He works in the south West (Exeter) and he is a pioneer of not using the leg tissue or the sling rods but basically he solves the eye lid problem by attaching the lid directly to the frontalis muscle which he pulls down and attaches to the lid. He says this is the new method that the Doctors in China have been using and he has been working along side them.It also removes the need to redo the operation later with facie tissue from the leg as the operation is a permanent one. Has anyone had this done? My daughter has a surgery scheduled for August 7Th and I need to know more about this fast. We have a great surgeon that worked with Mr. Collin. He is in Salt Lake City, Utah USA (Dr. Patel of the Moran Eye Center). I was unable to reach him today and hate to wait all weekend to learn anymore. I will persist on Monday but would love to hear from anyone that has had this surgery or knows more. Thanks Get the free toolbar and rest assured with the added security of spyware protection.
