Staying a few steps ahead of every doctor in New York is no easy task, especially when you’re wearing four-inch Yves Saint Laurent platforms. But dermatologist Patricia Wexler manages just fine. “We keep up-to-the-minute,” says the doc, who first skyrocketed to fame on the merits of fat, specifically a patient’s own fat harvested from thighs or the abdomen for injection into facial lines and wrinkles, a technique she’s been perfecting for more than 20 years. Clients from, as she likes to say, “Dubuque to Dubai” keep coming back—and flying in—for more.
