Ptosis

I have had blepharoptosis surgery and it’s been 17 days and I feel like I look weird and creepy and right. I don’t feel like they can improve so much more to where they will look normal, can my eyes open more and look more normal in the future

You are just 17 Days After Surgery !!! No one looks Good After Surgery ! It needs several months- IMHO this Review is not fair ... wait a least 3 months before judging the result.

I never complained about the surgeon at that time and did not leave a review under his title I just had doubts and was looking for advice so his reputation isn’t damaged by this review but my doubts were right and he ruined my nose and didn’t give me the eyelid surgery I wanted are you his friend or something trying to defend his business?

No I don't try to defent his business i had my self a few botched Nose Jobs i kow how you feel. I just wanted to make clear that this REALLY Needs time - don't judge too early. The Body needs time to heal after the surgery everyone looks weird and ugly :D However, (I see that) your review is now 4 Months ago - if you say you still don't like the result then it is a fair review and i know how you feel . But don't be depressed - just find the right surgeon to fix this. My Nose got also fixed in my 4th revision rhino and looks very good now.

Do not go to this doctor . I went in for a rhinoplasty and eyelid ptosis surgery. My nose bridge is now very flat and shorter than before but perhaps that is all that could have been done with my nose so I’m not complaining about this even though I’m not very happy with the end result of my nose but like I said perhaps it’s all that could have been done. With my eyelid surgery one was droopier than the other and seemed larger so I asked to make the upper eyelids more symmetrical but too specifically not make myself so different and not too change my right eyelid because I liked it, I said also I don’t want very small eyelids. He said he understands but said He has to remove excess fat so I said ok but just a small bit I don’t want very small eyelids and not too much off a change. I came out of the surgery and knew something wasn’t right. My eyelids felt so tight and I could see even though I was swelling that a lot more work than I wanted was done. He told me he did a Canthopexy where my heart sank I did not want this I knew it would make a big difference and now he tells me it’s for the scleral show I did not mind it I never asked to get rid of it and do Canthopexy! Now after healing up a lot I know there is not going to be much difference to the size of my eyelids and I am not going to look closer than my old self in any given time. I look so much different that before my right eyelid is so small literally as small as possible and my left eye is now very hollow with a dark shade because of all the fat that was removed. He told me the eyelids would be nearly symmetrical and they are not at all. I understand now that a fat transfer was needed for the symmetry of my eyes I believe now that I did not even have ptosis at all. The doctor doesn’t care about you or your requests and lacked expertise, he will just do what is on his mind, so do not be surprised if you see things on your face which you did not excpect when you wake up, I know I cannot except an ideal result or too be perfect but they were simple requests not too make my eyelids very small even he knew it wasn’t possible he should have told me that he needed to do this. I had made it clear I did not want to change my identity and he said I understand you don’t want a big change. My eyes are so different. He did not even do an eye exam on me he just took pictures of my eyes and that’s all. The person that works for him and who you are communicating with makes it 10 times worse she is very rude and doesn’t answer your questions. I was a stupid desperate 18 year old when I got the surgery but don’t make the same mistake. If you want to be very depressed and suicidal go to this man he will not care about you and ruin you save up your money for someone with great expertise and make sure the communication on WhatsApp is good before you go in to get the surgery. He did not even do an eye exam on me before the surgery and said I definitely have ptosis Just by looking at a picture of me. I did not even have ptosis which was a lie. My eyelids were butchered!

who is your doctor?

Relax ! You are just a few weeks after surgery ! This needs time! Your Nose will look completely different in 6, 12 and18 Months! It will be good! Because your Nose is now straight, symmetric tip and nostrils - it has no deformities! Your Eyes also need some time! Everything will be fine !

We have seen before - after photos of the patients who made comments about Mert Demirel. Mentioned situations are out of question. Those comments are malicious and have been made to damage Mert Demirel’s reputation. Please disregard these comments.
January 2, 2021
Yes what before and after photos of just two weeks to 4 weeks after from a frauding angle that’s what he does he uses just pictures from the angles that look good and posts those pictures after all swelling disipates nose ruined you didn’t see nothing!

First of all, we are very sorry that you were dissatisfied with your image. However, I would like to especially point out that it is absolutely not true that there was no pre-operative evaluation. The technique of the surgery and what to do was shared with you in great detail. Your eyelid examination has been performed and your surgery has been planned accordingly. Your statement "I did not want much change" has no equivalent meaning in the surgical platform. In order to correct the eyelid sulcus asymmetry, the sulcus line is made symmetrical by bilateral intervention. The appearances desired by you are required surgical intervention and all these steps are highly sophisticated surgeries needed an experienced surgeon. There is no such concept as ‘a little’ if you want to simetrical eyelids regarding both sulcus line and the white area under your iris what we called scleral show. Cantopexy is the name of surgery applied for scleral show that you had. In addition to that, as clearly seen in the post-operative photographs, the crooked nose has been successfully corrected. Anyone feel free to check before- after photos. He looks more healthier.
But i understand this 18 year old boy, handling that kind of a great change of appereance may disrupt the body image. Maybe patients may wait until their physological maturity sattles.

Before and after

damo3D
Much less nasal bone compared to before and scooped and not masculine at all. Asked to fix a crooked nose and leave the side profile straight, now it’s very concave and has no definition from the front very soft dorsal aesthetic lines and a very big change in the two procedures I got. Not one of my requests was made, was completely disregarded and not listened too
