Love my Skin Pinch & Canthoplasty Results

Dr.Straka did exactly what i wanted him to do and I am very happy with my results. I was really worried about retraction and this procedure possibly being a mistake because of some of the things I read and because I didn’t have a lot of skin under my eyes but I just decided to do it anyways and I’m glad I did. I’m only 23 days post op and they said my final results would be in 6 months which I hope not much changes because I’m already extremely happy. Let me know if you have any questions!

The Best Decision I Have Ever Made

I wish I could give 10 stars instead of 5. Dr. Straka and his staff are beyond amazing. This was the best experience of my life and I am so happy with the outcome. I am almost 70 and I did not want to continue on this aging path with my eyes. I researched this procedure for almost a year and this is the main reason I am writing to tell every one it is never too late if you want a change. My main advice - only use an Oculoplastic Surgeon like Dr. Straka for your eyes. I had a horrible experience with a Plastic Surgeon who wanted to put $7000 of fillers in my eyes as a solution. Horrible advice and I am so shocked that this Dr is getting others to use fillers when you need surgery to fix this issue. Updated on 5 Sep 2024: I wish I could give 10 stars instead of 5.

I had an eyebrow lift, lower blephoroplasty with fat transfer and lip lift.

Dr. Straka is top notch. I started noticing the hollowness and under eye bags on my face. I also didn’t like the downward turn of my eyebrows. I wanted a surgeon that focused on this area of the face. I watched all of Dr. Straka’s before and afters on Instagram and knew he was the surgeon for me. I had an eyebrow lift, lower blephoroplasty with fat transfer and lip lift. I could not be happier with my results.

Life changing! Lower blepharoplasty, fat pad repositioning & laser

I had a lower blepharoplasty with fat pad repositioning and a laser treatment to tighten the skin below my eyes. I had the best experience. I was awake for the duration of the procedure and had minimal discomfort post procedure. I am so incredibly happy with my results and would highly recommend Dr Straka. Not only is he great at what he does, but he is so very kind and genuine as well. My procedure was a life changing boost of confidence!

Talented surgeon - he cares about your well being and results

Dr. Straka is an amazing surgeon, very knowledgeable, and just overall good at what he does, which is surprisingly hard to find nowadays. While most doctors seem to just exist to collect paychecks, he seems to actually care about your well being and results. You're in great hands with this guy. Can't recommend him enough.

Still look like me only more refreshed. Eyes are much less tired.

For 10 years I have used botox intermittently to help refresh my heavy eyelids. Now at 50, the botox could no longer do the heavy lifting of the redundant, excess skin. I visited/interviewed multiple providers in Wisconsin but ultimately wanted a specialist with many photos of successful outcomes. I did not want to travel to the east or west coast and was happy to find an experienced provider in the midwest, less than 8 hours away. We did a pre-consult via Zoom in October. I went by myself in January and used La Perle Concierge for 8 hours of post-op care. (Mainly to get me to the hotel and check on me the following day) The Columbus Eye Surgery Center is fantastic as is Dr. Straka and his team. I stayed 7 days at a local hotel that offered both breakfast and dinner and it was less than $100/day..like a cruise! Dr. Straka performed upper/lower eye lid bleph with fat repositioning toward my tear troughs as well as fat grafting from the abdomen. I have a smoother contour of my lower eyelids now. I took my 1989 grad photo (big hair and all) so he knew that in general I have always had heavier upper eyelids but just wanted to remove the lax skin. I still look like me only more refreshed. My eyes are much less tired at the end of the day too. Although recommended I did not do the TRL contour laser for the undereye wrinkles. We were spending time in Florida and I knew this would prolong healing. I am so happy with everything and would certainly recommend Dr. Straka as he is an expert in his field of oculoplastic surgery. I will try to post some photos soon.

