Press Release

Seattle, WA ( connect2business ) July 3, 2013 - As you age, your eyes age with you. Stress, illness, and fatigue can work to make your eyes look older than they are, negatively impact your appearance and lowering confidence. The founder of Pacific Dermatology & Cosmetic Center, board-certified dermatologist Dr. Jennifer Reichel, explains that there are plenty of methods to fix the area surrounding the eyes to give you a fresher, more youthful appearance.

"Many patients are concerned about bags, dark circles, wrinkles, and hollowness under or around their eyes," Dr. Reichel reports. "We offer eye creams to moisturize and plump the fine skin around the eyelids, but the treatment I prefer for patients with these concerns is upper and lower eyelid rejuvenation surgery, or blepharoplasty. In this procedure, excess skin and fat are surgically removed from around the eye, allowing patients to improve the look of their eyes while leaving their shape and fullness intact."

Dr. Reichel offers other options for her patients as well. "Total FX is another eye rejuvenation treatment that patients are drawn to," she explains. "It can even be performed at the same time as your eyelid surgery. Total FX is a fractional CO2 procedure that improves skin pigmentation, tightens the area of the lower eyelid, and significantly reduces fine lines. It's minimally invasive, and we use the top fractional CO2 technology available in the field."

"When it comes to hollows and dark circles under the eyes, we like to explore the option of fat transfer as well. Fat from your own body is the most natural filler you can use," Dr. Reichel clarifies. "It's pliable, and you don't have to worry about any allergic reactions. We fill in dark circles in just 3 or 4 injections, spaced out 3 months at a time. The results vary among cases, but they can be permanent."

Asked to explain the benefits of these various procedures, Dr. Reichel concluded: "Eye rejuvenation procedures are safe, accurate, and effective in improving the quality of the area surrounding the eye. These treatments allow patients to not only look and feel younger, but also gain confidence in their appearance."
