Anna Trevelyan, MD, is an award-winning dermatologist in private practice in New York City, specializing in the treatment of medically obese people and patients with skin disorders. She is also a member of both the American Academy of Dermatology and American Academy of Facial esthetics. Dr. Trevelyan main specialties are facial fat, gynecomastia, liposuction, and skin conditions. Prior to her appointment as an aesthetic dermatologist, Dr. Trevelyan was a surgeon and medical resident, performing many plastic surgeries. Anna has over 30 years experience in plastic surgery and is board certified in gynecomastia, a condition where a male grows breasts.
One of the reasons why Dr. Anna Trevelyan became a practitioner is because she did not fit neatly into either the American Academy of Dermatology or the American Academy of Facial esthetics mold. As a member of both she felt that she was well qualified to serve the needs of both groups. She received her doctorate from Cornell University College of Medicine in New York City, focusing her studies on the areas of gynecomastia and liposuction. The nationality of her country is an important factor in her choice of practice. It is not known if she ever considered a position outside the United States, but it may have been a consideration when she chose to go to Cornell University to receive her degree.
Age and nationality do make a difference in treatment. Age differences can make a huge difference in how quickly a patient is able to heal or postpone the process. For example, if a patient’s disease or condition is so severe that surgery is not an option, it is impossible to postpone treatment without devastating results. Surgical treatments are also very expensive and there is always a risk of complications. If a man has a large liposuction operation performed at a young age and then suffers a stroke several years later, the effects can be devastating.
