Dr. Haworth performed a lower blepharoplasty w/ fat transfer on my eyes 6 days ago, using dissolvable sutures. The incision was made directly under my lower lash line. I have bags under my eyes at age 46 that show up in the morning and later in the afternoon, making me look tired. Deep sockets as well.

Hi, I am confused. You are rating this doctor 5 stars but stating in other areas of Realself:

Here you say it looks great, but it seems that you have legitimate concerns elsewhere.

I wanted to get a sense what other doctors had to say. Most on here including several oculoplastic surgeons who specialize in reconstructive eyelid surgery said after viewing my photos that it is likely I will make a full recovery and that this is part of the common healing process of a lower bleph procedure as mine.

How can someone say it is worth it when they feel as though they may have complications??

Hi. My healing complications are not his fault. If you view the issue I have had with one eye that was bleeding continuously for almost two days following surgery and how he was quick to respond when I voiced concerns, advising on aftercare, what else can he do at this stage? He is monitoring this as am. I am a very reasonable person and believe in waiting to see the final result before jumping to conclusions.

First post op photos of lower blepharoplasty with fat transfer to sockets and slightly below
Had some continuous bleeding from my left under eye in tear duct area (as seen in photos, eye on the right). Woke on morning after surgery to find my left eye (right eye in pics) had completely sealed shut with dried blood caked over my entire top eyelashes. I literally needed several q tips saturated in water to unseal my eye by slightly wetting the top lashes. It took about 8 or 9 qtips to do this.
