I don't want to spend money into something that is not really important but due to bulgy eye that shows my age ( I am turning 32 but I don't have to look my age right?!).. I begun browsing the internet to have an idea how much blepharoplasty costs as I have seen not less than Php10,000 for just the lower eyelid. As I was browsing the net and turn to groupon which offered almost 50% discount on the procedure (http://www.beeconomic.com.ph/deals/metro_manila/up-to-65-off-on-an-eyebag-removal-surgery-at-recc-optical/715925829) I thought of trying it since it is very cheap as to compare to establishments that offers the same type of service but before I bought the voucher I visited the clinic it was very clean and reputable.
RECC encourage you to visit the clinic before you purchase the voucher for evaluation and they explain to you the procedure. Dr. Rodriguez explained to me that since I am only 31 he will have to remove the fats from the inside of my lower eyelid. They will brief you on what to expect during and after the procedure.
I was advised to bring shades, wear comfortable clothes and bring someone with me to assist me on my way home.
On the scheduled day of the operation I was late but Dr. Rodriguez and his team were so patient and accommodated me warmly.
The only pain that I remember was during injection of anesthesia, the whole procedure was smoothly done Dr. Rodriguez always asks me if I am ok and if I am comfortable. As the procedure ends after an hour.
After the procedure I experienced double vision for few hours which is normal. My lower eyelids were a bit swollen for few days but it turned out beautifully as the day goes by as you can see at the above photo. It was not noticeable at all though some of my friends says I looked younger now.
Thank you to RECC clinic!
