Correcting eyelid retraction
ORIGINAL POST
I Had an Amazing Expirience
Hello. I would like to share my experience in correcting eyelid retraction. 1 year ago I had a lower blepharoplasty with canthopexy, after which my lower eyelids drooped greatly and my eyes became round. I suffered from dry eyes and the inability to completely close my eyes. At first I couldn’t understand what was wrong, but then I found out that I had eyelid retraction and to correct this condition I needed a serious operation that would lift the lower eyelid. I spent a long time studying the solution to this problem, some surgeons suggested skin transplantation or just canthoplasty, but I knew that I I need a hard palate graft because canthoplasty alone will not correct my problem. I found Dr. Ilke on the website and looked at her work, I had hope that I could fix my eyes. I wrote her on email and sent a photo of the eyes and very quickly received an answer about what kind of operation needed to be done and we agreed on the date of the operation. The day before the operation I arrived in Istanbul and the next day there was a consultation and immediately after the operation. Everything went very smoothly, I did not feel any pain, the bruises went away very quickly and on the 7th day my stitches were removed and I returned home. I am very happy that I found Dr. Ilke, she is a professional in her field and I recommend her to everyone!
