Los Angeles Eyelid Surgery Doctors and Reviews

“Dr. Hughes Fixed My Lower Eyelid -...”

I had previous eyelid surgery, and the lower eyelid on the outside was extremely droopy. I had dry eyes as well. Dr. Hughes explained that I had some looseness of the lower eyelid that was causing this problem. Dr. Hughes scheduled my surgery in a few days. I am a week out and no bruising and the eyelid is up now and looks much better. Thank you so much, Dr. Hughes. more

“Upper and Lower Eyelids and Facial...”

As an older woman I really needed to do my upper and lower lids. When I met with Dr. Hughes, he also recommended fat grafting at the same time to my cheeks, tear troughs, nasolabial folds, and marionette lines. The surgery was simple and took about an hour. He took the fat from my abdomen - free liposuction. I was swollen for about one week, but the results were obvious right away. Dr. Hughes... more

“Trust in Dr. Massry, Even Across the...”

With thousands of miles between us, Dr. Massry gave me the comfort and guidance I desperately needed after I experienced the devastating effects of lid retraction and hollowness resulting from a lower blepharoplasty. I was often told my eyes were exotically beautiful, and as a performer/model for most of my life, it was my hope (in a world that puts so much emphasis on beauty) to do what I... more

“Blepharoplasty+Fat Graft = Disaster...”

Surgery to remove embedded eyelash strip at end of right lid junction + refinements to eyes, resulted in more problems with eyes & eyelids, e.g. lids that don't descend fully, an enlarged pupil. W/o my consent, added fat graft strips to under-eye areas, resulting in puffy fat asymmetrical fat lumps.Dr. Robert E. Levine is a caring doctor who is generous with his time, but my surgery with... more

“Not a Skilled Plastic Surgeon - Los...”

I had an upper blepharoplasty with Dr. Goldberg in 2004, and am preparing to have a revision for scars, excess skin in some areas, and extensive hollowing in others. I have managed to put off additional surgery by having fillers put in the crease of my upper eyelids to disguise the hollowing that resulted after Dr. Goldberg took out too much fat. The fillers have helped but are not permanent,... more

“I Could Not Be Happier!”

I am a middle aged male professional that was tired of looking tired. My lower eyelids had that growing "pouch" that many of us get as we age. I was very nervous about having a surgical procedure and had met with several surgeons before I decided on Dr Parsa. My main concern was that I find a doctor that could smooth my lower eyelids while keeping my natural appearance. It would have been... more

“Dr. Parsa Works Miracles - Beverly...”

I had unsuccessful corrective eyelid ptosis surgery several years ago, which not only did not correct the ptosis but left my eyelid feeling stiff. In all of my photographs it looked like I was winking, but in fact I was trying my hardest to open my eye as wide as possible. more

“Lower Eye Lift? - Beverly hills, ca”

I am 39 and sick of the eye bags under both my eyes. They seem to have gotten darker and deeper in the past three years with the bags on the right hand side have a more pronounced appearance. I had a good consultation with a surgeon but I am still feeling really scared about doing this. I have two young kids and a husband who is basically not supportive of my getting surgery for both financial... more

“Thankful for a Miraculous...”

I can't thank Dr. Massry enough for correcting what I thought was permanent eye deformity. I'd had too much eyelid surgery which resulted in retracted lower lids below the pupils showing the whites of my eyes in an unattractive manner. more

“Finally Found a Fantastic...”

5 Years ago, I had the misfortune of selecting a doctor that lacked the special skills required to perform eyelid surgery. He had all the credentials, but none of the artistic skills necessary to create a natural looking eye. So...I went through five years of no dating, no looking anyone in the eye and just plain heartbreak. so FINALLY, I got the courage to go to another doctor in Beverly... more

“Outstanding Dr. for a Lower Bleph...”

Pros- NO visible scars. Canthopexy prevents ectropion. Excess skin removal get rid of wrinkles & smooth out the hollow appearance. Fat reposition filled out the deep tear troughs. Absolutely No pain during or after procedures Cons- Temporary redness, swelling on face & eyes Outcome- More than thrilled! Now that I'm 17 days post-op, most of the swelling & bruising went... more

“One Doctor Who Has Ended my Long...”

He succeeded in every way making the lids around my prosthetic eye match my natural one! The results of my upper and lower lid lifts, and fat grafting into my lower lid and cheek (done by Massry) are healed up beautifully now, 2 weeks after surgery. With 4 surgeries under my belt in the last couple of years (done in by various surgeons, all with a minimal margin of visible success), I am... more

“Amazing Results - Los Angeles, CA”

I've always had droopier eyelids and casually heard about Dr. Taban through another physician I know. I had toyed around with the idea of having it corrected but wasn't very sure about it because for me its not an aging issue. I saw the yelp reviews and decided to go in for a consultation with Dr. Taban. His office was great from the first phone call! Natalia who manages his office is... more

“Incision and Stitches Make a HUGE...”

