Devastating Results by Taban

I had retraction correction with Taban a few years ago. I had my consult via skype which lasted 10 minutes and he told me he can help me. I have devastating results, my corners are severely rounded/blunted and I have severe retraction. For the retraction he performed a Soof lift and used an alloderm graft. The Soof lift completely changed my face, my cheeks touch my eyes when I laugh. The alloderm graft gets absorbed by the body, so there is no support for the lower lids. I looked much better before I went to Taban, my corners looked completely fine and were never touched. He also performed an orbital decompression which decompressed my corners and I never needed that. I only had some slight retraction and he persuaded me that he can help me. I regret going to him and would not advise him.

I don't know who you are. It would be useful if you post your photos. If you are a real patient, I encourage you to contact my office directly to determine if there is anything I can help you with. I will say that revision eyelid surgery certainly has more limitations and perfection is not possible. The issue is how you got into trouble from original eyelid surgery with another surgeon. Again, I encourage to contact our office directly.

Botched in Beverly Hills by Taban

Completely botched after retraction correction by Taban. My eyes are now very sunken, I have decompressed closed corners and look horrible. I travelled from the Netherlands to LA and ended up completely botched.
