As a social worker, we communicate with our eyes. In my case, my upper lids were so swollen that I looked mean. Dr Weston corrected that problem and I was very pleased. Recovery was 2 weeks or so...and 6 months later, I continue to heal and get more and more compliments from how "rested" and "younger" I look.

Wow, wow, wow! Great results. You look so refreshed. Thank you for sharing on RealSelf! Were there parts of your recovery that were particularly challenging?

I tried to sleep upright for at least a week to keep the blood draining...and wore frozen plastic eye glass things to keep the swelling down...it was tough to watch TV or sleep much of the day as I tried to keep from working. But no pain...I just looked like a monster for a while and kept myself home. I'd do it again for sure (but I hope not to)

You are very Lucky you had such an easy recovery! Most people aren't so lucky. I would never recommend a brow lift to anyone! I am still having strong side effects 3 months later. I can't run, jog or doing any sports. The top of my head feels skin tight numb. And hurts like heck. It feels like little bugs are under my skin. I lost a lot of hair. My face lift turned out great. I eye lift turned out great but DID effect my Vision! The brow lift is horrible! You took a big gamble. I'm happy for you but I don't think people like you know what could have happened to you... It has been horrible !!!!!

I used Doctor Jay Burns in Dallas,He did a great job,I have heard that Doctor Ken Smart JR.In Frisco Texas is also a great PS,Women who have used him say they were very pleased with him,If I ever have more PS I am going to use him.

Brow lifts are barbaric! 4 months later I can't do any sports. I have burning on my forehead! I feel like I have a very tight hay on my head! I have CONSTANT head aches! Never encourage people to have a Brow lift! It's a GAMBLE!!!! Be responsible of what you tell people !!!!!!!!
