-friendly approach to Skin Renewal and Laser Hair Removal.
Dr. Wayne H. Wertheim, M.D. is the Medical Director of Advanced Laser of Long Island.
Dr. Wertheim completed his postgraduate training in internal medicine at Winthrop University Hospital in Mineola, New York. For over 24 years he practiced primary care medicine on Long Island with practices in Roslyn and Garden City. During this time, his hospital associations included North Shore University Hospital, St. Francis Hospital and the Winthrop University Hospital.
Dr. Wertheim has held academic teaching appointments at both the Cornell University Medical College and the School of Medicine at the State University of New York at Stony Brook.
Throughout his years in practice, Dr. Wertheim developed a strong interest in anti-aging medicine, bariatrics and nutritional supplementation. He is an active member of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine and the International Medical Spa Society. He continually expands his knowledge base by attending aesthetic conferences and advanced training seminars both nationally and internationally.
During the last several years he has explored the various alternatives in non-invasive procedures to help slow down or correct the effects of aging, particularly of the skin. He has researched equipment and therapies that are not only state-of-the-art, efficacious, cost-effective and therapeutic but also safe.
Dr. Wertheim decided to leave his primary care practice in March 2005 in order to devote his full time efforts to serve as medical director of Advanced Laser of Long Island.
Dr. Wertheim has developed a reputation for having an outstanding bedside manner and for treating all his patients with care and compassion. Dr. Wertheim stands by his belief that all his patients should be, "treated as if they are family. Recommendations and treatments are offered only with the best interests of the patient in mind. I have derived much positive feedback and joy in this exciting new field of aesthetic medicine. The procedures we perform prove to have beneficial effects not only to our patients' skin but to their overall sense of confidence and psychological well being."
Prudence L. Ferrone- Director of Aesthetic Services
"Prudy," as she is affectionately known around the office, has been in the personal care, beauty, and wellness industry for over 20 years. The roots of her aesthetic interests first sprang up when she began working for Lanc�me cosmetics as a make-up artist. Following that she began working as a wardrobe coordination consultant for Beauty Control.
In her continuing desire to work with people, fashion, and glamour, she entered the world of fragrance as a consultant for Burberry and Boucheron. As Prudy began her family, she tapped her entrepreneurial spirit by launching a successful jewelry design company where she served as both senior designer and CEO.
As her family grew, she began focusing on using her multifaceted skills and experience in the growing medical cosmetic arena. Her first step was to enter the field of personal care and nutritional supplementation with the international giant Nu Skin Enterprises and Pharmanex.
While there, Prudy was a respected trainer and lecturer while achieving the pinnacle of success and earning capacity. During this time she was also responsible for bringing to fruition the concept of nutritional wellness centers to medical practices, creating over 200 in the tri-state area.
Prudy could not have been a better candidate to join and excel in the field of aesthetic medicine. "It seemed like a natural continuation of my diverse background, dealing with people and advising them on all forms of personal care and beauty."
Prudy, like millions of Americans is an aging baby boomer "As I continue to 'mature,' I want to feel good and look my best as long as possible. I have tried all types of procedures short of surgery; I know what works and what doesn't." Her clients love hearing about her personal experiences and tapping into her unparalleled expertise in aesthetic medicine.
