1 year post-op - easy recovery, no pain medication needed

ORIGINAL POST

This is Your Guy for Eyelid Surgery! Wonderful

WORTH IT$3,250
I have had several procedures done and this was, by far, the best. Dr. Chen is fantastic. Totally happy with the results. This is all he does and he has performed 25,000+ eyelid surgeries and knows what he is doing. Super easy recovery…looks worse than it feels. I actually needed no pain medication at all during recovery. Stitches removed after a week, then about another week for bruising to subside and I was all healed and looking great. I would recommend to Dr. Chen to anyone.

Do you mind me asking what you paid ?

It was $3250 in may 2020, I am sure it is more now for my eyes. My neck lift was $12K, not worth it. I could have done a lot better elsewhere, but I thought this surgeon was going to be awesome as he had good credentials. He also said if you were not happy, he would fix it no charge, and I went back in after 14 months and said I was not happy and he disagreed and said my results were fantastic. Well, they are not. He has zero intentions of helping me out, and his 100% guarantee is subject to his opinion, so I guess I just blew 12 grand. I literally look exactly the same.

You mentioned you have had other procedures what problems were you still having?? I've had 2 procedures so far and going for my 3rd on my upper and lower lids. I still have ptosis in one eye and the lower lid I have a wrinkle or a shelf that want to away!! I've even had a laser CO2 performed which looks great but that one wrinkle is still there every morning staring back at me when I get up!! Lol.. Any of this sound familiar?

I just did the upper lids and I had a neck lift, that is it. Dr. Chen said I did not need the lower eyes and he is right. I fixed that with RETIN A!!! Just get some retin a for your lids if they aren’t bad. Yeah, it takes awhile, like 2-3 years, but if your problem is minimal, you will get a lift on both your upper and lower. I surgically did my uppers, but my lowers are all from retin A.

I have only done this one procedure on my eyes. The other procedures I had done were a neck lift and I had a breast reduction surgery. the neck took forever to fully recover from and I am just “okay” with the results. I am waiting to post my results as I still feel like it is healing. the breast reduction surgery did not go well after the procedure and I ended up getting septic as the surgeon should have put drains in. I also keloided with the breast surgery.

You need to wear tapes on your scars for six months so it won’t have raised scars

I had the WORST surgeon for my breasts, a guy named John Corey. Awful person, crappy results…not to mention I went into septic shock 5 days later and he could have cared less.

This surgeon should have given me drains and he is a hack. I could have died. Later, I went to my now retired dermatologist and he recommended me buying this silicone patches thing, and it helped a lot. I just hate this Jon Corey guy…he is such a jerk. He does not care about his patients after he gets his $. Just a hack.
