My son's grandmother had it a few years ago ~ she was probably 63. Totally covered under insurance too. Very quick surgery and recovery.

She was not interested in the esthetics of having it done, it was purely functional as her lids hung over her eyes, but, once the swelling went aways (probably a week) she loved how it looked!!! She had no problems afterward and said the surgery was a breeze. She was diabetic and had loads of health issues, none of which interfered. In fact, the week after her surgery, she flew out to CA from NC to visit ~ looked great too!

My husband talks about wanting it done too. Really helps "open" your face up, as well as making it easier to see!
