I have strong undereye muscles that unfortunately, now that I am in my 40's, make me look puffy/tired. I have been told this will be a more challenging surgery because it is muscle and not fat causing my issue. Who is the most experienced oculoplastic surgeon in FL? The person you recommend to family? Please help me cut through all of the marketing. I live in Tampa but am open to travel. I've received quotes from $4,000-$14,000 for eyes only. I look forward to sharing my journey!

Answer: Oculoplastic surgeon There are several excellent oculoplastic surgeons in Florida. You can check with the ASOPRS site which will give you a listing of the surgeons who have completed an approved fellowship in ophthalmic plastic surgery, and have also passed their written and oral boards in this subspecialty. You can then have consultations to see who you would like to have do your surgery. From the photo you have posted, it should be quite straight forward.

Answer: There truly is not best. You live in a state with some excellent oculoplastic surgeons. However, so much does boil down to your personal relationship with the particular surgeon. I suggest doing your homework and visiting several of the top oculoplastic surgeons. Just because someone enjoys an excellent reputation, it does not make that surgeon necessarily right for you. Are you comfortable with the office, did the surgeon perform a detailed consultation, did they speak with you at length and answered all of your questions, are you comfortable with the office policies. All of these things are important issues.
