  • 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.

As stated in my original post the doctor told me that he couldn’t see anything different with the shape of my eyes and even denied that he could see my eyelashes growing inward. He also told me that if anyone else looks at it to tell them to contact him and he would tell them about my “ scarring issues that are a technical medical term that I wouldn’t understand” Well here is the proof that I was clearly gaslighted. I feel like I stayed calm and asked for a remedy or acknowledgment and neither was given.
I will be asking for compensation and if that is denied I will consider other actions.
This has been a major issue in my life. I wanted to look refreshed and instead I look freakish.

Lower bleph. Cheek lift, the good the bad and the ugly :/

I have given this one year and tried with all my might to be patient, sane and rational. I went to a board certified oculoplastic surgeon with amazing reviews and I personally know two of his past patients that had wonderful results.
I went in with the hopes that he could help with the cropping area under my eyes and some volume loss and darkness. It wasn't horrible by any means but I felt like I looked tired and just wanted to look refreshed. The doc convinced that I also needed a cheek lift so I agreed.
The survey went of but I had a pretty difficult recovery. First thing I saw was pretty serious asymmetry but I thought it might just be swelling. I had a lot of swelling and lot of bruising as well as raw skin from the CO2.
We ended up doing a revision to work on a drooping right eye and a very tight left eye about three weeks out. I saw a bit of improvement.
Due to the pandemic my follow up was cancelled. I called and sent photos about my continued issues and redness under my eyes and denting on cheeks as well as overfill and lumps from fat grafting about three -four months out. When he finally say me he dismissed all my concerns and and said he could balance the fat issues with filler and do laser on the redness for additional fees.
If my other concerns about my eye corners being rounded and waterline being flipped in at the edges had been addressed I may have felt differently but they were brushed aside.
I ended up having laser at another dr and it worked very well on the redness.
I decided to try again to get the doc to address the corners of my eyes and ptosis and also consulted with four other surgeons as well.
He agreed that they could be improved and said he would fix them and it would take about 30 minutes and hurried me out the door. I couldn't go in right away it a few months later asked if I could pay for a consultation to address my other concerns and I would be happy to pay to get some additional work done to address the other problems.
Fast forward to that appointment where he told me my eyes were fine and I didn't need them fixed and he couldn't even tell I had surgery. He was happy to do the other laser and filler work though. So here I am one year out and wondering if I am the crazy one. I'm still unhappy with my eyes and I'm embarrassed to be without glasses that hide the issues that developed after the surgery. I don't feel like I can get an honest answer from my family because they know how upset I am. Would love other opinions.
