Patient and time to explain, Found the surgery painless and quick

My eyelids had become very droopy, pushing down on my lashes. I just wanted a very subtle lift, nothing drastic. I've always had a fold and wanted that to remain, just not the droop. I was very repetitive and clear. The AI modeling that was done at consultation turned out to be filters, there was no ability to then tailor to the person, and I don't look like that anyway so perhaps I'm missing the point. I'm now almost 7 weeks out and my deepest fear has come true. There is almost no fold left to speak of, the scars are so high that they're very visible. My lids are now extremely prominent with minimal skin folding over. I can fully close my eyes, so functionally everything works at least. But aesthetically this was my worst-case outcome and the reason I waited so long to have the surgery in the first place. I've since met with a top eyelid reconstruction surgeon in the US (granted, at 4 weeks and he did say at that point there was still swelling). But even then, he said my scars were "crazy high", and looking at 'before' photos, that the amount removed was "aggressive". I don't look like myself, and in several months will need to undergo expensive reconstruction surgery. I have refused to engage with this surgeon anymore though he keeps asking me to come in, as he repeatedly tells me he didn't take off much (I can look in the mirror and see every day that's not true), and I see no point as I do not trust him. The scars aren't 'hidden in the crease', they're way above them and very visible even with the tons of concealer and fake glasses I now wear. The entire shape of my eyes has now changed, it isn't a subtle removal. I think it's clear that I'm extremely upset with this entire experience.

Jay was great with my daughter and explained everything really well for me. I left feeling confident I’d understood her situation and she was excited to come again in 6 months.

Superb knowledge and experience. Produces calmness with an anxious patient

Mr. Kasmiya was always courteous, kind and always put me at my ease. I consider myself very fortunate to have found him and to have him carry out my surgery.

I found Mr El Housseini very knowledgeable and he investigated my condition thoroughly. He was reassuring and empathetic when I expressed my fear that I would lose my sight. He referred me to an appropriate specialist at Moorfields eye hospital when my condition deteriorated

Completely satisfied

Dr Murphy is a highly skilled surgeon with a sympathetic bedside manner. She is realistic and will only treat you if she can help unlike many other "top" surgeons I have met.
