No more droopy eyelids! I can clearly see the huge difference the surgery has made

ORIGINAL POST

No More Droopy Eyelids!

WORTH IT

I am very pleased with the results of my upper blepharoplasty with Dr Sabrina. I originally visited her to discuss non surgical skin tightening, but she was frank and straightforward and explained that to get decent results I would need to go down the surgical route. After consideration I decided to go ahead the procedure.

It felt like a huge decision, but I felt I was in very safe hands. The procedure itself only takes about an hour, and whilst a strange experience is not painful. After surgery the Perfect Eyes team check in on you regularly, monitor progress and quickly respond to any queries.

I am now just over two weeks post surgery, still a little puffy, but can clearly see the huge difference the surgery has made. A few suggestions if you are planning on having the same procedure: Definitely have someone collect you from surgery. The antibiotic ointment really blurs your vision for a while, and if like me you normally wear contact lenses your vision will be poor, I felt quite disoriented.

An airline style neck pillow was really useful for supporting my head when trying to sleep with head elevated post surgery. A ‘hangover mask’ was useful to pop in fridge/freezer to help with swelling.’ A cheap pair of prescription sunglasses bought online have been invaluable. I am now looking forward to being able use make up on my eyelids again! Thank you Dr Sabrina!

Thanks for sharing your experience and your recovery tips too!

Thank you for sharing. I’m booked in with Dr Sabrina early 2022 for upper and lower Blepharoplasty and I’m so glad I chose her. She’s been a breath of fresh air to work with this far.
