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.

Correction
In an earlier post i incorrectly named the eye ointment used after 10th day - it was actually Siguent Clor 1% not Hydrochlor
Unfortunately this site has not allowed edits to posts.
I have found hirudoid ointment very good to reduce the swelling, esp below eyes.

Great result, even I am sure about that now.
Dr Ben still thinks my brow muscles are working to pull up my eyebrows, as I had to do for years to see past the upper lids. I guess it became habit, and he suggested Botox might assist in relaxing forehead muscles, and letting the eyelid settle.
If I had been able to afford the lower lid bleph, I would have done it, but I was not medically indicated, just aesthetic. The lower lids copped the gravitational 'fallout' of the surgery and are possibly worse off post op, still sometimes filling like fluid bags, when I sleep prone or have been very teary, etc.

Happy with over all improvement. Still have lumpy red scar, but improving.
