It's been about 4 weeks since my surgery. I am 39 yo, I have always had heavy eyelids (genetics), but felt that my eyelids were also sagging and crepey-like. I like the results for the most part. My scars are still pretty pink. I no longer have any bruising which lasted almost 3 weeks. My doctor said that was not common, but I tend to bruise easy. I feel like he could have taken off a little more on left eye. The right eye is perfect. I haven' t gone back for my 4 week follow up as of yet, to discuss my left eye.

Great review?

I went to my follow-up, and the doctor agreed he could have take a little more skin from the left eye. I am going back to have surgery with local anesthesia free of charge. I am very excited!

I'm not sure. I have a follow-up appointment May 10.

Do you think the asymmetry could be due to residual swelling on the left side?

Please keep us posted on your progress and what your doctor says.
