Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

Some before photos
Hi all. Some people have asked for some before photos so here they are. Be kind lol.
Update
This is at one month.
Surgery review and photos.
It has been 3 weeks today since my surgery. I saw the surgeon this morning and he is pleased with the results this far.
Day of surgery:
Not nervous at all. And I am usually a nervous person. My husband drove me downtown and we arrived at 2 pm for 2:30 surgery. He paid and the nurse took me to the surgery suite. Changed into a gown and then climbed up into what looked like a dentist chair. He gave me a bunch of local needles which didn't hurt. So gentle.
It took an hour and a half and he talked his way through it. It felt like 5 minutes. The local was starting to wear off when he was stitching me up so he added a bit more.
Went home and started the cold compresses the entire time I was awake. I slept sitting up propped by pillows and used an airline neck pillow so I wouldn't turn on my side.
I was in no pain at all but looked pretty beat up.
I had a bit of an issue with my left eye being irritated. That lasted a good 2 weeks. That is why I am only posting now. I was using an antibiotic cream in my eyes so I couldn't see. I was so bored I was going out of my mind. I wasn't supposed to watch tv for a few days so I just sat on the couch with my head back and listed to some talk shows on TV.
I went the next day after surgery for him to take a look and he said moderate swelling. I didn't have one bruise. That's because he uses laser surgery.
He took the stitches out the following Monday. Didn't hurt at all just felt a little odd. Still using the cream and now on prednisone because my left bottom eyelid started to droop and there was swelling. That cleared up in about 4 days and then he weaned me off the prednisone.
When he saw me this morning, he told me to get some Vitamin E oil and start massaging the stitch/laser line. I can now start wearing makeup so I am happy about that. I will try it out in the morning.
It is still improving every day so I will post more photos as it improves. Everyone at work who knows loves the results and is pleased for me.
Happy to respond to any questions!
