I'm 99% certain this is the guy: Dr. Meronk They changed their website and I haven't looked at it in some time, but I'm pretty sure this is it. Take a look... they really address this issue of hollowness. Seems like they really know what they're doing. I'll double check and write back if for some reason this isn't him. But I'm fairly certain this is the dude.... :-)

Well, I would just say don't go to ANYONE who isn't referred by someone, and/or the very least you've seen their work. That's what I hear all the time... do not go to a surgeon unless they're referred by someone who you know is happy with the work they've done. I had uppers done too, but had it done very conservatively, so no hollowness for me. Just the hollows underneath because of the fat. Personally, I think it's weird too that doctor doesn't have before/after photos. My first consult (a few years before I actually did it) was by a very well known surgeon (on TV and off) who's work was amazing. Even HE had before and after photos... maybe I'm wrong, but it seems odd. Wish I knew NYC doc's better and could help you... try a new thread/post if no one jumps on here and knows the doc's around there. Good Luck!

absolutely! and yes, i've thought about the face lift... i'm not quite there yet, but i will have no prob's doing it when i am. right now, between a bit of botox and the filler (and i want to do more filler, in my "marionette" lines, plus a little more under my eyes) - between those two, i think i'm good to go for a few years. lol. who is Dr. Amron? is he the guy in Santa Monica who did Extreme Makeover? older guy? i think he did a bunch of my friends' work (and she did a bunch....) and he IS very, very good. anyway, i hope you can either get out here soon to Lillith or find someone you trust with the Restalyne soon... i know that feeling when your eyes aren't right after surgery and it's an awful feeling. i have to believe there is a fix for you..... i hope you can do it soon! oh! did i mention there's a guy in Oxnard who specifically does this? works on eyes that have been "over corrected?" i looked at this site and considered that for awhile. if you don't know about him (and have any interest) let me know and i'll google it til i find it again... i think someone else on here mentioned him too. it seems like a really good option, as well... warmly, mary

ugh. that IS awful. honestly i was pretty nervous about it too when I had her do it. i'd heard the stories.... thank goodness with her, i didn't have to worry a bit. in fact, i need (need, well - want!) a little more done, and plan to do that soon. she really is amazing and you won't be disappointed. plus, she always tell ya to come back in a week or 2, and let her now how it all "works." if she needs to make tweaks and adjustments she does it. she really cares about her work. she's done that with me for the botox and the restalyne. in fact, she's so lovely i was in there once for some of this stuff and i needed a couple red spots zapped, and she just did it. didn't charge... she's just a lovely woman on top of being stellar at what she does. ok - looks like the coffee is talking now! good luck.... :)

oops- "could NOT have done a finer job!"
