Provider Review
I was inducted under general anesthesia to have 3 procedures done: Four lid Blepharoplasty, Brow Pexy and Full facial Fat-transfer. Dr Rian Maercks also did a “lateral canthus “,as he explains after the surgery in simple words that he attached the side of my eye higher into the bone, I went and investigated on the internet and found out it is called lateral canthus. I asked if he can reverse it, he answered it was simple I just need to massage the corner of my eyes .I feel if I massage the corner of my eyes I will have “droopy” eyes .Other doctors told me not to do that. I am so upset as not only I do not like this look and now have more wrinkles around my eyes but more importantly I have vision problems in my right eye . These vision problems appear only AFTER the surgery and I have talked about over and over with DR. Maercks. After the surgery Dr. Maercks told me “We are not a good patient doctor match “. I have been in two facial doctors to see if they find a solution to my problem. Both doctors I have seen told me my eyes are uneven and one even told me this surgery “lateral canthus “was made wrong and I have one eye higher than the other. I also been to eye doctors and they all told me I need glasses now, I am trying to get the courage to see if I can have surgery to correct this problem. List of problems: Number one and most important, my vision in the right eye has deteriorated by the surgery. I have 2 huge pouches of fat under my eyes, I never had that before, and my right eye is even red from the extra force the fat causes by pulling out my skin, also causing the skin to stretch. I have wrinkle lines after the upper blepharoplasty due to the crooked cut done above my eyelids I now have lines due to the skin pulling in different directions. Additionally my right eye lid was cut much higher than my left. I have a bump under my right eye because the doctor aloud two separate stiches to stick together for way to long and now I have a bump that is not going away as promised by the doctor. I have more wrinkles around my eyes then I ever had before, my crows feet are now very distinguished after the doctor changed my eye shape with the lateral canthus. When I complaint about a fat pocket above my right eye the doctor told me that “some fat must had move to that location by mistake. I am not a doctor but I don’t believe fat moved from my forehead to above my right eye (where he had made an extra high incision) by “itself”. I still feel that fat pocket and it is still bothering me.
