My eyelids aren't perfect but then they weren't perfect before either! I see a few of the tiny imperfections that some of the others who post here point out as problematic. I don't see them as a problem though. My eyes look so much better now. I can even see better now! No one who cares about me was ever bothered by my sagging eyelids before surgery so there sure aren't going to notice a small indent or bump in the skin that may be there now. I have no regrets. I think Dr. Johl was an excellent surgeon and he's made a big improvement in my life. I think people who fall apart over less than perfect results should probably not have ever had surgery in the first place. We're imperfect beings in every way. Perfection is a fantasy that can only be achieved in Photoshop.
I had a very unpleasant experience with Dr.Joel. He did not like me from the start and things deteriorated after our first appointment. I should have requested another doctor, but unfortunately went ahead with the surgery.
