- I had my upper bleph with Aoife and it couldn’t have gone better. Everything was super easy, painless, and I didn’t get any bruising at all! I’m 3 weeks post-op and already love the results. Highly recommended! I’m already planning to come back for a Botox brow lift :)
- Everything went perfectly and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Also fantastic aftercare, which made all the difference.

- I am very happy to recommend Aoife Naughton to anyone seeking eyelid surgery. My whole experience from the initial consultation through surgery and post op checkup has been exceptional.
- I had an upper blephoplasty with Aoife. I had wanted one for years and after doing a lot of research and hearing such excellent reviews about Aoife I decided to go ahead and book a consultation with her. I had prepared some questions beforehand and after the consultation I left feeling much more reassured that I was making the right decision. Aoife answered all my questions with detailed responses. She provided me with a personal email to contact her with any further questions should I need to which I did. Aoife always responded to my questions in detail. The procedure was completely painless even the initial injection of local anaesthetic could not be felt at all. Aoife was reassuring throughout and answered any questions I asked in detail. Following the procedure Aoife advised that I could contact her with any post op concerns, which I did and she responded immediately. I had minimal bruising particularly with my right eye and by day five the swelling had gone down a great deal. Aoife had left me with no noticeable scars to the outer corners of my eyes for which I am most grateful. After three weeks I was enjoying the benefit of the results. I did not feel that I was constantly looking tired anymore and people commented on how open and refreshed my eyes looked. Thank you Aoife for your professionalism and for providing such a successful reassuring experience. I am extremely happy with the results. I would definitely recommend you to anyone considering having an upper blephoplasty in the future.
