Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Brow Lift & Upper Bleph to Treat Puffy Eyes
In the last two years, I developed brow ptosis that caused my eyes to become very swollen if my forehead muscles didn't compensate by lifting. The brows dropped as a result of age, and the problem was accelerated by an unfortunate 8-month work assignment requiring extreme hours of work.
In my case, the swelling in the eye orbits was mostly medial and would occur when my forehead was relaxed, which happened during sleep or long cycling road trips.
In the mornings, if the swelling was particularly bad, I would hold ice packs firmly against my eyes for awhile and would see some improvement. I also experimented with over the counter drugs such as antihistemines and diuretics; they didn't help as much, and were not a long-term solution anyway.
I went for a consultation with Dr. Ceydeli and he said I was a good candidate for a brow lift, and also recommended an upper bleph which would reduce eyelid laxity and further prevent the puffiness.
I had the surgery on 14 February 2017, so I'm almost 4 weeks post-op.
