I’m thinking of blepharoplasty.

[Souredgrapes]

Is anyone who has had this surgery happy to post their before and after pictures . My own problem is to me my eyes look deep set and I feel my eye balls pop out . I have had a consultation today and I could have surgery to make them look less deep set . I have very few assets ( flat chest , poorly defined waist , broad back ) that make me feel feminine so this little bit of surgery would likely do my self esteem a bit of good if it goes the way I hope .

To minimise time off work that adds to the cost of having elective surgery I would like to have the surgery over Xmas ( I’m self employed ) but I’m not feeling very supported by the family. Tell me it’s worth it .

I thought you meant somewhere that offered upper eyelid filler. The one you recommended doesn’t seem to.

Maybe not but they offer a lot of other treatments including eyelid lifts using Ultherapy, Thermage, microneedling etc.

You look amazing. Would you share the name of your surgeon? Thanks!

I honestly don't think laser treatments do much. As for microneedling, there was a thread on here a while ago where multiple women said they had been left with very bad scarring. The dots never went away. It was a very sad read.

I'd love sunken eyes, mine are just heavy, in my limited experience you don't look like your be a good candidate as you have nothing to remove, you have lovely eyes.

I think I prefer your eyes now tbh, perfect for applying eyeshadow.

@RhootintootinbooI went to Margaret Strick and would recommend her. https://www.nuffieldhealth.com/consultants/ms-margaret-strick

I had mine done in 2024 -best thing I ever did

I had it at Signature Clinic under local. It was fine, eyelids heal quickly due to the type of skin. I'm really glad I had it as I could feel my eyelid skin sometimes due to the folds. It looks more like 'me' now too. I did get two black eyes underneath after a few days which is normal. Otherwise it was fine.

Finding a surgeon who truly gets the aesthetics of deep-set eyes is key. Many people look at specialists in places like Turkey or Mexico who do hundreds of these procedures with great results. If you want to chat about finding a specialist clinic or the costs involved, feel free to PM me.

A friend had it done recently; she just looks a bit fresher, more awake. She certainly feels more confident in herself.
Do it!!

Hi there, i,m 60, had it done age 45, clinic in Bradford, cost around £3000, small injection in either side eye, surgeon fab, all they do is mark a line then cut out the excess skin, didnt feel a thing, we chatted throughout, can,t imagine i was on the table 15 mins, a few stitches, then hubby and i went off to a hotel for the night,room service and a good nights sleep. Tis really no big deal, so, GO GO GO Girl and have it done.. ( now 15 years on and prob needs doing again BUT have had a rough sleepless last 2 years looking after alzh.dad ) Good luck sweety xxxxx

It's fairly straightforward, recovery is pretty smooth and it's cheaper than a lot of other procedures! HOWEVER I always advise caution with blepheroplasty - yes, it trims the eyelid skin, but it doesn't bring the eyebrow up. One reason for sagging eyelid skin is due to the eyebrow slowly dropping as we age. Which is why some people look a bit sad and hollow eyed after a bleph alone, and don't get the femininity back they were expecting. If money is no object, I'd get a brow lift + bleph.

I was going to say the same - I’m northern so haven’t seen dr. Joshua yet but he seems very straightforward which I like. Have you seen him yourself?

Yes I have, he’s straightforward and honest in a gentle way. He will refuse treatment if he doesn’t think it’s the right choice or if he feels you’re not ready.

I totally agree that the OP has beautiful eyes but I’m interested by your description. What makes them pre raphaelite? Lovely description 😊

I had mine done because the excess skin was affecting my vision, particularly on one side. I also had fat bulging into the socket (ugh!) Very pleased with the results although recovery was rough for me.

It is, in fact, such a great procedure that I understand all the raving and recommendations on this thread, but honestly OP of the lovely eyes(!) you don’t have the standard issues that upper bleph is designed to fix.

I hope you can find a surgeon who will do what is actually needed and is appropriate for you.

I’m also considering this. Lots of people suggesting Signature Clinic on line. Have a look on TikTok, lots of people going to Amsterdam to have it done cheaper.

Not sure these before and after are very helpful as whilst they look great, your eyes don't look small or sunken, they are a lovely shape. Do you mind if I ask how old you are?

I’m 55 .

Please think carefully before using Signature Clinic
