LOS ANGELES (AP) — Dr. Arnold Klein, dermatologist to the late Michael Jackson and other Hollywood celebrities, has died. He was 70.
Klein, 70, died Thursday at Eisenhower Medical Center in Rancho Mirage near Palm Springs, according to the Riverside County coroner’s office. The brief press release did not state the cause of death and did not indicate any investigation was underway.
Telephone messages seeking comment were left at listings for Klein’s office, a former attorney and the hospital.
Klein’s roster of patients once included Elizabeth Taylor, Dolly Parton, Carrie Fisher and other celebrities. The Beverly Hills dermatologist’s specialty was the use of injectable drugs such as Botox to ease wrinkles and sagging skin.