I had upper eyelid skin that made me look tired. When I was younger, I knew one day this day would come and I'd have to make the decision. I'm glad I took 10 years to do my research and observe others' work to find the right doctor. I was afraid of the hollowed look, too much fat taken out, and I was afraid of my eye shape changing to that rounded look, and I was afraid the stitches would be... more

“My Lower Transconjuctival...”

The bags under my eyes are genetic and have bothered me since I was a kid. I researched endlessly on ways to treat the bags non-surgically. Sometimes the teabags, hemorrhoid cream, ice etc. would help, but mostly they made no difference at all. The bags were just part of the ‘design’ of my face…but I felt so haggard that I was actually embarrassed to meet new people. I’m only 30, mind... more

“Mini Tummy Tuck, Liposuction,...”

Had a bit of fat that wouldn't go away with exercise. Had small bags under my eyes and when doing the lower we did the upper and they look amazing. Impossible to tell I've had any surgery. more

“Above and Beyond the Standard of...”

I couldn't suffer with the depression of my appearance any longer, not to mention I was unable to protect my eyeball... Two years ago I had a doctor accidentally sever my 5 and 7 facial nerve during a jaw surgery... He told me it would come back but it never did. So for 2 years I had to battle with the depression of living with the right side of my face completely paralyzed. I was... more

“A great surgeon and amazing results!...”

I recently had blepharoplasty and fat grafting for my hollow sunken eyes. I also had these horrid dark circles for years, and I’ve been told by many people, that I'd simply had to live with them. Fortunately, I wasn't about to believe that, and I got a referral for Dr. Massry, from Adam J. Scheiner, M.D. Dr. Massry has the expertise and experience that made me feel at ease... more

“Lower Transconjunctival...”

I had this done as an afterthought to my rhinoplasty. I've had bags under my eyes since I was a young child. As early as age 11 I started getting the comment that would follow me until I had this surgery "You look so tired, are you sleeping well?". Even a month before the surgery, I was explaining to a friend that I added-on the eye procedure to which he replied "can't... more

“Upper and Lower Lift + a Tighten-up...”

In addition to the upper and lower lift, the doctor performed a mini cheek lift while she was doing the uppers. I would do it again in a heartbeat. I was tired of my mother telling me how tired I looked but, more than that, I was tired of looking older than I felt. The entire process went very smoothly and they worked with me to accommodate my schedule for an event I didn't want to... more

“Finally, Look Like Myself - Beverly...”

I had a very prestigious Beverly Hills Dr. transfer fat from my stomach to the area under my eyes. In time, the fat grew and distorted my entire face. My sister yelled at me and told me I looked like a monster. I resorted to every kind of filler to even out my face and to just look normal. Well, nothing worked. I then consulted with 5 different surgeons and knew I found the right man when... more

“Fabulous Eyelid Surgery from Caring...”

My eyeliner was smearing onto my eyelid. Didn't like it at all. Wanted to open up my eye.I went to a social event 5 days later with slight bruising on my cheek which I was able to cover with makeup on. Arnica is good to reduce bruising. more

“Mystery Shopper - Beverly Hills, CA”

Though I had a medical problem, plastic surgery was required to repair the damage. I am terrified of general anesthesia. Dr. G. performed complex eyelid surgery with only LOCAL injections. He had great concern for MY comfort, which made the experience much less difficult. I am terrified of general anesthesia. Dr. G. performed complex eyelid surgery with only LOCAL injections. more

“The Eyes Are the Window to the Soul...”

Out of the blue one morning I realized my eyelids were screaming at me Help! I took action and saw Dr. G for Help. My world has changed. I adore the results and wondered why I had not done it sooner. There was virtually no downtime. more

“The First Cosmetic Surgeon I Have...”

I had lower eyelid bags. I saw a number of well regarded plastic surgeons. They all gave me the creeps. They really seemed more interested in doing my boobs than my eyelids. I saw Dr. S. He actually examined me and talked to me about what I wanted. He was not like a slick salesman. He was really the first sugreon I have meet who was caring. I had arcus marginalis release surgery and lower... more

“Cheaper Than a Psychiatrist -...”

I would only go with an ophthalmologist for any cosmetic surgery involving the eyes. I feel so much more confident and better about myself. I have concluded that he is cheaper than a psychiatrist. An additional bonus: there was VERY LITTLE downtime! more

“Professional, Perfect, Priceless and...”

Needed it for my career on TV. more

“Fixing my Drooping Eyelid Took Years...”

