Dr. Chang is Amazing!

WORTH IT
I am so pleased with the level of care I received from Dr. Chang and her staff. I initially chose to have Dr. Chang perform an upper and lower blepharoplasty for three reasons:
1. She had the best reviews, with patients noting both the quality of her work and her compassion
2. I was unhappy with my hooded upper eyelids and the crepey skin under my eyes
3. I had a retinal detachment that left me with very low vision in one eye, so I wanted an oculoplastic specialist who would be best be able to protect my "good" eye.
We spoke about my options, realistic expectations, and the healing process during my consultation. Dr. Chang was very honest and easy to talk to, which is rare to find in a medical professional. She listened to my questions and concerns, but most importantly I felt like I was chatting with a friend. We ultimately decided on doing an upper blepharoplasty and a lower "pinch" with a chemical peel for the lower lids, which was an in-office procedure, vs. a brow lift.
Dr. Chang and her staff kept in contact with me before the procedure, providing very explicit instructions that were easy to follow. The procedure itself was very quick and pain-free. One second I was texting my sister that I had just taken my pills, and before I knew it I was being told to follow my brother out to the car to leave! I was pretty out of it for the next twelve hours or so, so don't plan on driving for quite some time if you have this procedure.
Recuperation went well. I normally wear contacts because glasses hurt my head, so I just went without during the day and wore glasses to watch TV at night for two weeks. I went on a trip exactly two weeks after and there was still bruising at that time; it was three weeks before the bruising was almost all gone.
I am very happy with my results. I wanted to look refreshed but not like I had work done, which I believe I achieved. I am so thankful that I found Dr. Chang!

Hi! Can I ask how you found your surgeon, I am looking for one near me right now. Did you just google surgeons, look on social media or was it a referral? How long did it take?

Hello! I googled "oculoplastic surgeons near me." There were two that had great ratings with over 200 reviews: one male, one female. My retinal specialist then suggested the male surgeon, saying he was fantastic. I hadn't told him I had narrowed it down to those two. I ultimately chose Dr. Chang because although both surgeons had clients who were happy with the results, she consistently had people mentioning her kindness and compassion. I also felt like a female would better understand me.
Not sure what you mean by how long did it take. If you're referring to the surgery, I was in and out of her office in under three hours. If you meant how long until I was seen, I had the initial appointment two weeks after I called, and scheduled the surgery for three months later when we both were available.
Hope this helps!
