I am a chiropractor and never had neck pain and stiffness until my early 40s. By 41 years of age I realized that my eyelids were getting so heavy that I had developed poor posture and anterior head carriage merely to see. If I stood upright with good straight posture my eyelids were so "hooded" that I could not see any sky or up at all, only what was below and straight in front of me. My mom had a blepharoplasty in her late 60s so I knew about the surgery. But I did not want to wait that long as the neck pain was getting significant and I did not want to develop old lady posture in my 40s!

I went to my eye doctor to ask about it and he conducted the visual field tests to confirm and have my insurance pay for it. Then I went for a consult with the local doc that did blepharoplasty surgeries in our area. He recommended it and also recommended a whole eyebrow lift. I did not feel comfortable with that severe of a recommendation and also decided that I wanted someone more specialized in plastic surgery. As specialized as I could find.

That is when I found Dr. Toft. When I learned he only works on faces that brought me great relief. When I learned about his trauma facial surgery background of 12 years, that also made me feel like I was in good hands. When I went to consult with him and he said not to do a brow lift, I knew he was right.

Since then I have been impressed at every step of my journey with him and his office. His staff is amazing. As someone who runs my own health care business, I appreciate his office even more. Jennifer gives her cell number for any questions/concerns. Chelsea is so skilled and comforting in the operating room. They had a comprehensive booklet of the procedure, risks, etc as well as typed instructions for before, during and after the surgery.

Even the day after the surgery I could see better. I am now just over two weeks out and still healing, but I cannot believe the difference already in my sight and the better posture I can hold. I already feel more upright and feel myself correcting the bad postural habits I was taking on because I can see!! It is also nice to be able to see my blue eyes again.

I am so glad I did not wait. I feel like I have a new lease on life and feel younger and more vital. I am excited to share my findings with my patients and now anyone who comes in with neck pain I look at their eyelids and if they have the tell-tale lines on their foreheads (which I developed in high school!) of their foreheads working to hold up their eyebrows to see better.

I am so grateful and could not recommend Dr. Toft and his staff more highly.
