Career[edit]

Geronemus is the director of the Laser & Skin Surgery Center of New York.[1] He is also Clinical Professor of Dermatology at the New York University Medical Center.[citation needed]

Geronemus has contributed to the clinical development of laser and technology systems for devices for the treatment of skin problems including the pulsed dye laser[2] and the Picosecond laser.[3]

Geronemus' publications have covered treatments for port wine stains,[2][4][5] hemangiomas,[6][7][8] sun damaged skin, wrinkles, telangiectases, birthmarks,[9] skin laxity,[10][11] hair removal, tattoo removal[3] and Nevus of Ota removal.[12][13] Geronemus has advocated the early intervention of vascular birthmarks, encouraging treatment during early infancy.[14]
