Evaluation of Post op Eyelids

Barry E. DiBernardo, MD answers: Hollow eyes after Blepharoplasty?

I am one week post op from a brow lift and upper eyelid surgery. My eyes seem very hollow and I am scared he took to much off because now I have a very thick eyelid and my eyes almost look pop eye. Will this get better? My eyes seem more round and have lost their almond shape. Please advise!

In any surgery, one ahs to wait several months (like 6) to see the final effect.  Examining too early will only get you nervous and frustrated.  You should share your concerns with your physician who will give you the same area...but will note it to make sure you both address this at the appropriate time.
