I had a very troubling experience with Dr. Alexandra Braunstein. During my eye surgery, errors were made that caused a painful corneal abrasion. Sutures were left in my eye even after her assistant had supposedly removed them. I was in significant pain and had to seek care from another oculoplastic surgeon for three months to manage the complications. When I voiced concerns, Dr. Braunstein was dismissive and unresponsive. As a result of the surgery, I now have to wear reading glasses full time. I do not recommend her — in my opinion, her care was negligent and unsafe.
She put me at ease from the second I sat her exam chair. My results are natural and exactly what I was looking for. I really felt that she toook the time to listen to my concerns and expectations and delivered on them. I can’t say enough good things about the experience.
Botox has been used to successfully treat blepharospasm, hemifacial spasm, Meige syndrome, etc. it is important to be evaluated by a physician to determine the underlying cause of the involuntary movements. Botox may also be used to treat some cases of ptosis “small eye” and this would need to be evaluated by an experienced injector to see if you are a candidate. Good luck!
