It was totally worth doing!
I had very little pain following and no complications.
It gave me a lift without people knowing exactly what had been done!
I would definitely do it again! Hopefully not for awhile. The procedure was done in Dr Kim's surgery in Beverly Hills.


I arrived at her office early morning. I was given an injection to numb my eyelids,I felt absolutely nothing during the procedure that took approximately 1hr.


I arrived by taxi as one cannot drive afterwards! I was sent home with ice packs and antibiotics for two days.


I was swollen and bruised for at least 3-4 weeks. I could apply makeup to help cover bruising after one week. It was a very easy procedure! It has given me a refreshed and more youthful appearance. I would do it again in a nano second!

Great review?
