Under Eye Crepey Skin Wrinkling After Bleph Surgery?

May 21, 2012
Asked By:anonymous99

I had a mini-lift with upper and lower bleph - at first my face looked great, but as the swelling receded (it's now been 8 weeks) Im noticing a major amount of crepey wrinkly skin under the eyes, especially when I smile. Wasn't there before! My skin was in good shape before but now I look a 100! I don't know what to do as I have a very important engagement in 3 months, so laser is not an option in this short period of time. I tried a 20% glycolic peel but made problem worse - would microdermabrasion help?
