Eye Lift Left Awful Scarring on my Eye Corners - Livingston, NJ

ORIGINAL POST

$3,500
the corner of my eyes where she removed skin looks like a jagged frankenstein scar on both sides. when I saw it afterwards and was alarmed, she had no response. she tried to get me to spend more $$ on scar reduction therapy! it was a sloppy job and to this day I have scars that are an inch long like wings on my outer eyes. I never had wrinkles there but immediately after it aged me ten years. No I do not recommend her! if you're 75 and need an eyelift yes because odds are you dont care but I was young and she scarred me for life!

WOW! So sorry to hear this! How soon after surgery did you realize that Dr. Neigel had messed up? Did she ever take any ounce of ownership for what she did?! So are you now seeking revision? If so, when do you plan to get it done? Sorry, again... Be blessed! :-)

Thank you for sharing your story. I was thinking about contacting Dr Neigel for an upper and lower eyelift but now I will seek a board certified surgeon. thank you again.

Any 75 year-old getting an eye lift DOES care!! That's WHY they are motivated to have the surgery in the first place. Wanting to look your best is not limited to young people.