Lower bleph, endoscopic brow lift, fat transfer & laser resurfacing

This is my second attempt to improve my eye area. In 2015, I had upper and lower bleph w/TCA peel with a different doctor and the results were underwhelming. I was afraid of having any other work done right away for fear it would look worse. As my wrinkles and hollowness under my eyes were getting worse over time, I started researching surgeons. I consulted with 4 surgeons from Cincinnati to Columbus and was referred to Dr. Straka by one of those surgeons. After visiting his website, social media pages and having a consultation, I was sold. We agreed to lower bleph, endoscopic brow lift, fat transfer, and laser resurfacing for the best possible outcome. I had local anesthesia and never felt any pain. I don't remember a lot of the surgery, thankfully. To try to summarize the past 6 weeks: Recovery - (depended on my husband for virtually everything for the first 3 days). Had to sleep upright for a week, could not bend forward for 3 or 4 days; but the worst part or me was about day 3 & 4 when the goop in my eyes caused my lids to stick together making it hard to open my eyes. It usually happened after a period of sleep and it really freaked me out. My husband texted with Dr Straka and he reassured us this was normal and not to be alarmed, and suggested a warm compress. That helped a lot. I had several staples in my head that needed removed at day 6. I was terrified that it would be painful but I honestly did not feel a thing when he removed them. All that anxiety for nothing! Haha. Approaching 7 weeks post, I see incredible improvement overall. When my face is at "rest" I don't have hollows anymore.With a small smile, the area is virtually wrinkle-free. However, when I smile big, there are still some stubborn wrinkles that refuse to go away. I did express my feelings about that and Dr Straka humbly acknowledged that they may never go away, and perhaps a small amount of Botox might help. I am still thinking/considering that. Recovering from the laser was by far the hardest part. But after healing, it was so worth it. I can see a big difference and I am ecstatic. Dr Straka is masterful, thoughtful and attentive. My only regret is that I didn't find him sooner.

Malar edema resolved and provided a more youthful look to my mid face

In 2016 I developed sudden malar edema post neurotoxin injections around my eyes. I tried many options to end the edema, and none worked permanently. I saw Dr. Straka's IG showing a repair of a situation very similar to mine and went for a consult. He suggested a comprehensive approach of lower bleph with fat transfer, a 3-treatment serious of morpheus8 for skin tightening, TRL around my eyes to improve skin quality and treat crows feet and a soof lift to provide a more youthful look to my mid face. He was very clear that malar edema is incredibly difficult to treat and that he couldn't promise complete resolution, but that I would definitely see an improvement. I decided to go for it, and now, 4 months post-op, could not be happier with the results. I would highly recommend Dr. Straka and his team if you are interested in this kind of procedure.

Amazing face / neck lift, upper and lower eyelids, lip lift, fat transfer, TRL, filler, and Botox

Facial plastic surgery can be a very overwhelming process from start to finish. To searching and researching the right doctor, to the consolation, surgery, follow-up, etc. Dr. Straka from start to finish was amazing! Listened to goals, explained process, patient care, follow-up, and the most important - RESULTS! We had a face / neck lift, upper and lower eyelids, lip lift, fat transfer, TRL, filler, and Botox, all amazing results and wouldn’t recommend anyone else. Quite frankly, Dr. Dan is the best in the business. His staff is super amazing as well!

I have had several procedures done from eyelid surgery, to laser treatments and finally, a facelift

I cannot speak more highly of my experience with Dr. Daniel Straka and his team at Plastic Surgery Ohio. I have had several procedures done from eyelid surgery, to laser treatments and finally, a facelift. Dr. Straka is not only extraordinarily skilled and talented, he made it a point to be clear about realistic expectations and outcomes for each procedure. We were always on the same page because I knew that he was being completely honest and forthright with me. Beyond his professional expertise, Dr. Strakaq looked at my face as if he were an artist and helped sugest what treatments, surgery or procedure would produce the best results from his "palette". Dr. Straka is passionate about his work and that translates into a shared sense of pride with his patients when we both can look back and see the amazing results. I also felt that Dr. Straka looked at me as a whole person - not just cosmetically -he wanted to know my motivation and my place in life for what would work best for my age. Therefore, he could better understand and ascertain how to achieve "our" goals. When people discuss plastic surgery and they evaluate how they see what others have done, they generally say one of two things: a. "It looks like they've had work done" (BAD) b. "You can't even tell they've had work done" (GOOD) There's a certain irony in these comment when it comes to Dr. Straka because it is evident that he doesn't view his profession as "work." It's more of his mission to provide the very best that he can for his patients. He was committed to treating me as an individual - (no matter how minor my questions or concerns may have seemed.) Time spent with him in the office, or the surgery center, aftercare and even holidays and weekends never seemed like an imposition. I received responses promptly from him his office team and everyone involved in my care. I would be remiss if I did not mention his staff that that helped me through every procedure- Cristina, Kathleen and the nurses in the surgery center. They all treated me as if I were their most important patient and I never felt like a number on a surgery schedule. I would recommend Dr. Straka and his team in a heartbeat and look forward to continuing to see him for maintenance and any further procedures I may consider in the future. They are simply the best!
