After researching this surgery for about 7 months,...
after researching this surgery for about 7 months, I finally decided to go with under eye bag removal. lower bleph...with Dr. Will in Plainfield. I will post pics and will update on my process. The surgery is scheduled for Wed. March 26th and I will be under local anesthesia only. yes I'm very nervous about being awake but I heard its not so bad so we'll see...more to come soon..
Day of surgery
I had the procedure done today at 11am. I was given two Valium a half hour before surgery then was giving shots to numb the area. (Yes they hurt) I listened to my iPod to take away the distraction but found myself lowering the sound to hear what was going on. It wasn't painful. Just felt heat and pulling from the fat removal. A few times I had to be given more numbing because I would start feeling the pinch or heat. Overall it wasn't too bad. I have begun icing every 20 min which is annoying but should make the swelling less. My only concern now is my lower eyelids are pulled down which is very ugly and feels very odd. The doc said this is ok and should go back to normal in a few days but I'm starting to get anxiety over it. I guess it's only the first day so I shouldn't freak out just yet. I'll keep updating on this progress.
Day 3
It's day 3 and not looking any better. I woke up with my eyes closed shut from crusting and oozing. I don't know if I can wash the area w the stitches to take off the crusting. My eyes are red and swollen and the outer corners are drooping which is my main concern. I think I'm going to call the doctor today. My eyes are very sore also. I have been really good with icing so the swelling and brushing under my eyes isn't that bad but I don't like that my eyelids are pulled away from my eye balls. I hope it's just the swelling...my eye shape is definitely different right now and I don't like it.
