WORTH IT
I had eyelid surgery and I look great, and I can actually see better! Dr.B is a great surgeon. He is a wonderful doctor , he explained everything to me before the surgery, but I had no idea that I was actually going to feel better! The eyelid surgery has exceeded all of my expectations! I HIGHLY recommend Dr.Baharestani. The surgical coordinator Jen also played a big part in my wonderful care. From the beginning to the aftercare. This was a surgery that I felt was private for me, but I'm so happy with the experience, I must share with anyone thinking of doing it. I feel as though I had a disability before that I was not even aware of due to the sagging lids, there was a shadow over my eyes. The world is brighter now!

Welcome to the community and thanks so much for offering your opinion of your doctor.

It would be great if you could give us a little more detail about your experience, like why you had the surgery, your tips for getting good results, pros/cons, and info on the recovery process.

Our community members especially love seeing photos from before, during, and after — a realistic look at what they can expect. Photos grab the attention of the community and encourage more support for you.

As a community manager, I get requests all the time from other members who want me to to keep encouraging people to share their experiences, which are so helpful for others considering these procedures. So please accept this as a well-intentioned request from thousands.

I too had a blepharoplasty several years ago. My eyelids were sitting on my eyelashes too. No cream in the world could fix it. I didn't even realize how bad it was until I saw a recent photo of myself and wondered, what is wrong with my eyes? I was also unemployed, actively searching for work, and thought it might help me if I looked more refreshed rather than mad, ha. I too documented my experience here on Real Self. I'm still SO glad I had it done.
