The Patient's Goals
“You look tired” had become this 45-year-old UK patient’s least favourite sentence — usually offered kindly, always inaccurate. Two separate changes were conspiring to produce it: skin hooding over her upper lids, and shallow puffiness beneath the lower ones. Either alone reads as a long week; together they read as a settled state of affairs.
Her eyelid surgery before and after addresses both halves of that false signal at once.
Surgeon's Expert Approach
Her blepharoplasty combined an upper and lower procedure in one session:
- Upper lids: the excess fold of skin removed along the natural lid crease, re-exposing the lid platform that hooding had buried — the incision heals hidden within the crease itself.
- Lower lids: the small fat pockets creating under-eye fullness repositioned and smoothed, softening the shadow that photographs exaggerated.
- Expression preserved: conservative tissue handling throughout, so her eyes changed in energy, not in identity.
What the after photos show: the same eyes, minus the fatigue — open, rested, and entirely hers. Initial healing settled over about twelve days.
She planned the trip remotely from the UK, with photographic assessment first via our contact page.

I am beyond grateful I went with AKM Clinic for my deep plane face and neck lift, upper eyelid, and co2 laser. Dr. Akif has magic hands and my results are truly incredible! I came from the US and assistant Emine was the best in assuring every detail was coordinated and communicated with me beyond my expectations every step of the way. 10 out of 10 to the entire team! I couldn’t be more pleased!
