Sorry about the confusion. I've been moving from Scottsdale, AZ -> Pittsburgh, PA -> Nashville, TN!
I'm happy I had the upper eye lids down, the laser underneath the eyes was a waste of time and money. It still costs me a mint to bet botox for the wrinkles underneath my eyes.
Now, 7 months afterward I can say that I would NOT recommend this doctor. *sorry Lori* The reason I say this is that my eyes look 'okay' and yes better than before, but I am scarred on my lids and need ANOTHER surgery to correct the deep intentations from where the incisions were.
I'm not talking about the red lines that disappear (ever so slowly) but real scars that are deep and have to literally be filled in to cover them up. They are not red, but they look as if someone took a chick of my eyelid out. Surgery is the only way to correct her mistakes.
SO - if you live in Pittsburgh, do NOT use the same doctor I used. ANd don't bother with the laser underneath your eyes, you still have to use Botox anyway.
I'll try to upload a photo sometime of just my lid so you can see what I am talking about, but at this time I am in corporate housing and I don't have a decent camera to take a photo that will show the scars. (All my stuff is in storage until we move into our house)
About the conflicting comments about Dr. Cherup -- I was still seeing one of the nurses at her office to get my injectables so I wasn't as honest about my disappointment as I could have been concerning my surgery. But I had nowhere else to go for my injectables at the time.
Now I'm back to a normal area and will seek out help from a better doctor.
I'min the Nashville/Brentwood area if anyone has any suggestions. However wise I'll hold off until I get back to Scottsdale, or go to Miami for corrections.
