How it works
  • Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
  • This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
  • Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
  • Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I am so happy I decided to do this! I got a perfect result with no issues. I had some swelling and very slight bruising for a few days but not enough that I had to cover it with makeup to go to the store. I should have done this a long time ago. It brightened my whole face!

Choosing to have a facial plastic surgeon do this was a no brainer for me. When it comes to needles getting that close to my eyeballs, I would much rather have someone who pokes around in faces for a living holding that needle.

I should mention as well that I am not good with needles at all. I have passed out cold having blood drawn. Needles in my eyelids? That is the kind of thing I have nightmares about. This was really not bad at all. Other than a couple of tiny pokes I didn’t feel anything. It just feels like someone is running their finger lightly on your eyelid. The idea of it still gives me the heebie geebies, but actually having it done was a piece of cake.

Oh… and it was 2 syringes of Restylane (I had some serious eye caves) at $600 each and he used a cannula (which, from what I read, is the best way to have it done)

Dr. Kolstad is awesome! He did a phenomenal job – I got a perfect result and had an excellent experience. Some people have a naturally calm demeanor and a knack for putting people at ease and Dr. Kolstad has that. I am the ultimate wuss and I was totally at ease with Dr Kolstad. Jaina, who runs everything, is awesome as well! They both provide very attentive care – they are definitely doing things differently than any other medical office I have ever been in. It is unmistakably clear that they both care a great deal about their patients and the work they do.
