“Too Much Skin/muscle Removed from...”

I am hoping someone else out there found a skilled oculoplastic surgeon who corrected the same problem I have. The cosmetic surgeon I went to did an upper lid blepharoplasty and destroyed my eye shape, which was a large almond shape by removing TOO MUCH SKIN AND MUSCLE from my upper lids. One eye is so bad I cant close it. My eyes are uneven, with saggy corners and smaller eyelids, Has... more

“Great Outcome and Wonderful Bedside...”

I have suffered from a drooping left eye for years. As it runs in the family, I only have to look at my mom to see what I will look like in the future. I had both eyes done at Central Dupage Hospital where the care was excellent as well. I followed his detailed pre and post proceedure directions and had very little bruzing or pain. I did work at home for a couple of weeks and then was able to... more

“Quad Blepharoplasty Totally Worth It...”

I'm 44 and my upper lids were starting to droop and my lower lids were starting to sag down a little exposing too much of the lower whites of my eyes, making me look sad, old and tired. I wasn't ready to get a full face lift, fixing the eyes is the next best thing. I'm thrilled with the results! I highly recommend this procedure. Regarding my surgery, for those considering quad bleph, Geldner... more

“Best Investment I've Made in Myself...”

I'm a 46yo professional man. I am in decent shape, and I still look pretty young, but I had developed really bad bags under my eyes. In my case it was hereditary. My father had them. I was frequently told by friends and coworkers that "You look tired." I hated hearing that. I wasn't tired. But I looked like it. After reading about the different kinds of surgery options... more

“Upper Blepharoptosis, Lid Cut Too...”

His nurse, pushed this procedure along with a lower facelift (which left a small horseshoe scar in the right temple) so I could wear eyeshadow. I did not ask originally for an upper blepharoptosis. His nurse pushed it. He cut my left eye lid too high, it cannot be revised as the eye may not be able to close leading to blindness.  He said both eyes measured... more

“Worth Every Penny and then Some for...”

I inherited bags under my eyes which made the appearance of dark circles as well. Sometime in my late 40's I also had a drooping forhead which made my eyes look even smaller. I think there is a misconception that a face lift fixes your whole face. Truth is, the face requires many separate types of surgery to be wholly rejuvenated. While I had a face lift, I had a brow lift which helped my... more

“Assymetry of Eyes After Upper Lower...”

2 weeks ago i had a upper and lower eye lift, as well as a brow lift.My left eye was much more swollen and seems to be taking longer to heal. my lower eye surgery was when the DR put green lenses in my eye and scooped and enjected my own fat through the inside of the lower lids after 2 weeks all seems to be going well bur my right eye is more open and i noticed that more

“Upper and Lower Eyelift-looks Really...”

My upper and lower eyelids were very 'baggy' and I felt self-conscious about this. I originally was going to have a face lift and my eyes done at the same time, but only had my eyes done and I'm glad I decided to do it this way.The surgery was really easy-it took about 2.5-3 hours under twilight. I was a little groggy afterwards. I never had any pain from the surgery and only took some Tylenol... more
