6 weeks post and 8 weeks

These are before and after from my surgeon - it's very subtle and now looks so much fresher. The last few are 8 weeks and it seems to keep settling nicely. Apart from the ups and downs in the recovery phase I highly recommend this procedure I'm now very happy and thankful for my result.

Here, in this before surgery you can see I didn't have a great lid cheek transition - my surgeon fixed this as well as bags.

Journey

Not sure I mentioned I am 47 and still expect imperfections and wrinkles but overall I feel so much fresher. However, this experience -for me - was an extreme emotional roller coaster. During my healing process and especially when I felt so scared that I would never look like me again only then you realise how lucky you were in the first place. I think surgery is a powerful tool but I think the healing times and emotional process, by me, was underestimated. I'm still healing and will post once the results have finally settled. This site has been a valuable source of information for me and I hope this review can help someone during the "panic" times!

Dr Nettle is extremely professional and quite patient as I am sure I tested this! There where moments of frustration for me and I'm sure my surgeon due to my indecision (my prerogative as its my face) but I would not have gone anywhere else - I wanted the best and I believe I got it. I must say Dr Nettle was still accommodating of me even though I changed direction even when he was marking my face up. He also offered me an extra procedure when he marked up my face and he noticed an area where he could improve. The girls especially Cherieve were wonderful in my freak out moments - thank you.
