Best Physician Assistant: Angela Cusumano and Despina Psyllis
Angela Cusumano, PA-C
Angela treats a wide range of medical and cosmetic dermatology concerns, including acne, eczema, hair loss, expression lines, and changes in skin tone and texture.
She takes the time to understand exactly what is bothering you and helps you work through the options. Whether you are managing a skin condition or considering a cosmetic treatment, feeling informed and comfortable with your plan is always part of a visit with her.
Despina Psyllis, MS, PA-C
Despina won Best Physician Assistant in Best of Long Island 2025, and we are so excited to see her nominated again for 2027. Her treatments include medical dermatology, cosmetic injectables, and laser treatments.
Despina’s approach to facial rejuvenation considers how all of your features work together, with an emphasis on subtle, balanced changes. She brings that same thoughtfulness to medical concerns, taking the whole person into account when planning care.
Angela and Despina share the same voting category. The contest permits one vote per category each day, so you can vote one PA nominee per day.
Best Botox Practice: Look Refreshed and Still Like Yourself
Whenever we have a patient considering Botox for the first time they always ask “Will I still look like myself?” At Simply Dermatology our Botox treatments are always done with the goal of making you look refreshed, and never frozen.
We consider your facial anatomy, muscle activity, and preferences, including how much of a change feels right to you. Our Best Botox Practice nomination is a chance to share that philosophy. For anyone considering Botox in Melville or on Long Island, our focus is on a refreshed appearance that feels comfortable and true to you.

Best Ultherapy: Building on Our 2026 Win
Simply Dermatology was voted Best Ultherapy on Long Island in 2026, and we are grateful to be nominated again for 2027.
Our practice offers Ultherapy Prime for a non-surgical and non-invasive way to address skin laxity. Ultherapy Prime uses focused ultrasound and real-time imaging to target selected tissue layers to stimulate your own body’s collagen production.
Ultherapy may be used on its own or included in our layered approach to facial rejuvenation. The goal remains the same: a natural improvement that respects your features.

Best Laser Treatment Center: Finding the Right Approach for Your Skin
Brown spots, redness, fine lines, and acne scars can all affect the complexion. Choosing the right laser to treat one of these concerns begins with understanding your skin and what you would like to improve.
Our laser options include Fraxel, CO2 laser, VBeam, Q-Switch, IPL, and Clear & Brilliant. Having a range of options helps us tailor care to different concerns, skin types, and recovery needs.
You do not need to know which device to ask for before coming in. During your consultation we will examine your skin and talk through all of your concerns. A plan for pigmentation may be different from one for deeper texture changes, and sometimes treatments are combined thoughtfully.
Our Best Laser Treatment Center nomination recognizes this part of our practice, where careful evaluation guides our approach to laser treatments on Long Island.

Best Facials: Caring for Your Skin With Sam
Sometimes, your skin needs a little extra attention and pampering. Your skin may feel dry, look dull, or have congestion that your usual routine is not quite addressing.
Samantha Criscione, our licensed medical aesthetician, offers HydraFacial, Salt Facial, Dermaplane Facial, and chemical peels at Simply Dermatology. Sam helps you choose an approach based on how your skin is doing and what you would like to improve.
HydraFacial combines cleansing, exfoliation, extractions, and hydration, with different options for customization. Reveal instantly hydrated and glowing skin with our most popular facial. Salt Facial is a non-invasive, 3-step medical-grade facial for deep skin renewal and resurfacing. Dermaplaning removes surface buildup and fine facial hair followed by a nourishing mask. Chemical peels exfoliate and accelerate skin renewal and are perfect for anyone looking to rejuvenate and refresh their complexion.

Best Hair Restoration — Non-Surgical
Noticing hair thinning can be unsettling. Our non-surgical hair restoration treatment uses PRP to restore thinning hair. Our Best Hair Restoration — Non-Surgical nomination gives us an opportunity to highlight this care and remind you that hair and scalp concerns are something you can discuss with our dermatology team.
Best Skin Care and Best Natural Beauty Products: The Simply Collection
Caring for your skin continues at home. The treatments we choose in the office and the products you use each day can work together to support healthier-looking skin.
Dr. Papantoniou founded The Simply Collection with that connection in mind. Her philosophy of balance, along with her passion in restoring oil in skincare, helped shape the line.
From sunscreen to targeted serums, our collection offers options for all the different steps in your routine.
Explore The Simply Collection.
Our Best Medspa Nomination
Simply Dermatology is also nominated in the contest’s Best Medspa category. These services are offered within our physician-led medical and cosmetic dermatology practice.
Having medical care, cosmetic treatments, and professional skin care in one setting allows us to consider your needs together. Whether you are addressing acne, exploring treatment for expression lines, or caring for changes in firmness, we are here to help you find an approach that feels right.
