QUESTIONS ANSWERED

You may consider consulting with an expert Botox injector who understands the nuances of the arch of the brows. Dermal fillers are also being used to sculpt the brow.  Good luck.

Thank you for your question.  The price of blepharoplasty can vary based on geography.  Also take into account uppers only, lowers only or both.  There can be anesthesia costs vs. local anesthetic (only) in the office.  Fat transposition can be more costly than a purely subtractive procedure.  Good luck!

It would be helpful to see a photo so we can give you better advice.  Swelling can still be present/normal several weeks out.  Best of luck.

Microneedling is recommended to be spaced about one month between treatments.  If you wait longer, you may just get less of a result.  Good luck!

Thank you for your question.  Microneedling treatments are recommended spaced one month apart (by the company).  I would consider waiting one month between treatments to allow collagen to be created by your body.  Please consult in person with your own aesthetic specialist to ask about their recommendations.

Sorry you are experiencing this swelling after your Restylane procedure.  I would consider a second opinion in person with an expert at injecting around the eyes.  You may be a candidate for hyaluronidase to dissolve the lumps. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon.

Thank you for your question.  From your photograph it appears that you have excess skin. You can consult in person with an Oculoplastic Surgeon to see if you are a good candidate for blepharoplasty surgery to address your aesthetic complaints.  Good luck!

Thank you for your question. You may want to consult with an Oculoplastic Surgeon in person to exclude ptosis-a droop of the eyelid on the other side or proptosis-prominence of one eye.  He or she will examine you to see if there are any medical conditions that may be causing this.  This does not constitute official medical advice but it is worth getting checked out by an expert.

If there is hollowing of the periorbital area in addition to fat prolapse, your doctor may recommend fat transposition blepharoplasty. The trend is to maintain volume and to avoid a hollowed out skeletonized appearance. It is best to consult in person to see if you are a candidate for this procedure with an Oculoplastic surgeon, Facial Plastics or Plastic Surgeon who has lots of experience with eyelids.

Sorry that you are experiencing this.  It looks like you could have some allergies around the eyes.  Please consider consulting with an Oculoplastic surgeon who is both an Ophthalmologist and Plastic Surgeon.  He or she will do a full examination and provide you with recommendations.

She really knows how to place filler, scientifically and artistically

I don't have words to express how thrilled I am with the results from Dr. Kroll's treatment. I've never felt better, or looked better. And there's no swelling. I will never again see a doctor other than Dr. Kroll for a facial treatment. In fact, if Dr. Kroll ever stops practicing (God forbid), then I'll just have to let nature take its course. I can't believe the difference it makes to have such a wonderful doctor who is outstandingly kind and really knows how to place under-eye filler both scientifically and artistically!

I Highly Recommend This Doctor

Dr. Kroll performed my mullerectomy (ptosis) surgery. My eyelids were droopy and always made me look sleepy. Dr. Kroll was patient and professional. My eyes look completely natural. Nobody can tell that I've had surgery on my eyes. They just see that I look more awake.

Look No Further

I was referred to Dr. Kroll for ptosis surgery. During my consultation, Dr. Kroll was knowledgeable, patient, thorough and self-assured. I was nervous about having the procedure, and Dr. Kroll didn't pressure me. She even offered to have me come in for a second consultation if I had more questions. Some months later I returned to get more information, and she was as accommodating as she was during my first visit. When I decided to have the surgery, I felt very prepared about what to expect. Seeing Dr. Kroll in action was amazing -- she was skillful, confident, composed and compassionate. There were no surprises. The best part is my eye looks so much better (no more drooping eyelid or hollowness). If I'd known I'd be this satisfied, I would have had it done much sooner. I highly recommend Dr. Kroll.

Skilled help for a drooping eyelid, and more

I was referred to Dr. Kroll by two separate resources, and was grateful that they both lead me to her direction. I had a drooping lower right eyelid (ptosis), and I was increasingly conscious of it in pictures and in meeting new people. Even my primary care physician said to me – “you know you have a drooping eyelid, don’t you?” Dr. Kroll evaluated me and said that she could take care of it with minimally invasive techniques to flip the eyelid back and tighten the muscle. I also had a little pouch of fat in the corner of each of my eyelids, and she said she could remove the excess fat and smooth out the eyelid corners at the same time. I had the choice of doing this in her office or at the hospital, but felt more comfortable with local anesthetics in her office. It wasn’t difficult at all, and Dr. Kroll was calm, friendly, and played great music during the procedure. She was also great in follow-up afterwards – both checking in on me by phone to see how I was doing, and then in removing the stitches at the 1-week time period. She saw me whenever I had any questions throughout the recovery process. Her assistant Diane was also super helpful. I’m thrilled with the results and would recommend her surgical skills for anything eye-related! She has great technique and I’ve since used her for some Botox injections – I recommend her highly for her range of surgical and aesthetic treatments! -Upper East Side professional who values maintaining her looks and well-being

Good Experience

I recently had upper eyelid surgery performed by Dr. Debra M. Kroll. Dr. Kroll is very professional and has a great bedside manner. She answered all of my questions and was very responsive to my needs. As with any type of surgery, there is always a little bit of anxiety. From my very first visit to her office, Dr. Kroll made me feel comfortable and eased those apprehensions away. She walked me through the procedure step by step and explained everything in very simple language. If you are looking for both a skilled and experienced surgeon who cares about her patients, look no further. I highly recommend Dr. Debra M. Kroll. She does very nice work. I know this, because when I looked in the mirror after the surgery, I smiled!

Fantastic doctor

I'm so grateful that my dermatologist sent me to Dr. Kroll. She is not just very smart and professional, but also extremely warm and accessible. This was my first surgery ever, so I was a bit nervous. I was also a bit conflicted about my decision to undergo cosmetic surgery. On the day of the surgery, the doctor instantly put me at ease with her encouraging and direct approach. Equally important, her work is excellent. I felt no pain at any point, and the healing has been remarkably easy. Just two weeks later, I really do look about 10 years younger. And I'm so happy.

44 Years Old, Trust Dr. Kroll to Keep Me Looking Much Younger! - New York

I've been seeing Dr. Kroll for cosmetic treatments for about 2 years, after having sought out similar treatments from a number of cosmetic dermatologists. My conclusion is: skin doctors treat the skin. Dr. Kroll understands face on (literally) a much deeper level. She is a facial surgeon, and so knows exactly what is causing facial wrinkling or sagging. She uses botox and fillers sparingly, so I've never looked "frozen" over unnatural, just rested and fresh. Dr. Kroll can look at a face and understand how that face must have looked 20 years ago, before the march of time. And she knows exactly what treatments to use, in what amounts, in which places, to get you back to that more youthful face.
