11 Weeks After Endoscopic Browlift, Why Do Close Friends Who Don't Know I've Had the Procedure Ask if I'm Sad?

May 8, 2012

Apparently, I ended up going from looking normal before my brow lift to now having a sad look! Had neck lift and cheek lift at the same time. Now, there's a more vacant look to my eyes. Only close friends upon seeing me for the first time after my surgery have asked. No, they are not jealous of my new look and don't know each other. Why do my post brow lift eyes look sadder? What can be done to help me--how soon can I do it? Original surgeon just says you look wonderful when I tell him. Thanks!
