From initial consultation to post procedure visit, Dr Reichel and her team were amazing. The outcome of my procedures are beyond expectations and I could not be more delighted. I’m telling everyone I know - if you think you want to have a little help feeling your best, go see Dr. Reichel. I feel and look so much better. Thrilled!
After years of getting filler under my eyes it started not working as well to cover my dark circles. Dr Reichel recommended blepharoplasty for this area as well as upper blepharoplasty. I was so impressed with how well I was treated and cared for by herself and her Nurse Marchella before and after surgery and I am very pleased with my results.
TLDR: I am very happy with results, it was totally worth it. Dr. Reichel and her entire office is amazing. I am uploading day by day photos, so that you can see the recovery trajectory for yourself. I should say that my first experience with Dr. Reichel was 4 years ago, as an exceptional Mohs surgeon. She removed a very challenging (due to location and size) BCC on my then 80 year old Dad, with excellent outcome. I have been seeing her since, for routine maintenance like Botox and Fraxel. I have had a permanent fold under my left eye pretty much as long as I can remember, and I thought that maybe it's something that could be smoothed out with either ultherapy or an extra laser treatment. But after taking a closer look this summer, Dr. Reichel said that this is an eye bag and it would take blepharoplasty to smooth it out. I knew that I was in excellent hands with Dr. Reichel as a surgeon, but it still took me 6 months to make up my mind, b/c I am more of a conservative "maintenance" kind of person, and it took me time to research and work up courage to go ahead with the procedure. I ended up doing lower bleph with simultaneous 30 percent TCA peel. There are a number of published peer reviewed papers on this combination of procedures going back literally 30 years, which to me was very reassuring, because it helped me understand that this was a well established procedure with predictable outcomes in the hands of someone as highly qualified as Dr. Reichel. The recovery took 6 days. I did take a week and a half of work, but as of day 6 I could go back to VC and no one would know any better. The procedure itself was completely painless. The recovery was definitely rougher than Fraxel, especially the first 2 days. The most important thing imo is to take all the physical restrictions very seriously. On the 5th day I lifted a couple of heavy boxes and bent a little too low, and that night I ended up having blood tinged tears. I called the office and Marcella reassured me that this was not unusual, and just stick to the post op regimen for a few more days. TLDR: I am very happy with the results, it was totally worth it. Dr. Reichel and her entire office is amazing. I am uploading day by day photos, so that you can see the recovery trajectory for yourself.
Like many people, I was hesitant at the thought of any cosmetic procedures, particularly filler, with concerns that results might be unnatural, or that I might end up with a "puffy" or over-filled look. Dr. Lamel reassured me that natural enhancements are entirely possible, and she absolutely proved it! I still look like myself, but younger, more relaxed and rejuvenated. Dr. Lamel has a great understanding of facial structure, and she worked very well to enhance my unique features. I wanted specifically to address under eye bags and deepening tear troughs, and she explained to me how adding volume to targeted areas of the face can give youthful results and reduce the amount of filler that needs to be added in the delicate under eye area. I have noticed that the crepey skin under my eyes has all but disappeared, and my makeup sits better than it has in years. Most of all, I appreciate the precise and personalized work that Dr. Lamel has done. Thank you so much!
Mary did an amazing job using Restylane filler to treat my lips. Her quality techniques always comes out looking natural and never overdone. She always makes me feel comfortable and checks in with me throughout my treatment and follows up after. See Mary if you are interested in Filler, especially if you want your lips done!
Mary is an amazing Nurse Injector! I suffer from migraines and like to be preventative with Botox to keep my youth. Mary keeps it natural yet helps treat my migraines so I appreciate her very much. Highly recommend!
Sonia is the best!! She is so calming and I felt very confident in her care. I had never done any cosmetic treatments before but my mother and sister had gone to Sonia before for Juviderm, which I also got done for the first time with Sonia. I am so happy with my results, I feel and look amazing but very natural—my boyfriend wasn’t even sure what I had done but noticed I looked “fresh”…!
Dr Lamel is superb at what she does. She is always very friendly and helpful, and i can always count on her to be honest about prices and what she recommends I get done from a professional standpoint.
My main concern was my nasolabial folds, my always tired eyes even when I rest and I just don't feel comfortable with my face at this age. I was so scared of doing any filler because according to internet and friends I would look like a deformed hamster. Dr. Lamel took time to explain everything, all the details, how the procedure will go and answered all my questions (and I had a lot). First of, no pain at all, second after the filler, I look at the mirror and I cried. I am 39 and I legit look exactly how I looked in my 20s. I thought it was a spell (but no its science). But seriously combine an amazing skilled doctor and the right product and you end up feeling amazingly confident and love your face again. Thank you so much for making feel beautiful again.

This was my 4th consultation for an eyelid surgery and suggestion for over all skin improvement. Doctor Rachel is very knowledgeable and explains everything to detail without any kind of pressure, rush or try of upselling you. I was suggested to start with Botox and doctor Rachel made such a great impression on me that I decided to get it right away during my consultation. She believes that less is more for a very beginner like me. I felt comfortable and without a risk with her. I’m happy with the results so far and I’m planning to schedule the surgery.
