Fighting a 'tired' appearance

(WPRI) - People want to look their best and sometimes a plastic surgeon can help.

Dr. Pat Sullivan, a Brown University Plastic Surgeon, Division Chief of Cosmetic Surgery at Rhode Island Hospital, and Chair of The Plastic Surgery Channel , joined The Rhode Show with how he can help people to look their best.

"We find that the people who have gone through a lot of stress tend to age more rapidly," said Sullivan.

However, facial issues can also be inherited.

"I think a lot of people are looking for nonsurgical procedures. Our younger patients would like to have things that help without going through surgery. We find that things like frown lines can be helped just with Botox and some very simple nonsurgical means."

If a patient is older, sometimes Botox and surgical fillers aren't enough.

"We can help with areas of their eyelids, face, neck, all of these things that often times involve surgery techniques. They can learn about it by going to our website drsullivan.com or come in and sit down and talk to us. We can go over all of the various options they have. Also theplasticsurgerychannel.com is a great place to get further information about how we can help," said Sullivan.
