Philadelphia Oculofacial Plastic Surgeon

John
Lee, MD

Dr. Lee is our medical director and also the leader of the Lux team. His standard of excellence is evident in every aspect of his career. While in medical school it became clear to Dr. Lee that he could not be the best at everything. That is why he chose to specialize in a very specific field of surgery- oculoplastics. Everyone can agree that their eyes have a very important function. However, they also play the greatest role in how people perceive their well-being. Most surgeons will agree that eyelid surgery is the most detailed & scrutinized cosmetic procedure and this challenge is what drew Dr. Lee to this field.

Notably, he has performed over ten thousand eyelid & brow procedures, honing his skills to provide patients with results that are always very natural yet noticeable. Dr. Lee also has also mastered facial sculpting with injectables using a combination of Botox and facial fillers, creating one of the most successful and highly rated practices in the US. Under his wing, Dr. John Lee has trained many medical professionals including nurses, dentists, and doctors on how to provide the optimal results using injectables at his facility. So wowed, his patients regularly travel from all over the US, Canada, Europe, and Asia to seek his medical expertise. In Dr. John Lee’s personal life~ he is married to a supportive wife and has 3 wonderful children! He enjoys traveling, scuba diving, especially island life and spending quality time with his family.

  • Lux Jawline Lyft

    I recently had a LUX Jawline lyft with Dr. Lee, and I am beyond thrilled with the results! From my initial consultation, Dr. Lee and his team went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable.

  • Semaglutide

    After three kids, I wanted to feel like myself again, so I decided to try semaglutide with Dr. Lee – and it was the best decision I could have made!

  • Great Listener

    I have been seeing Dr Castelli at Lux for some time. He is a great listener and the final result of any treatments always exceeds my expectations! He is honest and gentle and cares about his patients. I highly recommend him for injections and/or weight loss!

  • Gave me hope!

    Dr Castelli gave me hope! It’s so encouraging to know there are things he can do to take away some of the signs of aging & I felt so comfortable with him. He was professional yet still friendly & personable, as were his assistants. He explained everything clearly & made suggestions that fit my needs. I am so excited to move forward with all of my skin care concerns.
