WORTH IT
I am a returning client of Dr. Adam Cohen of TheArtofEyes. When it comes to appearance, especially one's face, you have to stick with what and who exceedes your expectations. I've had less permanent procedures, such as botox and fillers, performed by Dr. Cohen as well as other practitioners and have chose to return to Dr. Cohen.
I eventually reached a point where I personally felt that I needed something more permanent and consulted with Dr. Cohen once again to discuss options. Dr. Cohen explained different procedures which would work best for my facial construction as well as explaining what would not work and the risks that came with it.
After months of pondering, I once again, consulted with Dr. Cohen and explained that I was mentally ready for a surgical procedure. After Dr. Cohen explained that certain procedures would make it obvious that I had work done, he then outlined what specifically he would do to treat what bothered me most about my face; which were the bags under my eyes.
Dr. Cohen gave me an education on how the procedure is typically performed and how it would be performed on my face because of the different thicknesss of my skin, the natural wrinkle lines and facial muscle structure. This all made sense to me because a typical procedure ran the risk of my lower lids being pulled away from my eyes and creating constant dry eyes.
Dr. Cohen described where incisions would be made, how much skin would be removed and the healing time-frame.
I scheduled the surgery with his assistant, Elissa and communication was always satisfying and service was V.I.P.
The day of surgery, I arrived at the hospital, checked in / registered, and with in an hour I was prepped by staff, and Dr. Cohen visited bedside amd confirmed the procedure he was going to do, how long it would take and everything else I felt I needed to know before I was discharged.
A few minutes later I was taken to the operating room. Next thing I knew, I woke up in the recovery bed and I felt great! In less than an hour, I was on my way home. From the time I left my house to the time I returned was less than 5 hours!
I'm on day 4 of healing and have followed Dr. Cohen's instructions regarding eating, treating and cleaning. I barely have bruising, there is swelling but it is subsiding and I can tell that the bags under my eyes that I hated seeing everyday were not there any longer. I still have small bandages on the incision sites and Dr. Cohen will be removing those tomorrow.
I'm looking forward to my follow-up visit tomorrow and seeing the progress. Although there is still swelling, which is to be expected, it is not as bad as I expected and I keep telling myself I should have went through with the procedure a long, long time ago.
