I've been wanting to have upper & lower lid surgery for some years. I have hereditary heavy eyelids, tea troughs & also bags under my eyes. I'm constantly told I'm looking tired!
When I look in the mirror I don't look like me anymore! I'm a confident person but this has definitely knocked my confidence. I don't like having photos taken & would love to feel more like me again!
I had under eye fillers which were great to start with but then I developed very noticeable festoons which made me look worse than before!
I researched a lot of surgeons & finally came across Sabrina Shah-Desai through a recommendation from an aesthetic nurse.
Sabrina dissolved the under eye fillers & decided it was best to start with the upper eyes & wait to see how the lower lids settled.

I stayed home for a week. Luckily had my stitches out after 7 days then went out with light makeup on!

Wow! That's awesome! Did you have any bruising at all?

You have beautiful eyes and now they are even brighter and more sparkly. Congratulations on your fabulous results! I don't think you need to do anything more...

Thank you! I have quite bad under eye bags - not visible in the photos (good lighting) I'm deciding what to do next if anything for the moment!

I have the same issue and seeing what an amazing result you have I am going to book an appointment. You look so natural not like you've had anything done - exactly what I want

Thank you! My fear was looking different. My eyes are slightly less almond shaped but as the swelling diminishes I'm looking more like my old self but with eyelids! I can wear makeup properly at last! The best thing I ever did! Good luck
