Would Definitely Not Recommend for Upper Blepharoplasty
BJN69September 21, 2021
I had an extensive surgery list with Dr. Scheiner. The laser resurfacing was incredible... however, it was an 8 month recovery and I developed what looked like acne after about 3 months. I got very little support from the doctor and went to multiple providers in my own city for consultations which cost me a lot of money. In the end, my skin has never looked better and all my wrinkles are erased, but it was quite a traumatic experience to live through with no support from the surgeon that did the work. I had upper and lower blepharoplasty and the upper bleph is a disaster and I don't look like myself. One of my eyelids is hanging lower than the other after this surgery (ptosis) and I'm having a corrective surgery done in a few months to hopefully fix it, as well as restore the volume in my upper eyelids that was excessively removed by Dr Scheiner and I look older than I did before. I had a brow lift with Dr Scheiner that was okay. Bottom line I would say the laser surgery is incredible, but you run the risk of permanent damage if you don't heal correctly. I got lucky on that one. On the upper bleph, not so much. I hate how my eyes look and am praying that I can get the volume restored that was excessively removed by Scheiner. The lower bleph was actually pretty good. But.... there are a lot of surgeons out there. So - go find one that will do it ALL right and will support you through the process. As a side note, Toni was very responsive.
