At the Spiegel Center, we offer a safe and effective treatment called mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy (mHBOT). This non-invasive therapy involves being placed in a specially designed chamber where you will experience an increase in air pressure and elevated oxygen levels. The combination of air pressure and higher oxygen levels will allow your body to absorb more oxygen, which can help to enhance your body's natural healing abilities. By introducing more oxygen into your bloodstream, mHBOT can help stimulate cell growth, reduce inflammation, and promote tissue repair. This therapy has been shown to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions, including chronic pain, sports injuries, and neurological disorders.
While HBOT involves high pressure with 100% oxygen levels, mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy (mHBOT), as the name implies, is a milder form that still has beneficial results. The chamber’s air pressure is raised to only 1.3 to 1.5 atmospheres, and the oxygen levels are increased to 40%. This lower pressure is safer for patients with certain medical conditions or difficulty with pressure changes.
The Spiegel Center has been awarded with the "Best Recovery Experience" for our recovery protocols including mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy. The Spiegel Center is one of the top practices in the world, and each member of our team is here to support patients on their journeys to becoming their true selves. Each surgical team member was hand-selected by Dr. Spiegel for their high level of skill, and they consider it a privilege to help patients become who they want to be.

Two years ago I noticed hooding of my upper eyelids which really started to bother me. I decided then that I wanted an upper blepharoplasty and started saving. I researched doctors in New England and after two consultations made the best decision by choosing Dr. Spiegel. Everyone was kind and put me at ease from start to finish. Uzma was informative, never pushy and so kind. During the procedure I was nervous being awake but Dr. Spiegel and his surgical fellow Dr. Glaskowski spoke to me the entire time telling stories and asking me questions to keep me calm. Throught my recovery I got calls from Dr. Spiegel and Uzma almost every day the first week of recovery including the weekend! The healing process has been quick, especially since I did a session of hyperbaric oxygen therapy which reduced my swelling and bruising. I cannot recommend the Spiegel center enough. If you want the best doctors and staff who aren’t just talented but compassionate and truly care about their patients, look no further; I couldn’t be happier with my results, which are even better than I was expecting, and my overall experience at the Spiegel Center start to finish.

As any painter, sculptor, architect, or photographer will tell you a lot of beauty has to do with the play of light. It’s the same for our faces. Having full cheeks and high eyebrows accentuates light from the eyes. Having a beautiful smile and a short upper lip accentuates light from the mouth. The best contemporary cosmetic techniques involve…
