Hollow look after brow and blepharoplasty

Edward D. Buckingham, 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!

Don't be too concerned with your appearance one week after surgery.  You probably did your research well when you selected your surgeon and looked at their before and after photos.  I would encourage you to not worry about the situation too much right now and give it some time.  If however that don't work for you look at your surgeons photos again.  It will probably reassure you that the results are natural and yours will be too.
