Love My New Eyelids

Thanks, it's been 8 months since my surgery. The healing process continues for many months. The incisions get smoother and lighter over time. Give it more time and you'll see many changes. My PS saw swelling for a few months under my eyes. Be patient and be good to yourself. Vitamin C helps promote healing. My PS told me to take vitamin C twice daily. Be sure to use sunscreen daily :-)). Be glad that your doctor did not take too much lower skin and cause your eyes to droop! You look really good and it will keep on improving.

Hi both. Like Mrs M I am 8 months out and still have swelling under right eye. Try not to worry

Thanks! I started using Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair w/sun screen. It's beginning to burn when I put it on so I'm cutting back on using it twice a day. The sagging skin is just really bothering me. My pics don't really show their extreme. Otherwise, I'm very happy with the results. Thanks for getting back to me.

Have you ever checked out the Paula's Choice Beautypedia? I started using Paula's Choice skin care after my surgery. They have a very educational YouTube channel too. Here is their review for that product: Category: Skin Care > Moisturizers (Daytime and Nighttime) > Moisturizer with Sunscreen Last Updated:12/3/2014 Jar Packaging:No Tested On Animals:Yes This daytime moisturizer with sunscreen includes avobenzone for reliable UVA (anti-aging) protection, so it's off to a good start. The silky lotion formula is suitable for normal to oily or combination skin, but the anti-aging ingredients touted in the product's claims are in short supply, and this ends up being a rather ordinary boring formulation. Although claimed to produce remarkable results in one week, given the formula, it just isn't going to happen. At best, this provides lightweight hydration and broad-spectrum sun protection, which is important, but hardly unique to this product. Please see our list of Best Moisturizers with Sunscreen. Pros: Provides broad-spectrum sun protection (essential for preventing wrinkles and brown discolorations). Lightweight, silky lotion works well under makeup. Cons: Ends up being expensive because the formula is just average. The state-of-the-art anti-aging ingredients referred to in the product's claims are barely present, so don't expect impressive or "rapid wrinkle repair."

I don't have swelling. I have actual loose skin bagging under both eyes.

Thanks! I will look into this. I appreciate all the information. :)

You are so sweet. So happy that I helped you! Please post some updated pics so I can see. Merry Christmas to you!

Thank you so much. I hope you are as lucky as me!

Thank you for your kind words. Yes, I am overjoyed and very appreciative.

Thanks Cassandra! This is the only thing I've done to my face. I've never had Botox or filler but thinking about filling in my lip wrinkles with Juvederm. I'm a big chicken and I don't want to mess up my lips and end up with duck lips. Haha

You don't need any more.!

You are so sweet! I appreciate your kind words. I wish you all the best with your surgery. Please share your results too :-))
