I would encourage anyone thinking of doing this to go for it - you won't regret it

I was very anxious about the surgery and recovery but I didn't need to worry. My experience was fantastic and I'm thrilled with the results - I wish I'd done this 20 years ago! I had worried for years about the surgery requiring a general anaesthetic and weeks of wearing a bandage but that isn't necessary.

The surgery was done under a local anaesthetic so I was awake throughout and Mr Sabbagh and his team made me feel very comfortable - I didn't feel a thing. As for the bandage, I wore it for a day and then took it off and simply wore a headband at night to protect my ears whilst I slept. I would encourage anyone thinking of doing this to go for it - you won't regret it.
