“I see myself as a sculptor and a restoration artist. Whether it is eyelid surgery, using injectables, combining these with skin tightening and lasers, or more recently with fat reduction, the result must always be conceived in a way that is 3-dimensional and detailed. My goal is to make each patient achieve a natural rejuvenation – the more beautiful, younger version of themselves.”
In 1999, after eight years on The Wilmer Eye Institute full time faculty and two years as its Cosmetic Division Director, Dr. Pacheco founded the Center for Eye & Laser Surgery and medical spa while continuing her commitment to Johns Hopkins as a part-time faculty member.
In 2009, Dr. Pacheco proudly announced the opening of the new Center for Eye & Laser Surgery and Adoro Medical Spa in Severna Park, MD. In our beautifully appointed location, patients receive a greater array of first-class services and an individualized approach. Enjoy our elegant, serene environment and let Dr. Pacheco ‘Open Your Eyes to the Possibilities’.
