My experience with Dr. Taban was beyond what I expect with a doctor, let alone a Beverly Hills plastic surgeon. At 34, and being a very vain person (admittedly), I noticed some slight aging and hollowness around my eye area, and had looked into PRP & dermal fillers under the eye to restore lost volume. After postponing for MONTHS, and after multiple consults with other doctors, I decided on Dr. Taban for Belotero in the tear trough. Dr. Taban spoke to me several times via email and phone PRIOR to my first appointment, to ease my fears and answer all my questions -- no other doctor in the area would even get on the phone with me (or any patient) until they were paid a consult fee. I was stunned that this doctor emailed me back so quickly, even before I was a patient.
The procedure itself was great and painless (I have a high tolerance, though -- not all do) and my under-eyes look AMAZING. It took maybe 30 minutes, tops. Restored volume under the eyes and I look 24 again ! It's amazing what a small tweak can do to the face to restore youthfulness - and a nurse, I do not advocate over-done plastic surgery. In fact, they KEY to any good cosmetic procedures is to look at someone, and never know they've had something done. My eyes have always been my thing, the defining feature on my face and the feature I get the most compliments on (even his lovely receptionist, Zaira, told me how much she loved my eyes!), so I am very picky about what I put on/near them, or what products I use on them. Definitely blown away, and definitely worth every dime!
As for the Belotero, the filler is much softer than the older generations such as Restalyne or Juvaderm -- very suited for the eye area I find. I did bruise under my left eye, and that took 2 weeks to fully heal -- but it wasnt big, and easily concealed. The under eye area is very smooth, and looks much more youthful -- hollowness is all but gone. Belotero leaves no lumpiness as the others can, either -- looks very smooth and with Belotero, the risk of Tyndall effect is very low, too. I'm very glad I chose this filler, and will probably use it moving forward (also want to try Restalyne Silk, a new filler smaller in particle size, too). DEFINITELY way better than Restalyne for the tear trough!
I can say without a doubt I highly recommend Dr. Taban for anyone looking to spruce up their eye youthfulness, or to anyone who has suffered some kind of eye injury, as Dr. Taban is an oculoplastic surgeon -- specializing in the ocular region of the face. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my eyes, that is for sure!

Hey I found your review, and I was wondering you pay $1000 for how many syringes? And how are the results so far? Thanks
Great, thank you for sharing your review! Do you have any pics you can share too? Love to see your results!
How much Belotero did you have placed?
