Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. Mehryar (Ray) Taban

Sourced directly from Dr. Mehryar (Ray) Taban's social posts and replies.

How does Dr. Taban address upper eyelid asymmetry?
Dr. Taban performs upper blepharoplasty to correct congenital or acquired upper eyelid asymmetry, which can manifest as one eyelid being more hooded than the other. The surgical goal is to achieve improved symmetry by removing excess skin, and in some cases, upper blepharoplasty can also camouflage a lower eyebrow position. A thorough evaluation is necessary to determine the cause and appropriate treatment for individual cases of eye asymmetry.

What is scarless lower blepharoplasty and what does it treat?
Scarless lower blepharoplasty is a technique Dr. Taban performs to address under eye fat bags, dark circles, and tired eye appearance, resulting in smoother, more refreshed under eyes.
Source →

Dr. Taban performs customized Asian upper blepharoplasty, also known as double eyelid surgery, which involves crease formation to achieve natural double eyelid results and improve eye asymmetry.

How does Dr. Taban treat droopy upper eyelids (ptosis) and upper eyelid hollowness?

What is Dr. Taban's approach to Customized Male Upper Blepharoplasty?

This procedure involves removing excess upper lid skin with the goal of creating a more refreshed and youthful eye appearance while ensuring the results remain masculine and natural, with long-lasting outcomes.
Source →
What techniques does Dr. Taban use for Lower Blepharoplasty?
For lower blepharoplasty, Dr. Taban addresses puffy under eye fat bags and loose skin, which can contribute to a tired appearance, often seen after life events like having children (a 'mommymakeover' for the eyes). His technique involves repositioning eye fat bags to the hollow tear trough area and may include skin pinch removal, aiming for a more rested, refreshed eye appearance with natural and long-lasting results.
Source →
What are the benefits of combined male upper and lower blepharoplasty?
For men with tired or older appearing eyes, Dr. Taban performs combined lower and male upper blepharoplasty to achieve a more refreshed eye appearance with natural results. A key focus is ensuring the patient still looks like himself and maintains a masculine aesthetic post-procedure. During consultation, potential future treatments like a brow lift may also be discussed.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Total received (2024)

$282

Payments

3

Compared to peers

Small

Dr. Mehryar (Ray) Taban received $282 across 3 payments in 2024. That is in the lower half for physicians here — totals this size are typically meals at sponsored talks. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”
