Worth It
Spent: $6,000 in San Francisco, California

I read a lot of the reviews before I did this and thought they were very helpful in my decision.

I am 45 and started getting puffy under my eyes a few years ago. It was really bugging me. Tried creams etc....they of course did not work. I have an excellent Dr. who is very conservative and honest and I am so happy with the results.

I took one pain pill, 1 week off of work.(though I went back with some bruising) It has been 6 weeks and it's amazing. My Dr. said it will just keep getting better and better over a few months.

This review is the subjective opinion of a RealSelf member and not of RealSelf, Inc.

It is really not bad. It doesn't even hurt and you will be so happy. You look like someone punched you out for the first 4-5 days. My doctor is Carolyn Chang. She is awesome. She also did a breast reduction on me and it's amazing. It is an all woman office and her assistants are great. Good Luck.www.drcarolynchang.com
