Very Happy with my Results.

I am very very please with the results of my surgery with Dr. Taban. I had upper and lower lids done. I opted for the local anesthesia and and am happy I did it that way as well. The recovery was fine, I probably didn’t rest as much as I should have which maybe prolonged it slightly but I am very very happy with the end results and would do it all over again if I had to. He’s really the best.

Successful Lower Eyelid Retraction Repair with AlloDerm Spacer Grafts After Prior Blepharoplasty

After a lower eyelid blepharoplasty performed outside the U.S. resulted in visible subciliary scarring and lower eyelid retraction (worse on my right side), I sought out an experienced oculoplastic surgeon for revision. I ultimately chose Dr. Ray Taban, and I’m extremely satisfied with my outcome. Dr. Taban recommended bilateral lower eyelid retraction repair with AlloDerm spacer grafts, with a more aggressive correction on the right side that included a small midface lift. Surgery was performed on September 25, 2025. I’m now just over five weeks post-op, and the improvement is significant—my lower lids are higher, more symmetric, and the prior scars are much less noticeable. Dr. Taban was thorough, transparent, and highly knowledgeable, and his team was professional throughout the process. While the procedure was costly, the result was absolutely worth it. I would strongly recommend him to anyone dealing with eyelid retraction or complex revision surgery. I plan to post another update in a few months.

Life Changing!

Dr. Taban literally changed my life. I could not be happier with the results. We did lower eyelid surgery with a skin pinch. There is no scar under my eye whatsoever. The after photo is three months later. It took 10 years off my face! So so happy with him and his amazing staff.

A Must See for Lower Blepharoplasty

I had a lower blepharoplasty, with skin pinch, with Dr. Taban. Dr. Taban educated me, so that I did not plan to get a more invasive procedure than necessary. I was noticing general age related changes to the under eye. This procedure provides even more results for those with under eye bags which I did not have. They recommended me a great boutique hotel that was within walking distance to their clinic. The procedure was painless, with a bit of pressure for only a couple of seconds. The pain and comfort management was taken care of wisely by Dr. Taban and his team. Office staff was friendly at all times. Recovery was smooth. I would HIGHLY recommend Dr. Taban to anyone with oculoplastic desires or needs. I'm so glad I trusted Dr. with my eyes! People come to him from all over the world. He is the absolute goat at what he does, and even the doctor, who does my botox in Wisconsin, knew about him!

Cheek Filler

I travel from Oregon to see Dr. Taban. I only trust him. He uses a small amount of filler in my cheeks to leave a very natural result. Always happy. Dr. Taban also did my lower blephroplasty a few years ago and I look So much younger!

Best Decision Ever

I recently had a lower eyelid blepharoplasty, and I can’t express enough how grateful I am for the amazing care and results I received from Dr. Taban. My under-eyes had always been a major insecurity for me - they were very hollow and dark and it felt as though my right undereye was “falling” into my cheek. I never felt comfortable leaving the house without concealer. I didn’t know results like this were even possible as everyone online who had this done didn’t quite look like me nor had my exact problem. The transformation is beyond what I imagined. For the first time in over 20 years I feel confident going out without any make up. Honeslty one of the best decisions I ever made and has been nothing short of life changing. Dr. Taban was kind, thorough and has incredible surgical skill. I would highly recommend him. Thank you so very much Dr. Taban.

I Love my Results!

I love my results! I had my upper and lower lids done. Dr. Taban is an artist. His stitching is immaculate! He’s super humble which I really appreciate in a surgeon. I loved that he had the option of doing both under local anesthesia most surgeons don’t. It was a very easy processes and recovery.
