Amy M.

This doctor literally saved me! The day before my wedding I had a traumatic accident and fractured my orbital bone, slashing my eyelid in half. He made room in his busy schedule to sew my eyelid back up and it's healing quickly. My friends all say the stitches look fantastic. Thank you Dr. Iyengar!

Before. After a solid night's sleep! No fair!

I was not loving my droopy upper eyelids that made me look like a newborn kitten in photos. My aesthetician mentioned that another client had had a great experience with Dr. Iyengar so I went for a consultation and subsequent surgery. It went very smoothly and was virtually pain-free. After about eight days, I could go out again without feeling self-conscious. The results are subtle yet stunning. I look years younger and barely wear eye makeup anymore. I'm very happy that I found Dr. Iyengar and had this surgery when I did!

Before eyelid surgery and then 8 weeks later - now 4 more weeks and even better as swelling continues to go down. Love it!!! Very natural!

And I still love my eyes every day a year and a half later!! Still looks natural and lots of lid. Thank you!

From Iyengar's office with date, hard to refute

Your reply "3 months after the fact" now moves you to a 1, I would have preferred NO reply than "some patients are disappointed when turned down, making it sound like that why I wrote the review. NOT!!!! I wrote the review because I was not told, period! I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE GASLIGHT OTHERS! if you had integrity, you would have refunded my $150, that WAS NOT conveyed at time of booking, poor staffing, NOT MY FAULT and yes then you turned me down which AGAIN I am fine with, but both of them together means REFUND to me. What about my time, travel, wait, etc??. My friend, as I said has 100% coverage for medical purposes and he knew that! Stupid reply! Doctors think they are untouchable, or Gods, trust me they are not! Very bad business~ just reading a very recent review and SEEING photos, well, they do not lie, I am glad I didn't have it!

Look at right eye this is after 2 years, he left me with a double fold skin actually in both eyes. This was to open my eyes not extra folds

Awful awful awful..... woke up during surgery and horrible result afterward. No proper post op and now to fix his job other plastic surgeons say hard to fix. I am scared for life from his careless surgery and wants worst is he left me fearful but yet I have to get a corrective surgery. It takes one bad surgery to ruin your eyes shape..... watch out.

Eyelids

I had an upper Blepharoplasty with local anesthesia done 7 weeks ago and am very happy with the results! I was born with hooded and uneven eyelids. The unevenness especially has bothered me my whole life. At 40, I've been able to fix it thanks to Dr. Iyengar. I look at my lids in the mirror every day now and smile. He was honest with the type of results I could expect for my specific eyelids and I feel that the end result looks natural. See pics (and yes I had my brows done as well between the two pics). His office manager is awesome. They were on time for all of my appointments. The recovery time was as described. I had minimal pain. Some other reviews mentioned issues with the $150 consultation fee.. It was clearly explained to me upfront that it was non-refundable but would go towards the surgery if I got the surgery. I had a good experience overall, less bruising than I expected, and I love having even eyelids now!

Before surgery

I came to Dr. Iyengar after years of searching for the right Doctor to perform my eyelid surgery. You don't want the Doctor that did your boobs to do your eyelids, right? No, what you want is an Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeon. The first impression when you arrive to his office is his incredible staff. You can tell he promotes a very comfortable work environment and everyone is very chill and friendly. Had my consultation, scheduled my surgery for 2 weeks later. The day of surgery I was a bit anxious and nervous; especially knowing I was going to be awake for the procedure. What a waste of emotion...When I got into the chair, Dr. marked up my eyes, showed me what he was going to remove and said "what music do you like?" I named a few bands and then he said "Alexis, play Pearl Jam". Honestly, the numbing was so quick, 2 hair thin needle injections on the outside of each eyelid and it was done. Your eyeball is covered and you don't see anything but most importantly, you don't feel anything! So there I was, completely relaxed, rocking out to Pearl Jam, and in 35 minutes I was done! After this numbing wore off I felt a little sore but nothing the ice pack didn't take care of. The next day I felt no pain. I never even took a Tylenol, honestly! I did every thing I was supposed to do, as instructed by his surgical nurse, and at my 6 week post operative appointment you can not even see where the surgery happened. My eyes look amazing, I'm wearing mascara again, I have regained my peripheral vision and my confidence is at an all time high. I could go on and on but the result of my surgery is OUTSTANDING!! Thank you so much Dr. Iyengar and staff. I am forever grateful for what you did for me!

Ask the Community - San Diego Eyelid Specialists

For upper blepharoplasty, do you use dissolvable stitches or non-dissolvable?

Good question! We can use either but generally prefer to remove sutures at one week. We look forward to meeting you!

From the front staff treating me like family to Dr. Gupta himself keeping it real and humorous, I felt like family and never once had anxiety. They would talk me through every process every step of the way. Dr. Gupta would greet me with a smile even on surgery day and genuinely ask how I was feeling. No one was pretentious, and everyone made me feel very comfortable. anytime I text with a question they would get back to me within 24 hours. Thank you, Erika and Dr. Gupta for changing my life.

From the very first consultation, Dr. Souza made me feel comfortable, cared for, and confident that I was in the right hands. From start to finish, he exceeded every expectation I had.

On top of that, he also does incredible Botox and fillers--natural, refreshed, and always done with precision. If you are looking for a surgeon who is talented, honest, and truly cares about his patients, Dr. Souza is the one. Highly recommend!

She took the time to explain everything clearly, answered all my questions, and made me feel completely at ease. The results were exactly what I was hoping for super natural, smooth, and refreshed-looking without that "frozen" effect. Raiza really has a great eye and a light touch. You can tell she truly cares about achieving subtle, balanced results that enhance your features rather than overdo them. Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone who's not only skilled but also kind, attentive, and detail-oriented :)

On June 21, 2025, I visited Avalon Laser to treat a few facial spider veins after seeing the…read moredoctor's work on social media and reading positive Google reviews. What I expected to be a routine cosmetic procedure unfortunately resulted in a much more difficult outcome for me (photos attached). Shortly after the treatment, leaky blisters formed, and about a week later they developed into scabs on the treated areas. When the scabs eventually came off, many areas appeared indented and concerning. During virtual follow-up consultations, I was told the healing process appeared to be normal. However, my skin continued to worsen, and I later sought care at an emergency room, where the injuries were documented as burns and I was referred for dermatologic follow-up. Avalon Laser offered additional treatment options, including a CO laser session or microneedling at their facility, and also suggested that I see a dermatologist in the Los Angeles area. I did undergo one CO laser session with Avalon Laser, but I ultimately decided not to continue treatment at the clinic because I no longer felt comfortable proceeding there. To their credit, the clinic checked in with me virtually on a regular basis and offered encouragement during the healing process. However, my recovery has been much longer and more challenging than I expected based on how my skin appeared. Since then, I have consulted with several specialists and undergone multiple treatments in an effort to improve my skin. The recovery process has been lengthy, painful, and uncertain. The clinic refunded the cost of the original treatment, which I appreciated, but it has not come close to covering the many additional medical visits, treatments, medications, and skincare products I have needed since then. The emotional impact has also been very difficult. For weeks I struggled to sleep and often cried at night. I became withdrawn and stopped seeing friends because I felt embarrassed about my appearance. What began as a simple cosmetic procedure has turned into a long and ongoing recovery. I attempted to pursue compensation through legal counsel and sent a demand letter, but I did not receive a response. I also followed up by email without success. I am sharing my personal experience so that others can be aware and carefully consider their options before undergoing treatment.
