Nervous About Results

Generous129136
I am 3 weeks post temporal brow lift and have holes/ indents in my eyebrows which don’t seem to be improving.

It’s making me very insecure and it’s very obvious I have had surgery - which is what I really didn’t want.

Currently unsure what these indent scars are from and if they will improve.

I will look to update with my experience as I try to be patient and give it more time

Do you have an update?

Hi, sorry I haven’t got around to updating, I want to take my time to write a full review soon.

However as a quick summary/ update:
The indents have gone, but it took a long time, maybe 5 months. The position of my brows however did not settle symmetrical, one side seems to now be hyper expressive/ lifts a lot more easily than the other cause one side to look raised/ surprised, and I have to try fix it with Botox. Actually going back for a top up next week to try again.
I feel like I was perhaps experimented on with tight threads additionally to the temp lift which caused the indents.

As for my whole experience, I would like to advise anyone going alone to this practice to go somewhere else. The aftercare and support is non existent. (I had to dress myself, walk myself out of the surgery room and hospital alone. I was stood in a busy public hospital reception with blood matted hair, bandaged face, drugged up with pain killers, trying to find an Uber myself to get back to my Airbnb.) one example of how my experience was traumatising.

Anyone looking to go alone for surgery should definitely go with someone who offers hotel stay and nurse visits as a package included for the recovery. Ali Riza should provide this as an option or at least show a duty of care to advise against attending the surgery alone.
