Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)
If you are concerned with loose skin above or below the eyes, overhanging eyelids, or puffy bags beneath the eyes, you may be a candidate for eyelid surgery at our practice. It is used to eliminate excess skin that may be impeding vision, and tighten remaining skin for a fresh, more youthful look. If drooping eyelids are giving you a tired, stern appearance, this may be the solution.
It can be performed on both the upper and lower eyelids. The surgery begins with an incision made along the natural crease of the eye. During the procedure, Dr. Rowen gently trims away excess skin, lifting and reattaching the remaining skin to create a smoother, tighter appearance. The surgery is performed on an outpatient basis, and patients can return to normal activities as soon as they feel comfortable.
If you are interested in eyelid surgery, contact our practice to discuss the procedure in depth. During your consultation, we can answer any questions about possible side effects and recovery time. Patients can also explore laser resurfacing as an alternative way to tighten the skin.

Today, patients now have a fast and effective treatment for the lines and wrinkles which commonly develop near the forehead, brows, and eyes. Known as “expression lines,” these wrinkles are the result of years of muscle contraction from common facial expressions like squinting, frowning, and smiling. With a series of injections at one of our practices, we can soften or eliminate these deep wrinkles in just a matter of minutes.
Essentially, it works by reducing the muscle contractions which cause wrinkles. When injected directly into facial muscles, it blocks the nerve signals which cause those muscles to contract. The targeted muscles gradually relax, and lines, furrows, and creases fade or disappear altogether. This Cosmetic procedure is a short acting, but long term wrinkle prevention treatment.
This treatment at our practice is a relatively simple process. The injections are quick, and only slightly uncomfortable. Treatment can be completed in approximately 10 minutes, and there is no recovery time; patients can leave our office immediately. Allergy testing is not required prior to treatment.

The procedure takes less than 30 minutes and there is no downtime, no bruising and no signs of having had a treatment performed. Results are instant, taking years off your face. While it offers many of the same benefits as these other wrinkle treatments; it has been shown to outlast virtually all other fillers on the market. The results of injections can potentially last for years, not months.
It is also composed of a natural substance, which means no pre-testing at our practice is required. Patients can come in for a consultation, have their face numbed with an anesthetic cream, and receive injections almost immediately. There may be some tenderness near the injection sites, swelling and bruising can occur, but patients can generally return to normal activities right away.

Fraxel® Laser Treatment is a revolutionary way to improve the health and appearance of your skin. With it, we can take years off the look of your face, neck, chest, and hands by erasing brown spots, smoothing wrinkles, reducing pore size, and improving the skin's overall texture and tone.
Because this is a laser treatment, it is extremely precise and non-invasive. The Fraxel® laser beam treats only the spot at which it is directed, leaving adjacent skin undisturbed. Although the treatment area is very narrow, the Fraxel® Laser Treatment penetrates deeply enough to promote true healing. This makes it ideal for correcting flaws without subjecting the patient to a major procedure. If a more extensive treatment is indicated, the non-invasive nature of the Fraxel® Laser Treatment assures excellent results with minimal discomfort.
In order to assure minimal disruption of your busy schedule, the Fraxel® Laser Treatment is usually performed in three to five visits at two- to four-week intervals. This technique allows for quick recovery; many patients can return to normal activities the day of treatment. Since each patient's needs are different, Dr. Rowen will schedule a consultation to design just the right treatment plan. Please contact our cosmetic center.

We recommend it as an adjunct treatment for minor skin problems, including fine lines, crow’s feet, acne scars, sun damage, age spots, large pores, and small scars. After a session, skin feels smooth and soft, and patients leave our office with a healthy glow.
It is essentially a “polishing” of the skin. During treatment, a special device removes the layers of dead skin cells, revealing a new layer of healthy skin. Because the treatment is so gentle, it is appropriate for patients of all skin types, and can even be used on sensitive skin.
A session at our practice can last anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes. The treatment is not painful, no anesthetic is required, and patients usually describe only a slight sunburned feeling after each session. It requires follow-up treatments for maximum results. There is no downtime associated with the treatment, and patients can return to work immediately.
