the bags from under my eye came out very nice,then he talked me into getting the upper done when I was in the hospital.I trusted him even thou I didnt need the upper done.After I went for a check upI told him about the droopy eye lid or extra skin.He said lets wait a year and see what happens.I did wait a year and I suffered with the red all around both eyes from the laser.I TRIED TO GET TO HIM AFTER A YEAR AND HE DID NOT WANT TO HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH ME.Know that Im older I notice it even more shame on him for not doing the right thing.

I cant do anything,he assured me everything would be alright.He should have fixed it for nothing ,instead he ignored me.I know have no money to fix it.Like I said before shame on him.

Thanks for the heads up! You sound like a good candidate for the TV show ''Botched'' I believe they fix ''botched'' surgeries for free if you don't mind the correction being filmed and shown on TV.

Send him a letter to request a refund and that you won't write negative reviews about his screw up. Several women on here got their money back.

my brother had the same problem and he went back 3 times and it was still a problem. 4th time he went to someone else who didn't want to get involved. 5th person said he actually still had a stitch in his uppper and took it out then and there. and scheduled surgery.

Slefort1: You have my empathy. Doctors make themselves look so irresponsible when they refuse to fix their errors. If he does not want to do the repair, he should give you a full refund. He can afford it. I see this post is 4 years old. I hope you have resolution by now. Be well and have peace!
