So pleased with the results . I would definitively recommend Dr. Iyengar for any eyelid plastic surgery

Dr. Iyengar, and his staff are knowledgeable and friendly. The doctor is very efficient. The surgery center is also efficient and has competent staff. I had an upper and lower blepharoplasty. My goals for the procedures were to improve the function of my eyelids and eyelashes as well as expand my visual field. I had a subtle but definite improvement in appearance, with a remarkable improvement in function and I got more of an an improvement in visual field than I thought I would get. I’m very happy that I had this done.

My husband could not be happier with the outcome of his procedure. Fabulous Doctor and staff from start to finish. So glad we choose this doctor as he is the best in the county. Very professional and caring, answered all our questions and put us at ease. When we had a concern after surgery his staff got right back to us. Hard to find this type of service anymore!

Amazing Oculoplastic surgeon. Removed a couple of new lesions on my eyelid right on the spot! Healed perfectly without a trace. Highly recommend!

I went to Dr. Iyengar to remove a small growth on my upper lid lash line after both my dermatologist and optometrist said they did not feel comfortable removing it. My optometrist referred me to Dr. Iyengar “for all things eyelids”. That initial appointment ended with a discussion about my eye bags and an outpatient surgical procedure called lower blepharoplasty with fat repositioning. This procedure removes the excess skin under your lower eyelid but instead of removing the fat pads, they are repositioned beneath the lower lid so that it provides a seamless transition between your lower eyelid and upper check bone (no hollow eye look caused from removing rather than repositioning the fat). When the fat is repositioned it also naturally fills the tear trough line so both the line and bag go away. I had always planned on aging naturally, but my eyebags were so prominent that eventually I stopped wearing eye makeup. Why would I want to bring any attention to that area? I know my self-esteem shouldn’t be driven by my appearance, but I no longer liked the way I looked, and it was having an impact on how I felt. I made an appointment for a surgery consultation after I had thought about it and had time to research the procedure, complications, and risks. Dr. Iyengar answered all my questions and his nurse, who had the procedure done, gave me her perspective from both the patient and medical side. They both made me feel very comfortable and confident that I had picked the right surgeon. The procedure was painless and after about two weeks I was comfortable going out without feeling like everyone could tell I had surgery. The biggest complaint was nausea from the anesthesia which lasted about two days and the boredom that comes from letting your eyes rest for a few days. I am almost 5-months post-op and the results are fantastic! My only regret is not doing it sooner. Eye bags are gone, tear trough is almost non-existent, and an unexpected bonus is I have less wrinkles around my eyes because of the excess skin removal. I am happy to look in the mirror again and recognize the person staring back at me. My friends say I look 15 years younger. I am no longer told I look tired. Dr. Iyengar is a brilliant surgeon, and a compassionate person with a good sense of humor. Kristina, his medical assistant, was patient and diligent in answering my pre-op and post-op questions, even when their office was closed for the holidays! His office staff are on top of their game. He has my full confidence. Highly recommend him!

I truly cannot express enough how grateful I am to the entire staff at San Diego Eyelid Specialist. Dr. Iyengar did a phenomenal job on my eyelids and I could not be happier with the results. I wish I would have done it years ago because I now feel and look younger! Not only were all my expectations met, but they were exceeded. The front desk receptionist, Katie, is an absolute sweetheart and went above and beyond for me. I'm so grateful for her friendliness, compassion and professionalism! Kristina, who assisted Dr. Iyenger throughout my procedure was a special added bonus too! She made any nerves I may have had disappear with her calming voice while describing what would take place from start to finish. In fact, Dr. Iyengar, Kristina and I had great conversations throughout the procedure and I was comfortable from the get go thanks to them Thank you for taking my music request, too! San Diego Eyelid Specialist is top notch. I feel so fortunate to have been under the care of the entire team and beyond thrilled with my results. I highly recommend!!!! Thank you Everyone!

Fabulous experience from start to finish. Great results, no pain, no bruising. Pleasant and welcoming staff. Results are SO much bette with an oculoplastic surgeon than with a plastic surgeon. I highly recommend Dr. Iyengar!

Dr. Iyengar and his entire staff work with the same, high level patient-centric focus. My consult visit was quick and to the point not to be confused with rushed. Dr. Iyengar is confident and the best at what he's does. The morning of my procedure was seamless, starting off with Kristina walking me through the entire process and what to expect, answering any of my questions or concerns. During the procedure, Dr. Iyengar was chatty to help settle my nerves while Kristina was my backup support. The entire procedure took about 30 mins. Post-op, I had direct access to Kristina with any questions or concerns and she was quick to respond. I experienced zero pain and healed quickly. Now six weeks post-op and my outcomes are fantastic! My eyes look wide open and less tired while my makeup goes on so much easier. I highly recommend Dr. Iyengar and his entire team, it's worth the wait.
