I noticed when I was pregnant with my 5th child...

I noticed when I was pregnant with my 5th child that my eyes looked a little puffy in my last trimester. No t realizing that this would have probably subsided if I had waited a few months I went for a consult two weeks after I had my daughter. I only met with Dr. Mirable for like 10 minutes. I feel like I had the consult with his office manager. I wasn't sure about eyelid surgery because I loved my eyes and didn't want them to change in appearance...I just wanted them to look firmer. I had fraxel done 7 years before and the results were amazing. The office manager convinced me that having my upper eyelids done will look just like fraxel did but last a life time. She said I would have no visible scarring and that the Dr. "does beautiful eyes" I also wanted my nose bump taken off and turned up a little. She also was able to get me to agree on lower bleph because I had some bags under my eyes. I was not shown any pictures og nose jobs other than the office managers daughter...so I am thinking well if she trusted her own daughter to him, he must be good. I was so wrong..... My consult with Dr. Mirable consisted of him walking in, shaking my hand, asking the office manager what I was having done and then he threw out some prices. He never discussed the procedures with me or the out comes. I just figured this guy was so good he didn't have to. We set a date...I was surprised that his schedule was so open... I already had a date of early December. I decided to do it over Christmas vacation. I didn't even tell my family about the surgery because I was so sure I was going to be gorgeous that I wanted to surprise them. The office manager pestered me just about everyday for money. Then they kept trying to move my surgery date up. I was told even with all 3 surgeries that I would be back to work in 3 days. Really? Wow...this was the office managers information to me. I was never able to get a hold of the Dr. Directly it was always the office manager who gave me my information about surgery. I was given a packet of information and told to get blood work done. I skimmed over the papers but nothing prepared me for the outcome of my surgery. On the day of the surgery I cried the whole day...I had a very bad feeling but kept telling myself that I was just nervous. I wish I had gone with my gut. I looked like a monster a monster when I came out of surgery. My baby was only 5 weeks old and breast feeding her was so difficult. I didn't know I had to sleep sitting up...they never said anything to me prior to surgery. I was bleeding profusely from my eyes like I was stuck in a horror film. I had developed and infection and my eyes were swollen shut for two days. I almost lost my job because the recovery time ended up being two weeks not 3 days like I was told. The results after I healed were even worse. My eyelids were turned out slightly, my beautiful almond shaped eyes were now round with big goofy eyelids and my nose was a crooked mess. I only wanted the bump straightened out on the side and top. I wanted a cute turned up nose. I couldn't figure out why it looked so crooked. I was also mortified that my eyelids were so big..I wanted them the same as they were before only firmer. I told the Dr. this before he did the operation IN THE OPERATING ROOM. I said I don't want my eyes to look any different. If this operation will change they way they look don't do it. He did it anyway. I also want to note that the whole time I had complications the Dr. refused to speak to me directly. I was only allowed to contact the nurse on duty. In fact I was told he went on vacation right after my surgery and was unavailable. I went back recently now a year and a half later because my face looks even worse. He finally told me that he had thinned out the bottom of my nose...something I did not want him to do and didn't touch the bumps on the side...I still have no idea why. I liked how my nose looked from the front. Now I have a nose like Owen Wilson. It is thin up top and wide in the middle and super thin at the bottom. It looks awful. I also have giant scars under my eyelids. One scar is so low under my eye that it looks like I have white eyeliner on one eye. I thought the scars were going to be hidden inside the lid like most eye surgeons do. He still does the old fashioned procedure of cutting the whole lid and stitching along the lash line. I am furious that he ruined my face. What makes it worse is that he doesn't give a damn since he got paid. He told me he couldn't fix it and I should have read the material he gave me more carefully. I didn't even need the upper eyelid surgery he took off too much skin. He said "of course it is going to change what your eyes look like" I told him again that I told him not to do it in the OR if that was going to happen. He just said "well its done and you cant fix it" . I also addressed why he touched the bottom part of my nose he said because it was wide so he decided to clean it up. I told him I never discussed this with him and he just said I cant give you a perfect nose and you will never be happy. Then he rushed me out of his office. I am so scathing mad right now. He made no attempt to fix ot or apologize for not listening to what I wanted. On top of that he said we had computer imaging. I asked why didn't he show me that when I had the consult? Because if it had looked like it does now I wouldn't have gone through with it. He just waved his hand and shrugged his shoulders and said I don't know. I know...because he never really had a solid consult with me. He left it up to his office manager to do the computer imaging and show me before and after pictures. I have had 4 consults since him with other dr.s and all of them have spent at least an hour explaining everything to me and showing me the imaging themselves. I never spoke to an office manager until AFTER my consult with the new surgeons. One of them said DR. Mirable is A "Boob guy" why would you let aq boob guy touch your eyes or nose. I feel even worse after reading comments on various sites about this dr. He has had more people complain about lack of time spent and caring about their results than any other dr I have read about. He also has a high percentage of people that had to have the work he did re-done. the only people that seem happy are the people who had implants. I am so sick over this. I cry every day. I cant even look in the mirror. My 10 year old daughter is mortified. She said "mom you were so pretty, why did you do that to your face".

