The Da Vinci of Eyes

ORIGINAL POST

The Da Vinci of Eyes

In July of 2018, I had upper blepharoplasty and lower eyelid CO2. I waited 6 months to write this review because I wanted to be able to show photos of the healed scar.
The entire experience from the initial consultation up to post operative care was stellar. His office staff is so organized, thorough and kind. It's clear that Dr. Parsa has surrounded himself with people that have his same level of excellence. Dr. Parsa was also very kind and genuine. I never once felt like he was under-experienced, over-confident, uninterested, dishonest, or fake like I have felt in other plastic surgeons offices.
As for the results, let me start by saying that when it comes to plastic surgery, I am extraordinarily picky about natural looking results. I am a hyper-realist painter that mostly paints people, so I have a very sharp eye (no pun intended) when it comes to facial features. I've been researching facial plastic surgeons for years, kinda as a preemptive thing so I'd know who to go to when the time came. And I'm not exaggerating when I say that Dr. Parsa is THE ONLY doctor I have come across who has consistently produced the most natural and beautiful blepharoplasties. Many plastic surgeons claim they provide natural results, but Dr. Parsa is the only one I've seen that actual understands what natural is supposed to look like. He is truly a master artist.
I was so happy after the surgery that I cried...I didn't expect to get emotional, but I was just so grateful to have my eyes back again. I had spent the previous 8 years going through stage 3 uterine cancer, a divorce, deaths in the family, two bipolar boyfriends, depression and anxiety, and financial difficulties. It's all over now, and the past year has been amazing, but when I looked in the mirror I felt like I had aged much quicker in the last few years than I expected. I felt good inside, but looked so tired on the outside. Now when I look in the mirror it feels like he had given me the last 10 years of my life back.
The only thing that was even slightly disappointing is that the CO2 doesn't last very long. In a few months my lower eyelids looked almost the same again. That's not to say I think it's a bad procedure, it's just that I spent most of those good months indoors healing anyway (I had a lip lift at the same time with another doctor and didn't feel comfortable in public for several months.) But if you can afford to get regular CO2 treatments from Dr Parsa, I recommend it because it was amazing how much it tightened and smoothed my lower lids!
I'm not a wealthy person, and this was definitely a luxury expense for me, but it was worth every penny. I would never trust my eyes to anyone but him. Thank you, Dr. Parsa!

Beautiful work! Question: how long did you wait before wearing makeup?
Wow! Your eyes look soooo good! It must be nice to have that youthful look back again. I love wearing makeup on my eyes and it's so much harder and doesn't look as good with the extra skin there. I'm having mine done next month by a different doctor but stopped by to let you know you look fantastic!
Wow! Looking amazing. Thx for sharing I need to go see him!
Hi blackbirdsinging, Nice feminine eyes. May I ask what the cost was? A few years back, I was in Beverly Hills and I had a complementary consultation with him. He was very kind and he wrote me a prescription for steroid eye drops to boot.
Thank you for posting this! It’s been very helpful to see the scars. The 6 month scar is almost invisible. I have a gf who had hers done by another dr and her scars are considerably more noticeable even a year out.
