Upper Blepharoplasty

ORIGINAL POST

Upper Blepharoplasty

Picko76
WORTH IT
I was an extremely nervous patient!!I am 41yrs old and over the last yr my eyelids had started to sit on my eyelashes. Its a family trait, I have never been able to use eyeshadow or eyeliner but it was getting to the point where it was difficult to put mascara on and eventually would have started to obscure my vision. I wanted/needed an upper blepharoplasty. I did not want to use a general anaesthetic unnecessarily either. I found it difficult to find someone that did this procedure with just a local. I eventually found Dr David Topchian. From the first phone call, to the consultation, to the procedure I voild not have been happier with the service received from all of the staff from receptionists,nurse and Doctor. Any and all questions were answered fully and I was really made to feel confident and at ease with my decision. It has only been 4 days since the procedure and I will continue to add photos as the healing progresses.

Looks amazing! Was it covered by your health benefits or did you have to pay?

I had to pay as the only healthcare rebate available was if I had had it done in hospital conditions under a general anaesthetic. The rebate woild have been only $600 from a total cost of $14,500! I paid $4,155 and had it done with a local instead. Less dangerous as general anaesthetics can affect ur breathing and many other things. I get the stitches out today and will post more photos. I was unbelievably nervous about the whole thing but have to say I could not be more pleased with how everything has gone and the swelling hasnt completely gone yet. Cannot wait to see the final result. I'm so glad I took the plunge!
