I had my first IPL treatment with Cosmetic Nurse, Veronica (Ronnie) Lee and I wanted to share my experience. At my consultation appointment, Ronnie was professional, welcoming, and very friendly. I felt very comfortable talking with her, and she was sincerely interested in how she could help me. After discussing my issues, she examined my face, shared her realistic evaluation, and made appropriate recommendations. Ronnie fully described the IPL treatment, safety measures, and what to expect during/after the IPL treatment. I was greatly impressed with her knowledge and expertise, and felt excited by what I heard. I left the consultation feeling happy and confident, knowing I would be scheduling an IPL treatment. On the day of my IPL treatment, I was calm and filled with anticipation. I felt great about doing something positive for myself. Ronnie reviewed the IPL process & safety measures again. Once she began the IPL treatment, she took her time and did not rush. At every step of the treatment, she clearly explained what she was doing and why. She was amazing and very thorough, always striving to provide the best treatment possible for the best results. She even identified additional areas that I had missed, and with my permission she also treated them. Before the treatment was finished, she gave me a mirror to view the progress. True to her word, I could clearly see visible improvements in the clarity of my skin. The results so far, exceeded my original expectations and I knew it would improve even more. My only regret was not contacting Ronnie sooner, and I look forward to seeing her again. I highly recommend Ronnie for any Cosmetic procedures you might be interested in. If you are not sure about what you need, consider scheduling a consultation with her to find out how she can help you. You will not be disappointed.

My first experience with IPL was recently with Ronnie Lee and i am so happy to report my positive results. With just 2 treatments I am receiving compliments re how clear and glowing my face looks. Ronnie was also able to remove all sun damage spots from the back of my hands! Ronnie Lee truly represents the very best that this specialty has to offer in experience, safety, professionalism and compassion. Her assessments are realistic and well thought out and she takes much time to explain and answer questions. I look forward to continuing to work with this highly skilled nurse and remain so grateful for the amazing results she has accomplished for me in just a few months.

I saw an advertisement at the Southern Shores Eye Center for wrinkle treatment. I was reluctant to try it but I figured what do I have to lose. I made an appointment with Ronnie and Dr. Lee for Juvéderm treatment. It was amazing to see, after a very short period of time after treatment, actual positive results! I went to a small family reunion and everyone was shocked to see that I looked about 10 to 15 years younger than when they last saw me! I absolutely love the results! Just to mention I am not related to Ronnie or Dr. Lee. I am a verified patient of Southern Shores Eye Center who became a believer of this treatment.

I highly recommend Dr.Lee and Veronica for your vision care, “slow the aging process “ and skin care needs. They are both very professional, personable and take the time to listen to you. Dr.Lee has been given me Botox injections for several years now and I am always happy with the results. I have tried several of the IPL and Tempsure cosmetic services and I am very pleased with my amazing results. I get many compliments on how great my skin looks. Veronica introduced me to the Skin Better Science skin care line. I have been using the skin care products for over 10 months and am extremely happy with the products. My skin has never looked so good! The optical shop has a great selection of glasses available and both “Cindy” s are very helpful in assisting you to pick out the best glasses. The office is very clean and the staff is very friendly.

I wouldn't go to anyone else but Cindy B. for glasses. I see great out of my glasses and I love the way they look. Cindy is very helpful at choosing the best style for me.

My experience with Southern Shores was wonderful. Dr. Nguyen performed my cataract surgeries, which has allowed me to see without glasses for the first time in 39 years. He is the ultimate professional and ensures his patients are comfortable and completely happy with results. I was also very pleased to find that the Optical Services area has a new line of frames called WOOW. The frames are wonderfully colorful, fun and a welcome change from the usual selection. My thanks to Southern Shores for their overall excellent services.

I see Dr.Lee and Veronica Lee for botox and IPL treatments at their office in Manahawkin and it is always an amazing experience! They both provide a high level of professionalism and their warmth and kindness make us feel very welcome in their office. Dr. Lee is very gentle with the Botox injections so there is minimal discomfort and there is never a visible mark showing on the face after treatments. Veronica has a great array of treatments such as IPL to remove hyperpigmentation, anti-aging laser treatments and an exclusive skin care product line to support the skin afterwards and use in a daily basis in order to maintain a healthy, youthful skin. I highly recommend Dr. Lee and Veronica both of whom go way and above to provide the best service to their clients!

