WORTH IT
I'd never thought about having surgery but over the last 6 months I had really noticed how saggy my eyelids had become, I'd also noticed that when I got home from work I had mascara on my eyelids - this finally made my mind up to have surgery.
I had 2 consultations where everything was clearly explained to me, the process, the surgery, the aftercare.
I had chosen to have a local anaesthetic as I prefer not to stay in hospital, was I a little anxious, yes I was because its the unknown - would I have it done again under local, yes I would. I was made to feel very relaxed in theatre and was told what was happening every step of the way.
The care I have received has been excellent from start to finish.
I love my eyes, I can't believe how much brighter my face looks, how open my eyes look and I don't have mascara on my lids anymore!
Thank you to all the staff for their care - you are a credit to the hospital!

Every face is different so I suppose you never really know what you're going to get but I knew I was going to get the best from the only surgeon I would let take a scalpel to my face. As you get older your skin takes longer to heal, the bruising takes longer to fade, after 10 days all my bruising had gone and my eyes were only slightly swollen in the morning. Its only 6 weeks since I had surgery, all the swelling has gone and my scars are barely noticeable - I can only put this excellent healing down to you're amazing skills as a surgeon. Thank you for my bright eyes Mr Ross!

Looks great. Where did you have it done, it doesn’t show where you are from?
