“I’ve always hated the deep circles under my eyes. They sank down into my cheeks creating lines that made me appear mean or just droopy.
I consulted with other Drs. that didn’t understand my concern. I can live with the pigmentation just not the indentation. Today I went to LaserTouch SoHo hoping for a miracle with a facial filler. Actually, I was willing to settle for just a slight improvement.
It’s located on the second floor above the Tretorn store. The space is clean and quite tasteful. I was greeted politely and everyone was quite friendly. The waiting area is tastefully arranged and avoids the trap of over advertising that most places embrace.
Even though I was early, I saw Dr. Yafa [Vafa] right away. He is quite pleasant and friendly. During our consultation he took the time to understand my true concern. I was not looking to eliminate dark circles (it’s impossible) just the depression that ran from my lower eye to cheekbones. He recommended juvaderm to fill the area and explained how the injections would feel based on the anatomy and the technique he would use to fill the area.
After a topical cream, he started with the filler. Now, it hurts but lets be honest.. it’s a needle to the face. It’s supposed to hurt. Dr. Yafa [Vafa] worked quickly and thoughtful to minimize the discomfort and showed me the progress along the way. It was liberating to see the lines I hate so viciously plump up and go away.
The whole process took about 20 minutes and I left with very, very minimal bruising. Considering how sensitive the eye area can be I was impressed.
Upon checking out, once again the staff was pleasant and friendly. I would certainly recommend the Dr. and this location to my friends and family. I had a great experience.
I suppose I should add that the prices are quite reasonable.”
