Thank you for taking the time to answer my questions I had upper eyelid surgery 4 weeks ago. I notice that my eyelids are still baggy especially in the corner. Do you think this is how I sold expect my surgery to have ended up?
Answer: Bleph Looks Great!
Thanks for asking. Your upper eyelids look normal one month after surgery. Keep up with your icing protocol, avoid excessive sun exposure and give it some time. The redness that is anxiety provoking will go away. Congrats on your transformation.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Recovery after upper eyelid blepharoplasty surgery
After any surgery, different patients heal at different rates. After having upper eyelid blepharoplasty, it is not uncommon to have residual skin and fullness until all of the swelling and bruising has resolved. 4 weeks is still relatively early in the healing process. Other factors that can be the source of residual skin and fullness may be related to coincidental forehead or brow ptosis (sagging).

Answer: Swelling after eyelid surgery
Swelling after upper eyelid surgery (upper blepharoplasty) can persist for several weeks with most of the swelling gone by 10-12 weeks. Gentle massage can help hasten the resolution of the swelling. Be sure to stay in touch with your doctor with any concerns.

Answer: Eyelids take time to heal
From your photos you are still bruised and swollen. There does not appear to be any error made. You should address your concerns with your surgeon and wait a minimum of three months prior to making a final judgement.
Remember, it is far better to have a little too much fullness after surgery rather than an over corrected eyelid which can cause serious eye problems and can be difficult to correct.

Answer: 4 weeks is still so very early.
Your photos are not really the best for evaluating the result. Bottom line is that in the before photo you have a great deal of brow ptosis and a compensatory muscular brow lift. In the after photo, your brow has now a relaxed appearance. This will cause a slight fall in the eyebrow position but overall can make for a relaxed look. Do you need more skin removed or a forehead lift? It is best to be patient and discuss the overall result with a couple of more months of healing.
