I used to know of one on Park Avenue, but this was 12 years ago and unfortunately I can't locate his name and information. Is there a reason you can't obtain a proper referral from your HIV specialist?

He said I show no signs of wasting or any visible effects from HIV or my meds and since he's anti plastic surgery for pure cosmetic reasons.....

What exactly are we talking about here then? As in what is it that you wish to have done?

Well, I was stricken with bells palsy like 17 years ago. I healed like 90% and it's noticeable but not that much and does not bother me much but I'm turning 50 and it seems I could use a little filler on that side of my face. I would rather go to a doctor who has experience with HIV patients and could also possibly advise me if some of my other concerns are age related or symptomatic of HIV patients.
