Blepharoplasty Testimonials

I have known Dr Raskin for several years. I had the pleasure of seeing her about 15 years ago originally and subsequently referred a family member to her for several injectable appointments and a blepharoplasty. She created an amazing outcome and truly has an eye for perfection and strives for it with each patient. I reached out to her for a consultation for myself after many years of contemplation and about 4 surgical consultation with other surgeons in NYC and NJ. I was seen in the office within 1 week of my call and likely could have been seen even soon had my schedule permitted. The office staff was friendly and accommodating. I was greeted by Dr. Raskin with a warm and genuine friendly welcome. She took measurements and offered several options based off of desired results that I provided to her that were photos found online. As a professional in the surgical field, I can confidently say that my experience in the surgical center was extraordinary. I felt tended to as if I were the only patient having surgery that day. The nurses in the pre op and recovery room as well as OR staff and anesthesiologist were amazing. I walked out of the hospital about 2 hours after my surgery feeling great. Now, 2 month out of surgery, I will say that this is one of the best decisions I have made in my adult life and a majority of that statement is owed to the expertise, and artistry of Dr Raskin. I am thrilled with the result, the shape, symmetry and overall care that I have received and would recommend anyone to see her in consultation, she is a true gem.

When I went for my consultation, I asked Dr Raskin about the extra skin on my eyelids. I was suffering from corneal abrasions and I wasn’t happy about the prospect of laser surgery. I was convinced that without the extra fat on my lids, the abrasions would heal. Dr. Raskin did such a great job on my eyelids that my Cornea specialist couldn’t even tell I had the operation. Not only did my corneal abrasions heal, but now I look too. It gave me the incentive to stick to a diet and finally lose weight. I am thankful and grateful to Dr. Elsa Raskin. The healing process for all of us was fast, easy and scare free.

Dr. Raskin is one of the best doctors I know. She is very patient and understanding when it comes to her patients’ needs. Although I knew I was going to proceed with my blepharoplasty, I had a ton of questions regarding my recovery and the procedure itself. Thankfully Dr. Raskin took the time to communicate with me and was so patient and understanding throughout all of my questions. Not one time did Dr. Raskin make me feel as if I was rushed into the procedure nor did she push me to consider procedures that I didn’t need or want. After my surgery was complete, that’s when I knew Dr. Raskin truly is a compassionate person. She made sure to call me the next day (which was a Saturday) to make sure I was doing OK. She offered to come into the office if I had any concerns over the weekend. She answered any question or concern without hesitation. With all the care she provided, she also managed to do a wonderful job! I am so pleased with my results and even more pleased that there was minimal bruising, swelling, and pain! I was back to work in no time! I would love for Dr. Raskin to work on me again in the future and I would definitely recommend her to anyone of my friends or family members. Her prices were very reasonable and my experience was worth every penny!

Dr. Raskin is a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and Ophthalmologist who came highly recommended by my Optometrist. Making my first appointment was easy, her staff is friendly, and the office atmosphere is relaxing. Dr. Raskin was very informative while carefully listening to my concerns. With confidence, I moved forward on having eyelid surgery. The results are so natural, and now at age 54 my eyes are beautifully refined. I am thrilled! Since she did such fantastic work on my eyes, I now see Dr. Raskin for facial and lip filler, which she does to perfection! Her professional fees are very reasonable, and the cost for fillers are the same as most skin care clinics. But, the difference with Dr. Raskin is that you are in the hands of an expert surgeon and a gifted artist. I recommend Dr. Raskin to everyone considering an uplift to their looks.

I chose Dr. Elsa Raskin to perform reconstructive eye surgery after a failed procedure by another surgeon left me with little hope and few viable options. She came highly recommended by a close friend and I knew I had made the right choice the first time we met. I was amazed with her attention to detail and her concerns for my physical and mental health, before and after the surgery. The experience far surpassed my expectations and the results of the surgery were nothing less than miraculous. I would strongly recommend Dr. Elsa Raskin to my family and friends because of her commitment to her patients and the outstanding work she has done for me. I am so grateful that I found her.

Dr. Raskin was the doctor I went to for a “second opinion”. I had decided to use another plastic surgeon already. When I met her, I changed my mind immediately and decided I would use her instead. From making my first appointment to my last visit, everyone was so professional, yet personal. I was treated as if was the only patient they had. Dr Raskin had such a calm way of presenting things to me and told me exactly what to expect with the procedure and what results I should expect to have. She also explained what things about my appearance would not change and why. Following my procedure she personally followed up with me several times during my recovery. My procedure turned out better than I had expected. I would highly recommend Dr Raskin for the procedure I had and I am sure her expertise also carries over to other procedures she performs.
