WORTH IT$1,000
This was the second of two surgeries to lift my eyelids, (left then right). The procedure on each eye was short and very successful. There was some discomfort around the eyelids for about a week after each procedure, but both lids healed quickly, and my vision and appearance were greatly improved. The follow care was very good, and I am quite pleased with the result.

Hi,
Congrats on a successful surgery. Can you share before and after pics? I'm looking to have surgery soon too.

See above ....I updated my previous comments. I regret that I do not have the before and after photos, but the results were quite good. My eyes looked 90% closed prior, and now they look normal and I look 10+ years younger. Please note my comments on cost. My procedure was covered by insurance and I only paid a small deductible. I highly recommend Dr James Gordon.
thanks for your response. If you don't mind my asking, what was the level of your ptosis classified as? mild, moderate or severe?
Moderate
I do not have before and after photos but the results were quite the the surgery was satisfactory and the lift was equal in both eyelids. Regarding the cost, I only guessed as my surgery was covered by insurance. I've heard that these procedures cost around $5000.
