WORTH IT$4,000
Heavy hooded eyelids is a family trait. Approaching 50, my lids were beginning to droop to to the point where it affected my peripheral vision at times. Rather than continue to deal with it, I decided to research surgery.

The surgery was only about 30 minutes, done under general anesthesia. I was home the same day. No pain, except for tenderness to touch. Recovery was quick and easy and I am very happy with my results.

I am considering having this done in the next 2 weeks. Is it fairly easy to conceal the scar?
