At first, Linda didn’t want to consider eyelid surgery. When it came to cosmetic procedures, she admitted, “I always thought it was an ego thing.” Then, macular degeneration and drooping lids began affecting her vision. Linda knew it was time to make a change when she could hardly see cars, especially from her left eye, due to her droopy upper eyelid skin. That’s when her doctor recommended Dr. Scott and his staff.
Aside from her impaired vision, Linda also shared that her eyes were affecting her mental health. She is passionate about traveling and still has numerous places she wants to visit, but after looking in the mirror, she felt she had run out of time. Her drooping eyelids were making her look tired and older. Fixing her eyelids would keep her safe on the road and give Linda her future back.
Fortunately, she felt comfortable at Eye Plastic Associates, and trusted Dr. Scott and his office staff. While Linda’s left eye was more severe, Dr. Scott insisted on performing surgery on both eyes to give the best result possible and give her the change she needed to feel like herself again. She also decided to add laser resurfacing under her eyes to reduce the appearance of eye bags and enhance her new look.
With the return of her clear vision and looking nothing like her age, Linda has booked a flight to the Azores in Portugal and is returning to her world trekking ways. Since she no longer looks tired all the time, she no longer feels tired all the time! As a result of her procedure, Linda has become more active, exercising and socializing.
Linda has also returned to her passion for designing jewelry. She had her first trunk show in years just recently and received rave reviews. Her jewelry can even be found online! If you want to see some of her unique designs, head to DivasJewels.com.
Ultimately, we can tell Linda went through a complete metamorphosis and gained a new, vibrant energy. We are delighted to be a part of that!
