Dr. Alexander Gross: The Aesthetic Architect of North Georgia
Located in Suite 1500 at 1505 Northside Blvd, within the Northside Forsyth hospital complex, the practice of Dr. Alexander Gross (Georgia Dermatology Center, now part of Olansky Dermatology & Aesthetics) is a regional powerhouse for skin health. Dr. Gross is a rare "double-threat" in the medical field: he is double board-certified in both Dermatology and Internal Medicine, a combination that allows him to treat skin conditions with a profound understanding of how they connect to a patient’s internal health.
At Suite 1500, patients find a physician who has quite literally written the book—or at least the laws—on modern dermatological safety in Georgia.
The Gross Clinical Distinction
What makes Dr. Gross a "Top Doctor" institutional fixture in the Cumming and North Atlanta area?
The Legislative Advocate: Dr. Gross isn't just a practitioner; he is a protector of patient safety. He played a pivotal role in writing and passing the Georgia Indoor Tanning Act and the Georgia Cosmetic Laser Services Act. His commitment to safety ensures that every procedure performed in his office meets the highest legal and ethical standards in the state.
The "Tumescent" Pioneer: He is a nationally recognized expert in Tumescent Liposuction, a revolutionary technique that allows for fat removal under local anesthesia, eliminating the risks of general sedation. He even trains other physicians across the country in this specialized surgical art.
Dual-Board Mastery: His background in Internal Medicine (trained at Emory) and Dermatology (trained at Vanderbilt) means he is uniquely qualified to manage complex "medical dermatology" cases—where skin rashes or lesions may be the first warning sign of an underlying systemic issue.
A Hub for Aesthetic Innovation: The Georgia Dermatology Center is a certified national training center for Botox® and a flagship facility for advanced technologies like:
Laser Skin Resurfacing: Precision treatment for sun damage and aging.
CoolLipo™ & VelaShape™: Non-invasive body contouring and cellulite reduction.
Advanced Fillers: Artfully applied soft tissue fillers for natural-looking rejuvenation.
The Experience at 1505 Northside Blvd
The vibe at the Cumming office is professional, high-energy, and technologically forward. Despite the high volume of a top-tier practice, Dr. Gross is frequently praised for his efficiency and diagnostic speed. Patients (who award him high marks for "thoroughness") note that the staff is exceptionally professional, and the facility feels more like a modern wellness hub than a traditional doctor’s office.
