I didn't want to look different just refreshed, and that is exactly what I got

After initially meeting Dr. Blake and talking through with him what procedure I wanted to have done, I decided to go ahead and have a Face/Neck lift, Fat transfer, Laser and Upper/Lower 4 lid Bleph. Dr. Blake and his staff at Illume Cosmetic Surgery could not have been more patient nor kind with me. I urge anyone reading this review to really ask yourself is this what you want, as you have to be patient and nothing happens overnight. Over a year long period Dr. Blake and his staff have been nothing but courteous, kind and reassuring to me that I would eventually look the way I desired. I am by nature not one of the most patient people put on this earth, and I continually went in to see Dr. Blake complaining that I was swollen and bruised. What I didn't fully understand nor grasp at the beginning of this journey is that you have to be patient even though I was reassured time after time by Dr. Blake's staff that everything would come good. I'm sure there has been more than one occasion when Dr. Blake and his staff have dreaded me coming into the office, but, what I have realized over this year long period is that Dr. Blake is one of the kindest and most educated Doctors I have ever dealt with. He spent time with me explaining and calming me down time after time that everything was healing according to our plan. I continually go back to this clinic for Botox and in the near future a little tweaking here and there. My advice to anyone wanting to have this procedure done is to really research it ahead of time. It takes months to finally feel like yourself again but looking much better thanks to Dr. Blake. I am a 66 year old female who has a career where people are continually looking at me, I didn't want to look different just refreshed, and that is exactly what I got. 18 months on I am still glad I went ahead and had this surgery and I would not have wanted any other surgeon other than Dr. Blake. This Doctor makes magic happen.
