"Dr. Rajjoub perform corrective surgery on my eyelids and eyebrows due to obscured vision caused by my eyelids sagging into my field of vision. Prior to seeing Dr. Rajjoub, I had a consultation with another plastic surgeon to address the corrective surgery and after the visit I was left with a lack of confidence related to the procedure, approach and results. He made it sound complex with iffy results.

When I went for a consultation with Dr. Rajjoub, she explained her approach to correcting my sagging eyelids that was different than the first consultation, more straight forward (as I had imagined). I was presented all of the pros and cons, of the corrective surgery and she did a great job of explaining the procedure in detail and managing my expectations. In addition, we discussed the options for improving the appearance of scar tissue below each eye. She said that she wold look into alternative (non-surgical) methods being tested to correct the appearance of the scare tissue and get back to me prior to my surgery date. She did get back to me and took the time to explain the progress being made on the non-surgical approach to improving the appearance of scare tissue and why she thought it wasn't a good fit for my situation. When I asked about correcting my eyelids and scare tissue at the same time, she said that the eyelid surgery can cause swelling where the scare tissue is which can have an adverse effect on the stitches correcting the scare tissue. Based on Dr. Rajjoub's advice, I went ahead with the corrective surgery on my eyelids. The one request that I made was that I didn't want my eyebrows and eyelids to look stretched. I wanted them to look natural.

The corrective lid and brow surgery looks GREAT! You cannot tell (other than knowing what I looked like before surgery) that I had work done on my eyes. There was swelling below the eyes that would have had a negative effect on the stitched to correct scare tissue. My follow up appointment is in February and at that time I will schedule surgery the correct the scare tissue below both eyes.

Thank you Dr. Rajjoub!