For the past 20 years, I have visited this practice for completed eye exams, optical needs and most recently cosmetic enhancement. This practice truly beyond professional. Dr. Robert Lee and Veronica (Ronnie) Lee RN. are extremely knowledgeable. They speak and listen with patience. Dr. Lee and Ronnie Lee RN. are also extremely honest and compassionate. There have been times that I have had to totally lean on their professionalism to help me make the best educated decision. I know that they always have my best interest at heart. They will give you what you need, not always what you want (unless you are that determined), because they have integrity and are meticulous. The practice is state of the art and sanitary. You are thoroughly cared for in every way and in case you leave the office with that I "should have" feeling, they are only a telephone call away. This office is extremely busy; however, the front staff will do their best to accommodate your needs. I have had different skin care, pigmentation and aesthetic needs taken care of by both Ronnie and Robert Lee. They are truly concerned with your feelings and needs. They treat me the way I treat my clients: My clients trust me, and many times have me act in their best interest. Does it get better than that? Our words are all you own, and having the trust factor here with a excellent team, you can never go wrong.

If you suffer from acne and/or rosacea, I encourage you to read this review. I have been battling rosacea, acne, and cysts for the past several months. My dermatologist had given me cortisone shots as well as an antibiotic and topical cream. I thought this would be the answer to my problems, but I was wrong. After being on these medications for months only to have my skin get worse, I knew it was time to take another course of action. I decided to contact Nurse Ronnie at Southern Shores Eye Center's Cosmetics Division. I have several friends who see Ronnie for all different types of procedures and they all say wonderful things about her and have such gorgeous skin. I thought if they can have skin like that, then why can't I so I called Ronnie and she got me in the very next day! After an evaluation of my skin, Ronnie decided the best treatment for my issues would be the intense pulsated light (IPL). The light from this helped break up the redness in my rosacea and evened my skin tone. The heat from it calmed down my acne. The procedure was quick and painless and I was able to go on with my regular routine afterwards. When I looked in the mirror, I saw immediate results. The rosacea that had taken over my cheeks and chin was gone and my complexion was smoother! My pimples went down in size and the cyst had flattened. Even my husband who does not notice anything had taken notice! Ronnie was kind, caring, and compassionate throughout the entire process. She called me that night and the following morning to see how I was doing. This is a level of care that is so rare these days and it is so nice to see someone who goes above and beyond for her patients. I cannot express my level of gratitude for Ronnie. She really knows what she is doing and has gotten me to be comfortable in my own skin once again. If you are struggling like I was with skin issues, give Ronnie a call. I am so glad I did!

So happy with my natural results! Dr Lee injected Juvederm to give me fuller, natural looking lips. I am so pleased with the results! Very minor bruise, nothing makeup couldn’t fix, and tender, swollen lips for 2/3 days. Results were totally worth it! Decided to have my lower, sunken eyes injected with Volbella. I am once again thrilled and so happy with the results! My eye bags are gone. This has been a wonderful experience and looks so good already! I recommend Dr Lee to anyone!

I have had a great experience with Ronnie. I'm in the medical profession myself, and have been to many practices, and Ronnie is top notch. I have undergone 2 IPL treatments already with her, and she has always been professional, attentive, and consistent. She takes the time to explain everything, and listens to my concerns. I have had a great experience, have had excellent results, and would definitely return!

I was very pleased with my cosmetic results. Dr Lee has been doing my Botox for 10+years. I started treatments with Ronnie and Dr Lee after my husband‘s death. It was the first time I treated myself since all my efforts were focused on caring for my husband in his final months and days. It took a toll on me and started to really show on my face. I am so happy and satisfied with the treatments. I feel like I have my self confidence back. I hope to continue with my treatments when the office resumes after Covid 19!

Dr Lee has been treating my lines and wrinkles on my face for many years! I am thrilled with his attention and care. He is highly skilled in treating those hard to treat areas especially around the eyes. There are still too many people walking around not properly treated with Botox! Go to Dr Lee! You won’t be sorry!

I have been using Southern Shores Eye Center for a few years, and always had a positive experience with the doctors and staff. On my last visit I inquired about some of the cosmetic procedures available. I was offered a complimentary consultation with Ronnie, the nurse who administers some of the services. I was impressed by her patience, professionalism, and most of all her knowledge. I am extremely satisfied with my results, and recommend anyone who is thinking about a cosmetic service, to schedule a consultation with her.

Came in for my second laser treatment with Veronica Lee. What a great experience and wonderful outcomes. Veronica is a talented practitioner who takes her time with you, never makes you feel rushed, and puts you completely at ease. I have had these awful little hemangiomas (red dots) that started appearing in my late 40’s and seem to multiply daily. They are almost gone. My last treatment I had bruises under my chin from an collision with a surfboard (at least I stood up ; ) and she used the laser on the area knowing I was embarrassed by it. Two days later and it’s almost gone. She truly is amazing! I highly recommend these treatments for so many different issues. It’s really quite amazing...just like Veronica!
