How to Fix Bad Results from Blepharoplasty?

April 13, 2009
Asked By:mollie123 in Shelby NC

I had my lower eye lids done. They are so bad, they hang out and too much skin was taken out. You can see the inside of my eye ball and I have to keep putting drops on them. I still have bags. They look so bad, I can't go out. What can be done to fix them? It looks like the surgeon just cut all my skin off. I can't stand it! They hurt and my eyes want close all the way. The bottom lids go over the top and stick. I'm very worried.
