AVOID THIS DOCTOR!!! He cut off my upper eyelids to the point that they no longer closed and left me with severe dry eye. What should have been a routine Blepharoplasty turned into an absolute nightmare.
Dr. Creech did not go over the procedure itself or the aftercare that should have been given i.e. ointment, ice etc. When I showed up for a follow up visit two weeks early with my eyes on fire, he looked at me like I was nuts and finally explained that I needed eye drops and ointment to keep my eyesight safe. He told me with time, all should work itself out and that massage might help.
Six months later, with my eyes still horribly dry and disfigured, he returned my money for the procedure and explained that he just "didn't know what happened." I asked for him to pay for any future reconstruction and have been denied.
Anyone reading this who has been harmed by plastic surgery knows the horror show it can be. The regret, shame, pain, financial hardship, etc. The good news is there are great reconstructive surgeons out there who can help. Dr Kenneth Steinsapir reconstructed me this past summer and I can now close my eyes when I sleep and I no longer have one giant eye. My eyes are quite simply beautiful.
Lessons learned, don't get eye surgery from a breast and butt doctor and don't assume because a surgeon has confidence and 30 plus years in practice, he/she is any good at what they do. DO NOT LET THIS DOCTOR TOUCH YOUR FACE. Plastic surgery in the U.S. is like the wild west. Please learn from my mistake and be careful.
P.S.
His staff were very professional and nice. No complaints there.
