A Hands-on Approach
As a dermatologist, Dr. Buhac takes a personal interest in the specific concerns of each patient. She’s seen thousands of patients during her 20-year career—from infants to individuals in their 80s and 90s—continuously honing her clinical expertise and creating a practice where patients feel welcome and safe. She appreciates that patients have several choices when it comes to selecting a dermatologist and is committed to providing personalized care to them.
Dr. Buhac’s interest in cosmetic dermatology led her to establish the first medical spa in the Capital District area shortly after opening Saratoga Dermatology. The medical spa serves as a bridge from medical science to beauty. Dr. Buhac has personally trained and selected her colleagues in the art of injectables and fillers to deliver outstanding and natural results. She listens closely to the concerns patients have and how they describe their expectations and then crafts a conservative treatment plan that still addresses those concerns. For women and men who come in for cosmetic procedures, Dr. Buhac’s goal is to create results that improve their appearances but look natural.
Her expertise with injectable treatments and fillers is one of the reasons patients continue returning to Saratoga Dermatology to maintain their youthful-looking skin.
