WORTH IT
1000% worth it! I went to Houston's Occulo-Plastic Surgeon Dr Charles Soparkar at the suggestion of my dermatologist. She told me to trust her, that I didn't need to research him, and that this procedure would change my life. I didn't even know it was a thing! I just knew I hadn't seen my eyelids in at least 10 years and my eyelashes looked stupid when I wore mascara lol!
My derm was right! I went for a consult and he has an amazing staff! So kind and informative! Then Dr Soparkar came in and put me completely at ease.
His staff was able to get the ptosis repair covered by insurance, and I had both procedures done 12/15/16. He has a very specific post-surgery protocol and I had very little bruising. See for yourselves!
I did take pics pretty much every day, so if y'all want to see more than these three before/afters, let me know. By 10 days, nobody could even tell that I had anything done!

It actually wasn't. The procedure itself was pain free. The recovery nearly wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, although I really wanted the stitches out by day 7! I couldn't believe how minor the bruising was.

I'm so glad! I feel like a walking billboard for him bc I think he's the best. I've sent several friends to him, as well as my hairdresser and the lady who does my brows. You'll be so happy you did it. Let me know what you think after your consult!