still unhappy and scathing mad

I hate the way I look. Dr Mirable took the sexy right out of my eyes. I have bug round eyes with big goofy eyelids. I miss my beautiful sexy almond shaped eyes. I had eyes like Sophia Vegara. I am angry that this Dr had computer imaging yet never allowed me to see what my procedure might look with it. I would not have had it done. I didnt need it. I didnt have any hanging skin like I saw in some of the before pictures. I have scarring in my lids and the outer creases of my eyes. I also have scars under my eyes. It looks like i have white eyeliner on at all times. I said over and over in the office that I the way my eyes look and I don't want them to look different. My consult was only 10 minutes with the dr. The next time i saw him was in the operating room. I said again that I dont want my eyes to look different. He said nothing. He should have let me know they would look completely different but I suspect he didnt want me to change my mind and lose my money. At my recent consult with him he told me " of course your eyes would look different with the this kind of surgery you should have read your paperwork" I told him no paperwork could have prepared me for this and that he had a responsiblity to address my concerns the day of the operation before he ever did anything and not ignore me. I am a paying customer. I paid for a consult. It should have been more thorough. I also learned that he narrowed the tip of my nose last week which I never discussed with him. I paid him to straighten the bridge of my nose so my glasses were not crooked. He didnt do that. I still have a large bump on the side of my nose that he did not shave down as discussed. When I asked him why he made my tip so thin when I never asked him to touch it at all, He just said "it was wide so I thinned it out." I was fuming. It looks awful. It is a thin crooked mess. I told him he had no right to do that when it wasnt part of the treatment plan and he just said I cant give you a perfect nose and I cant fix it. He then told me to leave his office. I now have to shell out 8000 to have my nose rebuilt and cartilage and bone removed from other parts of my body to fix it. I was told it may never be right again. This guy is a pompus smug creep that thinks he can do whatever he wants when you are asleep in his OR. Beware...unless you are really ugly and whatever he does doesnt matter ...dont go to him. There is a reason I am not in his before and after books. I look like a monster. He ruined my face and he doesnt even care.

This Dr. does not listen to what you want, he does not spend enough time to thoroughly discuss what he is going to do and what you want done and outcomes. He doesn't suggest alternatives that are less invasive and could achieve the desired results such as a laser procedure instead of skin removal. This guy is all about the money and doesn't care about the patients happiness. When I told him he didn't explain everything to me he just said I gave you paper work to read. I think it is the responsibility of the Dr. to explain all procedures , outcomes and alternatives of treatment and completely ignorant, neglectful and lazy to just hand out paperwork in lieu of keeping your patient informed face to face.