My whole life one of my eyelids was drooping. As I got older it was even less attractive. The doctor showed me before and after pictures of other patients with very similar eyelids and I was convinced. After the surgery the pain was minimal but I was very swollen and did not been comfortable going out for about a week. When the swelling subsided I really could not have been happier with... more

“Truly Gifted Surgeon and Wonderfull...”

I had the ptosis surgery to look more refreshed and less "sad and tired" more

“Eyelid Surgery - Newport Beach, CA”

For the longest time, I debated to have my eyelids done. Since I turned 60, my upper eyelids were dropping over my eyes and my lower eyelids were getting puffier by the day. Like many others though, I was afraid of surgery. But when I heard so many good things from my friends about Dr. S, and after I did my own research, I gathered the courage to at least consider it. This was a big... more

“Left with "Floppy" Eyelids! Doctors...”

First, right after my eyelide surgery, I noticed that the stitches were unever & that there were gaps where the skin seamed to 'gap' open. I just figured that the PS new what he was doing. Then I noticed that the incision 'crease' lines were not even! Now that it is 9 days post surgery, stiches out -- my eyes look horrible. I seem to have hanging eye lids above my incision... more

“Severe Chemosis After Upper Bleph”

I would not have gone through w/ the surgery if I had known about chemosis. I did the operation to even the eyelids. The doctor I chose was knowledable about Asian Eyelids.I had the Upper Bleph done almost two weeks ago with dissolvable suture. I removed the stitches that did not dissolve on day 4 (per PS instructions). The reason I removed my own stitches is because my PS is about 6 hours... more

“Upper Eyelid Hollowness 6 Years...”

I originally planned to only have lower eyelid surgery because I was always bothered by bagginess that made me look tired. There was some droopiness to the upper lids so the doctor suggested fixing that at the same time. I have fairly closely spaced eyes, and he told me that my age would show in my eyes more than anywhere else on my face, so having my eyes done could help me look younger... more

“Shouldn't Have Had Surgery when...”

I was tired of getting botox every 6 months so I decided to finally seek out a good eye surgeon. I had an upper bleph, ptosis repair and a browlift. The ptosis repair was to lift the eyelid so more of my iris would show and I wouldn't look so sleepy. The upper bleph was supposed to get rid of the hooding, and the browlift was supposed to keep the bleph from pulling down the eyeli more

“Lower Eyelid Surgery Left Me with a...”

I had my lower eyes done....the fat was suppossedly not taken out ...but moved so that i would not have that hollow lookwell,i have that hollow look.....and i feel the doctor should pay a doctor of my choice to correct itthere is much more to this doctor than meets the eye and one should never judge a book by it's covera tip...always ask for your medical recordsit was worth it if it were true.... more

“Eyes After 3 Weeks”

My treatment so far looks okay. I need to be patient. The operation itself wasn't painful, and neither is the recovery. The Dr. did have me take an over the counter herb that really stoped the brusing.I had lower eyelid surgery done 3 weeks ago. My left eye waters (like I am crying) all of the time, and it looks like the disovling stiches are still there. The Dr. says they will disolve, but... more

“Bad Results from Eyebag Removal -...”

I had my undereye bags removed, even thought i made it clear i wanted to leave some fat in, now 3 yrs later i have loose skin. is there anything i can have done without going under the knife? I ahev heard about Alumin, is that worth having done? thanks. more

“Bleph for 45-year-old Teacher -...”

High school teacher, female, 45. Upper and lower eye lid. Excellent work! Some bruising but decreasing. Nice scar line under the eyes but I can see it's also fading. I am off work til September so will rest. Benadryl is really helpful for the itching! I don't think Vicodin helped that much. It makes me sick anyway. I am still recovering so I hope the bruising decreases. I do love the... more

“Blepharoplasty - Upper”

My upper Blepharoplasty was covered by insurance because it had reduced my peripheral vision. While it's a fairly simple procedure, my recovery wasn't as quick as doctors will tell you it will be. Allow about two weeks and then, even with ice compresses and arnica cream, the redness may still be noticeable. Overall, I recommend the procedure. I have had many people tell me the difference... more

“Mixed Results - Do Your Homework! -...”

While I would definitely do it again, MANY doctors take out too much fat, and eventually, you will get a "hollowing out" underneath your eyes. It doesn't show the first year or two.. but eventually, it does. This is a VERY common mistake plastic surgeons make when doing this procedure. And I thought I had one of the best... used to be head of Plastic Surgery at St. Josephs hospital in Burbank!... more

“Bags Begone”

I had upper and lower Bleph. ten years ago and felt great about it ever since. I was looking tired all of the time and I was self conscious because of the bags under my eyes and my upper eye lids were droopy. I think that I looked older than my natural years but every since, I have felt like I look much more relaxed and even younger! more
