My Experience with Dr. Byun and His Team
I recently underwent a double eyelid procedure with Dr. Byun, and I couldn't be happier with the results. After meeting with five different doctors for consultations, I ultimately chose Dr. Byun, and it was absolutely the right decision. His experience, professionalism, and the holistic method he presented made him stand out. He explained that unlike other surgeons who typically focus on just cutting skin and fat away, he would also be manipulating the muscle behind the eyelid to achieve a more natural look with longer-lasting results. This approach gave me confidence that I would get results that not only looked great immediately but would hold up over time—something that other methods didn't seem to offer. I also liked that he is super knowledgeable in all areas of the face and has many years of experience in reconstructive surgery, cosmetic surgery and scientific research and teaching. Additionally, he listened really well to understand my perspective and address my questions/concerns.
I'll admit, the cost of surgery with Dr. Byun was significantly higher than other surgeons' quotes I received, but after much deliberation, I realized when it comes to your face, I don’t think cutting corners is worth it. And I have no regrets spending the amount I did for this surgery. From the high quality customer service to the exciting surgical results - I had an absolutely great experience.
Dr. Byun’s bedside manner was fantastic. He took the time to meet with me and my mom right before the surgery to answer any final questions, calm any nerves, and go over the procedure in detail. He even stopped by after the surgery to check in on me, which showed how much he truly cares about his patients' well-being. Bedside manner is extremely important to me, so I really appreciate Dr. Byun's level of effort here.
His team was also incredible—super responsive when I had questions post-op and always there to reassure me during my recovery. The care they provided made the entire experience that much smoother. Most importantly, I cannot emphasize enough how KIND all the nurses and Byun's staff are! I felt so cared for.
The healing process was annoying and uncomfortable. A LOT of swelling and it was a bit painful to open my eyes, especially during the first week post op. My eyelids were tender for a few months. But I knew to expect many of these things during recovery. Having a good family/friend support system and medical team made a huge difference. Also, patience is key!
Dr. Byun's approach to the consultation and follow-up appointments was collaborative, thorough and informative. As someone who’s passionate about learning more about the face, body, skin etc, I truly appreciated how Dr. Byun took the time to not only answer my questions but also share his knowledge! He made me feel comfortable and empowered in my decision-making. I loved that none of my appointments ever felt rushed, and each visit was an opportunity to learn something new about the face, the skin, and the art of plastic surgery.
That said, I do think it’s important to keep realistic expectations when it comes to plastic surgery. No one’s face or body is perfectly symmetrical, and neither was mine before the procedure. My eyes might not be exactly symmetrical, but they were never perfectly symmetrical to begin with nor are other parts of my body and face - and that’s okay!
I’m very happy with my results because they feel natural and true to who I am—just enhanced. Ultimately, perfection isn’t the goal, enhancement and naturalness are, and Dr. Byun nailed it!
On a personal side note: I had been considering this procedure for 10+ years and I am so glad I pulled the trigger on it. No more stressing about figuring out how to do makeup on eyes where half the makeup gets buried under extra skin and the eyelashes point down, no more fussing over eye glue or eye tape, no more constantly looking tired, no more frustration about my eyes feeling droopy. This procedure has felt unexpectedly life-changing. I never realized how much mental energy and stress I put into my eyes until I had this procedure. It’s truly as if a weight has been lifted off of me. Now, I have so much more mental energy to focus on other things, and I feel more confident than I ever imagined I would.
Even my mom and friends who were initially very skeptical about the procedure, have been so impressed with the results calling Dr. Byun an "artist." That’s the level of expertise and finesse he brings to his work!
Overall, Dr. Byun has exceeded my expectations, and I am beyond thrilled with the results. If you are considering any eyelid or facial procedure, I highly recommend him. His bedside manner, expertise/experience in everything plastic surgery, and commitment to delivering the best results make him an outstanding surgeon. Thank you, Dr. Byun, for giving me a beautiful, natural look that I’ll enjoy for years to come!
