Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Lower lid eye bag removal procedure
I recently had under eye bag removal performed by Dr.John Lee! I am so fortunate to have found him in my search for the perfect doctor! Someone extremely experienced in the ocular region of the face that had a passion for his artistry , ultimately making his patients unbelievably happy with their results! I speak from personal experience! I am so elated with my results and can’t thank Dr. Lee and his staff enough for their knowledge, expertise and kindness during this process! It was a painless process and a very easy recovery as well! It took 20 years off of me and gave me the confidence that I’ve been missing for years due to something genetic in my case! Dr.Lee was very involved in the entire process from consults through the entirety of the recovery process! I highly recommend Dr.John Lee and his staff! My only regret is not doing this 15 years ago! Sincerely , Alisha

Caring, excellent, and Honest
John Lee, MD is by far the best ophthalmologic surgeon in the area, if not country. He’s kind, patient, and honest. From the consultation through post-op, he keeps the expectations real and honest. He doesn’t try to give you a service that is not needed. He wants the results to be natural and flattering. I made the best decision with having Dr Lee do my upper bleph surgery! the results are night and day!

Lower Lid Artist!
Dr. Lee did an amazing job on my lower lid surgery. Downtime from the procedure was about 10 days and the results are a fresh, younger looking face. Everyone in the office was wonderful from his receptionist to his clinical staff. They are an efficiently run practice and I never had to wait to see him.

I had blepharoplasty and am very happy with the results. I initially sought out Dr Lee because of his vast experience with Asian eye structure. During my consult, Dr Lee took his time and carefully explained what I could realistically expect from surgery, based on my orbital structure, as well as what post-op and recovery would be like. Follow-up appointments at 10 days/1 month/2 months to examine my healing were a very reassuring part of the process. His staff is wonderfully supportive as well.

Dr Lee takes his time, is very precise and thorough. I went to another provider previously for wrinkles who paled in comparison to Dr Lee. He is a master injector and I drive sixty plus miles to his office for his expertise.

Dr. Lee and his staff were absolutely wonderful throughout the process of my lower blepharoplasty. After researching several plastic surgeons in the Philadelphia area, I felt very comfortable booking a consultation with Dr. Lee. His experience and knowledge of plastic surgery around the eyes made me instantly feel at ease. He was thorough, explained the procedure in great detail, and made sure to answer any questions I had during my consultation. The day of the my surgery he and his staff were patient and created a calm environment to ease my anxiety. Throughout my recovery they stayed in touch to monitor my progress and I always felt like a priority with them. I'm so incredibly happy with the results from my procedure and would highly recommend Dr. Lee and his office!

Had my upper and lower lids done and results are so natural that anyone who has not seen me for awhile can't figure out what I had done and just stares are me wondering. I wanted someone who specialized in eyelids not facelifts or noses. I also had cheek and lip fillers- loved it! Again, very natural but gave me the lift and plumpness I needed to look refreshed- better version of me. Been to several other plastic surgeons and derm drs and Dr. Lee is by far the most detailed and meticulous at performing injections. No bruising and no pain- that is Dr. Lee's trademark and why I travel over 2 hrs each way from Northern NJ(close to NYC) past 3 years.

Dr. Lee performed surgery on me in his office suite (lower eye bags) and I am EXTREMELY happy with the results, and it was around 3-4 years ago; still looking great! Dr. Lee's expertise with injectables is AMAZING. NO bruising; virtually painless. He always takes his time and he has a gift for making me (and all his patients) look younger and more rested. I would never go to anyone else!

Dr. Lee is a meticulous physician. He is intentional about assessing the patient's needs and provides appropriate support and information during discussions. I drive over 2 hours to see him when I need services - why? Trust. I am a health care professional and have very high standards - Dr. Lee more than meets them.

I chose Dr. Lee because he specializes in oculoplastics and I like that his training specializes in plastic surgery of the eyes. I've been seeing Dr. Lee for over 3 years now for Botox injections around my eyes. He is the 4th doctor for Botox injections that I've been to and I will never see anyone else but him. Having other doctors to compare to, I believe that I receive the best result from Dr. Lee. I love the precision with which he injects the Botox and I never have a paralyzed feeling.
