Louis M. DeJoseph, M.D. joined Premier Image Cosmetic & Laser Surgery in September of 2002 bringing with him the credentials, experience, and specialty training in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery. Dr. DeJoseph’s well sought after talents and exceptional medical skills were not over looked by any means as he was soon asked to become a full partner in the practice.
I believe relationships are important. Many people find cosmetic surgery to be the right choice for them. However, there is a process in learning about procedures and the choices are very personal. I strive to provide the information necessary in a comfortable and relaxed environment so that my patients can be candid with questions and expressing their desires.
My goal is to establish a trusting relationship from the start allowing for better communication and better results. I feel that by helping patients feel good about themselves, I am improving their quality of life.
Having grown up in a family of medical doctors, DeJoseph never thought twice about his decision to study medicine. His father, a renowned cardiologist, took his young son on many rounds at the hospital and to his office. DeJoseph grew up not with a silver spoon, but with a stethoscope in hand. He would later fulfill his own dreams of becoming a highly respected and well sought after doctor of facial plastic surgery.
Dr. DeJoseph received his undergraduate degree in Molecular Biology, graduating Cum Laude in his competitive class at King’s College. Subsequently he received his doctorate of medicine from the College of Medicine at Penn State.

He understands that the way people see themselves effects their social and business life, as well as their self esteem. “Giving a person back their youthful appearance with facial rejuvenation or correcting a defect from trauma or hereditary causes is a privilege.” Dr. DeJoseph is passionate about his work and states his biggest thrill is when the patient returns with a smile that had been missing for years. Their new attitude to live life more abundantly charges Dr. DeJoseph to exceed even his own dreams.
