48 Yr Old - Asian Eyelid Revision with Ptosis Repair

My eyes were looking tired and when I would smile they would look closed. I began by looking into Asian eyelid surgery and went to Beverly Hills in 2016. In 2016 I consulted with 2 surgeons and went with the more expensive famous young surgeon - mistake # 1. The 2nd mistake was that he does not do ptosis repair which he said I did not need. After a failed 2016 surgery, I looked to have revision done one year later in 2017. The original surgeon offered to do the surgery for very little money but said he would do the exact same surgery and that I still did not need ptosis repair. I did not like the idea of doing the same thing twice hoping for a different result. So I went around the corner and consulted with Dr. Charles Lee - thank goodness I did. This time I chose experience and expertise since Dr. Lee is able to do ptosis repair if needed. He did think that I needed some ptosis repair. The surgery experience was night and day from the first one. The first 2016 surgery - yes the office is beautiful and they are super great at emails/text/follow up - BUT the surgery itself was not as detailed as Dr. Lee's. Dr. Lee met with me pre-op and drew lines on my eyes, showed me with a mirror and then we headed right into surgery. I was under conscious sedation so I could hear everything but did not feel any pain. Coming out of surgery I was much more alert. I had very little bruising unlike the first surgery where I looked like I had been beat up. I am thrilled just 1 week out of surgery with the results so far - Please go see Dr. Lee!!
