Thank you so much Dr. Lo, I was nervous about my blepharoplasty but you made me feel comfortable and knowledgeable about the procedure. I healed very nicely and now I feel so much more confident wearing contacts and with my general appearance. I would definitely recommend Dr. Lo to any of my friends and family.
Amazing results !! I’ve had eye-bags since I was a kid and now I finally look rested thanks to Dr.Lo. The procedure was quick, staff was nice, and recovery took about 2 weeks. I was able to go back to my normal routine after the first week.
Amazing doctor, amazing staff- all around great experience. I first saw Dr. Lo because I have chronically suffered from dry eye, I had CSR in my eye before and was very scared to have ANYTHING done, I wanted someone who I could trust to do a natural looking surgery and wouldn't aggravate my existing issues. He was extremely knowledgeable, took his time explaining things to me, and was such a great doctor. I felt so well taken care of the entire time, and trusted him every step of the way. His stitching was impeccable, and my eyes look so good but natural. HIGHLY recommend, thoughtful, attentive, kind, and has a great bedside manner. Also, all if his staff is helpful and great as well!
I recently had eyelid surgery performed by Dr. Lo, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Dr. Lo's patience, expertise and dedication to amazing results were evident throughout the entire process. From the initial consultation to the post-operative care, he was incredibly attentive and made sure all my concerns were addressed. The results are life-changing and have exceeded my expectations. Dr. Lo's expertise and meticulous approach ensured a smooth recovery and stunning outcome. I highly recommend Dr. Lo for anyone considering eyelid surgery. Thank you, Dr. Lo, for your outstanding work!
Dr. Lo is very informative, kind, and patient. He explained what was happening with my eyelids and followed by what he proposes to do plus a few options. I accepted and the outcome is much better than I expected. I highly recommend Dr. Lo. Look no further. See pic. (Thousand words).
I am a Kaiser Permanente patient/member. I was referred to Dr Lo in the Torrance office, because the oculoplastic specialist in LA had retired. I am so glad he retired, so that I could go outside of Kaiser for this procedure! Dr. Lo reassured me that this was not a complicated issue, and he removed the eyelid lesion that had plagued me for over two years and would not be properly addressed by Kaiser ophthalmologists in Orange County. Dr Lo is kind, energetic, and he has a great "bedside manner." I heartily recommend Dr Lo and Eyesthetica!
My experience was great!! Dr Lo is good doctor in my opinion. The surgery didn’t hurt at all and didn’t take very long. I am healing well and can see one hundred percent better . I would highly recommend Dr Lo to anyone.
I had droopy eyelids and uneven eyelid creases that interfered with my vision. I went to 4 different doctors to address it, but each one dismissed me and made me feel like my issues were non-issues. I was despondent with my droopy and uneven eyelids, so I searched extensively for an oculoplastic surgeon. I came across Dr. Lo, and I really liked what I saw of his before and after photos and how symmetrical the results of his eyelid surgeries were. I was so impressed that, even though I’m not a California resident, I booked a 4-hour flight to see him. During my consult, I explained my issues to him, and I finally felt listened to and I felt like I was being taken seriously. Dr. Lo did not dismiss me and my concerns. Unlike the other doctors, he actually palpated my eyelid creases and discovered a chalazion that 4 other doctors missed, and he removed it immediately with no pain. His medical expertise and excellent patient care gave me the confidence to undergo ptosis repair, upper blepharoplasty, and double eyelid surgery with him. My surgery went well and with minimal pain. Dr. Lo personally called the next day to check in on me. I was impressed with him taking the time to do that. To me, that shows that he is a very responsible surgeon and is deeply committed to ensuring his patients’ well-being. Now that I’m a few months post-op, I am so, so, so happy with my results! I can see so much better now! My eyelids are no longer droopy, and everyone says I look more awake. Dr. Lo took the time to listen to me, did extensive measurements on my eyelids, and charted out a surgical plan to give me the best results he could for me – he fixed my eyelids and gave me my confidence back! As an out-of-town patient, it was a struggle to navigate an unfamiliar city, but Dr. Lo’s skill, kindness, his willingness to listen, and his respect for his patients was worth coming to LA to see him. I highly recommend him for any eyelid concerns.
From the moment I met you I knew you were the one. In you I found a surgeon with a kind manor, patience, sense of humor, professionalism and the gifted and artistic skill that you have been blessed with. Your dedication to your career and to your patients is evident. I’m sure you’ve heard it all many times, but it warrants repeating that your talents are a gift to all who have been fortunate enough to have you as their surgeon. I could not be more pleased and excited about the more youthful, rested, and natural look you achieved. The results are truly remarkable. Needless to say, I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone seeking a plastic surgeon. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. You and your staff are simply the best of the best.
I am 67 and I recently had my eyes done with Dr. Lo after careful saving a research for 10 years. I am a very nervous and cautious person by nature and Dr. Lo took every measure to make sure I felt cared for and assured and I love my results! Three other women from my gym have now gone to see him. I can not recommend enough.
After surgery, the skin around an incision can be red, dry, and inflamed. Even at this point, I would recommend continuing with a silicone-scar gel regularly. If the skin is dry and inflamed, be sure to add on aquaphor or vaseline over the scar gel nightly. I agree that I would give it more time before laser. Be well and best of luck.
Hello. From your photo, it appears that there is both brow ptosis and dermatochalasis (excess upper eyelid skin) that both contribute to heaviness/weighting down on the upper eyelid. If you are looking for a more conservative improvement, without changing the shape of the brows, a blepharoplasty will be a great first step. However, if brows are still deemed low or if there is still "hooding" on the eyelids, a brow lift can be added at a later date. Be well.
There are options to help address your concerns. The left upper eyelid is ptotic, which can be improved by repair. This is a relatively small procedure and will help restore symmetry. There is fat prolapse to the lower eyelids. You may have heard about filler, however, in your case because of your bone structure, lower blepharoplasty will likely yield more profound and long term results. An in person evaluation with an oculoplastic surgeon will certainly be helpful in your case! Be well and best wishes.
An in person exam is required to determine if there is "extra" skin that can still be removed. However, it is important to note that the most important thing is that there is enough skin left so that the eye can close and the eye is protected. With that said, sometimes when there is hollowness in the upper eyelid is not addressed, there can appear to be an excess of skin when there is not. I would discuss opportunities to add volume to the upper eyelid (e.g. filler, fat grafting) with an oculoplastic surgeon. Be well.
Unfortunately, the muscles that lift the brow create some horizontal lines across the forehead. So, as you have noticed, frontalis botox can sometimes inadvertently drop the eyebrows. I would try to see an oculoplastic surgeon that can inject the glabella and lateral orbicularis to weaken the eyelid depressors. A very small amount of botox can be placed to the high frontalis-- but this should only be added gradually with an experienced injector! Often, not every horizontal line can be eliminated. Best wishes and be well.
