At a Glance

Our eyes are often one of the more prominent areas which can show signs of ageing. It can also be one of the more difficult areas to treat. Surgery can involve a long recovery period, while other non-surgical procedures may not deliver the desired results. The solution is SmoothEye.

Centre for Surgery uses Fotona’s SmoothEye treatment, which softens the appearance of wrinkles, tightening the skin and making it look more youthful.

About

As we naturally age, the production of collagen reduces and the signs of ageing increases.

SmoothEye works to stimulate the production of collagen around the eyes. This can help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and increase skin laxity, leaving you with a more rejuvenated and refreshed appearance.

Using laser ensures the results will continue to improve over time as the collagen production continues.

Candidates

You will be a suitable candidate if you are showing signs of ageing around the eyes and are wishing to improve your aesthetic appearance.

You will need to have realistic expectations about what the procedure can achieve.

Before undergoing SmoothEye you will need to have a consultation with one of our surgeons. They will be able to assess whether or not you are considered a suitable candidate for this procedure or whether there are alternative options which are better suited for you.

Procedure

SmoothEye is performed as a day procedure. You will be able to return back to your usual daily routine straight after the procedure.

SmoothEye uses Fotona’s SP Dynamis laser which has an Nd:YAG wavelength.

The laser is used to heat the deeper layers of the skin, which increases the production of collagen. Over time, this reduces the appearance of wrinkles.

Prior to undergoing laser treatment, a topical anaesthetic may be applied to reduce any discomfort.

You may wish to combine this treatment with other non-surgical procedures to achieve the best results.

Recovery

This is a non-invasive procedure, so there is minimal downtime. You will be able to resume your usual activities straight away.

You may experience some tightening and redness of the skin after the procedure, which will settle after the first few days.

It may take a few weeks to start seeing results as the collagen is stimulated. Results will continue to improve over time.

You may wish to avoid excess sun and heat exposure for seven to 10 days to ensure you can achieve the best results.

Can I have SmoothEye treatment?

You will need at least three treatments to achieve the best results. This may vary from person to person and your surgeon will be able to advise you on your best treatment plan.
Will laser hurt?

You will have a topical anaesthetic cream applied to the skin prior to treatment to help minimise any discomfort. You may be able to feel some heat during treatment, however this will not be unbearable.

I would recommend anyone looking to have a cosmetic surgery to visit the Centre For Surgery. I had two procedures done the same day, forehead osteoma excision and an open septo-rhinoplasty under their general anaesthesia technique – known as ClearSleep™, it allows you o be discharged the same day, right after the surgery you'll be able to get up and dress yourself with very little drowsiness that subsides within the following 30 minutes. The medical technique used by the surgeon for the rhinoplasty also made my recovery period very easy with little bruising and swelling that went away very quick. I didn't take any pain-killers as there was no need for them, only antibiotics pills for a week and some antibiotic cream for the incision between the nostrils.The process from first consultation to post-operative visits was a bliss. Nikesh Shah the patient coordinator was fantastic and made it all very easy for me as I live 6700 miles away from London and we needed to work around my visits to the UK. Dr Onur Gilleard is the kind of Surgeon you want, knowledgeable, patient, calm and reassuring, I had two visits pre-surgery and one post-surgery with him, every time I felt I was what mattered the most at that moment. The Nurses and the Anesthesiologist were fabulous during the day of the surgery, I wasn't particularly nervous but they made sure I had any questions answered prior to the surgery and had smile on their faces all the time while displaying high professionalism at all times. Post-operative visits went very well and eight days after my surgery I was flying back. It's been almost two months now and I'm very pleased with the results, which are very natural and most people after the second week couldn't tell I had any procedure done. You can have a chaperon and driver booked by the Centre For Surgery to go back to your hotel, it was a great service. Post-surgery you will be called every day to check how you are doing/feeling and if there is anything you need until you decide that the calls can stop.Overall a fantastic experience with the Centre for Surgery and their staff, which I have already recommended to many of my friends looking to have a cosmetic surgery.

Dr. Omar Tillo performed a bilateral otoplasty a few weeks ago and the results are better than I ever expected. I am very happy that I chose Dr. Tillo to perform my surgery. I visited both clinics for various appointments and they both are of a very high standard; all staff members were professional and very caring. I would highly recommend this practice. Thank you for the amazing job you performed.

I would highly recommend a consultation with with Dr Tillo as a surgeon you can trust. His secretary Nickesh was also lovely to deal with & allowed me to come to a comfortable & unhurried decision about wether to go ahead with my procedure.

I recently had a breast augumentation under Dr Omar Tillo and couldn't recommend him enough! He is a clear professional in what he does as I've had fantastic results!! I am quite an anxious person but Omar was very accommodating and patient with me in answering all queries and booked additional appointments for check ups. Thank you so much centre for surgery :)
