What to typically expect when you choose this treatment.
Treatment time: Day surgery
Anaesthetic: Local
Recovery: 10-14 days
Results: Immediate
Back to Work: 1-2 weeks
Longevity: 10-15 years
Revive the youthful appearance of your eyes by removing excess skin (and sometimes) fat from the upper and / or lower eyelids, reducing puffiness, hooding and drooping.
The lower eyelid blepharoplasty can help with dark circles, although in selected patient cheek/ tear trough filler can achieve better results.
Of great interest are the new type of skin boosters such as Plinest, which stimulate own collagen production and improve the quality of skin, reducing the visible blood vessels (showing through thin skin, giving the appearance of dark circles).
A personalised consultation identifies the best approach through injectable and/or surgery to suit your needs.
“Thank you for your kindness and expert removal of the lesion from my left, lower eyelid. I can't believe the itchy, weeping, ugly thing has gone at last. I have had no pain whatsoever and no bruising either. A testimonial to your skill. I am so grateful . This has made a huge difference to my life. Thank you so much.”

My approach goes beyond surgical expertise; it’s about building a trusting, nurturing relationship with my patients, providing tailored information on potential treatments and honest, realistic expertise on results that could be achieved, and discussing the risks and benefits for your particular situation to allow you to make the best decision for yourself.
This could be having a procedure or another treatment or having nothing done, either way my aim is to empower you to decide what is best for you and makes you happy.
I am committed to guiding you through the entire process, from the initial consultation to post-operative care, which is included in the price for private patients and comes with a guarantee of being seen after the procedure and continuity if you have any issues after the treatment.
