Dr Priti Udhay, oculoplastic and facial aesthetic surgeon

There is no limit to precision. Around the eye it is measured in millimetres, the difference between looking rested and looking altered. For over 21 years my work has been concentrated only there, on the eyes and the face.

Focus on a Surgeon, Not a Clinic

Choosing a specific surgeon allows you to evaluate their expertise and experience. Look for surgeons who do revision surgery, which corrects the results of unsuccessful surgeries. This procedure demands outstanding technical skill and aesthetic judgment, revealing the surgeon's true proficiency.

Pay attention to the surgeon's area of expertise

Some surgeons work across the whole face; others, like Dr Priti, work only around the eye and the orbit. The Procedures and Treatment sections set out exactly what is done here

Consider the surgeon’s style

Look at patient photographs and see whether the results are consistent, lids that match each other, brows that keep their own shape. This can indicate that the surgeon has a distinct signature style. Make sure their style aligns with your preferences, or find a surgeon who offers personalised, tailored solutions.

Prioritise post-operative care

Some clinics promise to do surgery that is 'painless and causes no bruising'. However, it still takes time to recover, even from gentle treatments. Choose a surgeon who offers extended follow-up care and is an expert in managing complications.

Understand the value of quality

High-quality medical services cannot be cheap, and revisions are often more complex, costly, and come with potential health risks. On the other hand, a very high price doesn’t always guarantee a highly qualified surgeon or perfect results. What you are paying for is the judgement of where to cut and how much to leave, and the follow-up that comes after it.

Don’t trust a surgeon who agrees to every request without consideration

This may indicate a lack of responsibility. Sometimes, a patient may ask for a procedure without understanding that the results could appear unnatural or negatively affect their health. Around the eye that matters more than anywhere. Taking too much skin or too much fat cannot be undone, and an eye that will not close fully is a problem for the sight, not only for the appearance.

Choose a surgeon you feel comfortable with

Once you’ve checked the surgeon’s qualifications, schedule a consultation. This will help you see if you feel comfortable with the doctor and how attentive they are to your needs.
