in the last weekI had lacrimal gland repair with upper blepharoplasty by Dr. Abboud over a month ago and I am beyond happy with the results so far. Dr. Abboud is very talented with extensive training and knowledge, he and the staff treated me very well and answered all my questions. I highly recommend Dr. Abboud.

3 months agoBest way I have invested in myself because of Dr. Abboud and his team's ability to provide outcomes beyond my expectations. Dr. Abboud has performed an eyelid crease and removed the bags under my eyes. Yes, these are layman terms for upper and lower Blepharoplasty surgery. My results are amazing. It has been 3 months since my surgery. My crease makes me look more engaged rather than angry. I also appear less tired without the bags. The scars are so expertly placed by Dr. Abboud that they appear to be natural wrinkles. After the first week, people could not tell that I have had my eyes modified. They commented on me being more youthful and "bright eyed." If you are like me and want your face to reflect your enthusiasm and vibrance that you have in your life, then go to Dr. Abboud instead of getting a sports car. My background: I am a 54 year old Asian male who has spent too much time in the sun surfing. This sun damage coupled with sagging upper eyelids has made my appearance angry and tired. I chose to do this surgery because I was frustrated with "showing up" different than how I felt about life. Why I chose Dr. Abboud: His team have excelled at making me feel that I am investing in myself rather than a patient spending money. I have had two different consultations prior to Dr. Abboud. Both doctors never provided me with photos of their work (aka prior patients), along with explaining the process to me. Their response made me second guess what my outcome could be as a standard template or customized to my face. Dr. Abboud walked me through the process and how he would approach the procedure. His comment that he wanted to maintain my ethnic look resonated with me that he saw me as an individual. I knew that he was going to take the time to study my face and give me the best outcome based on my request to lift my upper eyelids for a more youthful appearance, along with looking less tired due to the bags under my eyes. His Team: Dr. Abboud's success is due to his talent and his team's ability to support me through this process. From setting up the consultations, walking me through the billing, discussing my expectations, pre and post surgery actions, and actual time in the operating room, I have never felt more secure and protected. For example, I woke up laughing and making odd references about a pink elephant. Still can't figure out where this came from my memories. If you are like me prior to my surgery when I would see myself and wonder how my eyes don't support how I feel about myself, then I recommend investing in yourself and having Dr. Abboud transform you into the person who you want to see in the mirror.

a year agoI'm a 54 year old black female. My genetics are hooded eyes and small bags. In addition, my eyes weren't quite symmetrical. Dr. Abboud performed bilateral upper and lower eyelid blepharoplasty with bilateral lateral canthoplasty. I simply wanted to not look tired anymore...when I wasn't tired. Dr. Abboud did AMAZING work! Love my new eyes!! He was very informative and set realistic expectations. In addition, his staff is AMAZING! I was so nervous about the surgery and now I'm so happy that I did it. If you're thinking about it, Dr. Abboud is the Dr. to trust with your surgery!!!
