How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Recent photos
I figured it was time to send some recent pics. Healing is continuing and I'm feeling really comfortable with my new look. Hubby just loves my eyes, which is great, considering how freaked out we both were early in the process. Seems like a distant memory now.
However, I am having some extreme redness and my eyes are very watery. I'm going to call Dr. H tomorrow to see what he recommends. I have a feeling he's going to tell me to use lubricating eye drops, which I have not done. My work requires that I stare at a monitor several hours a day. That's probably not great either.
Otherwise, I'm so thrilled I bit the bullet and did this for myself. I don't have any regrets. Not one.
Till next time!

Saw Dr. Harley yesterday
It was so great to see Dr. Harley yesterday! I felt so comfortable and happy and am so grateful to have found him. I don't see how any surgeon could top him, I mean it.
Someone asked Lialki about pain and if it the surgery was worth it -- oh yes it's worth it. And the pain is practically non-existent. (I was worried about that too.)
In a week I'll be two months post-surgery. Dr. H said the healing goes on for quite some time, especially for someone like me, who had upper and lower eyes + the Biltmore Lift done. But, things get better every day and I'm regaining feeling and looking more "natural" around the eyes.
I was in an accident when I was about 15 which severed a nerve above my right eyebrow. So, I've had limited mobility above the right eye, and it's had a botox kind of effect. So, I've aged in an asymmetrical way, and there are more lines on the left side of my forehead, which has total mobility. When I frowned, there was a very deep wrinkle on the left side, but not the right. As I've gotten older, it's gotten a lot more pronounced.
So, I got some botox a few days ago -- mostly in the forehead area that moves freely -- to even things out. Dr. H says that if I do it 3 or 4 times a year it should keep things nice and even.
I'm posting the before and after photos. I seriously feel like keeping the befores under wraps, but I'm going to be brave and share them. I'm pretty tired and worn-out looking. WOW! WHEW! You'll also see that I don't have eyebrows. I've gotten really good at drawing them in. With the new symmetrical forehead it should be even easier.
Good luck to everybody out there still healing or contemplating seeing Dr. Harley. For those who haven't made the leap, you should. You can trust him and the positives FAR outweigh the negatives, which are minimal to begin with.

Still healing
I didn't mention this in any of my earlier posts, but there was a bump on my eyelid where Dr. Harley had placed his running stitch. I was a little concerned about it, but by yesterday it was practically all healed. And likewise for that red spot in front of my ear. I think the numbness is going away is going to take a lot longer. There's still quite a bit of it in front of my ears.
It's pretty amazing how the body mends itself. It just takes some tincture of time.
