The researchers sent two satisfaction surveys to the participants. A total of 41% responded to the FACE-Q Satisfaction With Eyes survey, and 42% responded to the FACE-Q Satisfaction With Decision survey.

Depending on the question, 70%-85% of the respondents to the Satisfaction With Eyes survey said they were “definitely” or “somewhat” satisfied with the treatment outcome.

The highest levels of dissatisfaction came in response to a questions about whether the subjects felt their eyes looked alert (not tired) or youthful. The highest levels of satisfaction were in response to questions about whether the subjects were happy with the shape, attractiveness, and openness of their eyes.

Depending on the question, 73%-85% of the subjects who took the Satisfaction With Decision survey reported that they “definitely” or “somewhat” agree with positive statements about the treatment. While differences were small, they agreed the most with a statement saying the procedure was “worth the time and effort.”

No external funding or remuneration was received. The study authors reported no relevant disclosures.
