About Helen S. Colen, MD, PC, FACS

I have practiced Plastic Surgery for 30 years. I enjoy all aspects of the field especially the specialty of cosmetic surgery. I perform all forms of surgery of the face, eyes, ears, brow, breasts, abdomen, liposuction, vaginal rejuvenation and labiaplasty, buttock lift, and insertion of facial implants as well. I perform skin care, injectable fillers, botox, and laser treatments. We also perform hair removal and microdermabrasions. Most surgery is done in the office which is AAAASF approved. We have had same anasthesiologist for years and also same staff who is well experienced in taking very good and safe care of our patients. I practice and share office with my husband Dr. Stephen Colen and my daughter Dr. Kari Colen both also on the staff of Lenox Hill Hospital. I have enjoyed my practice for many years because I enjoy taking care of patients.
