Things are still getting better. My scars have faded to red lines- almost unnoticeable. I still have some malar funkiness going on. Boo hiss. But the doc says he believes it will go away. So far I'm pretty happy with the results. One eye looks better than the other, but my lids look FABULOUS. $4,200 worth of happy? Not yet, more like $3,500 worth of happy. But maybe in another 3 months everything will smooth out completely. Update in 3 months.

When I said I wanted younger eyes, I didn't mean I wanted them to have pimples. But, that's what I'm fighting right now. It seems eyelids love to get little pimples as they heal. Oh well. At least I'm starting to be happy with my operation. There is still some swelling and one eye looks a lot better than the other as far as the bags are concerned. Hopefully the other will catch up as more swelling subsides. My vision is no longer blurry and I've been driving for about a week. There is no discomfort left, but my eyelids feel numb when I put on mascara.

Had the ends of my stitches pulled a couple of says ago. I said to the nurse, "I thought these were dissolvable."
"We'll, they are and aren't."
What's that supposed to mean? I'm an information hound and cryptic words are only my friends when I read mystery novels.
So, the swelling is going down and I look less like The Godfather every day. The process is s-l-o-o-o-o-w. if someone says you can be back to work in 3 or 4 days (or even out of the house in 7), you'd better be some young 20 year-old or those numbers just don't apply. Yesterday was the first day I could even see without my eyes watering. And that stinking chemosis (in both eyes now) is just starting to go down. I won't even get started on the HUGE bags under my eyes. Well that was $4,000 well spent. I'm just plain grumpy that I still look like crap. This should get better. Correction, this better get better.

Dr. Young was quick and to the point. He checked out my eyes and said, "Yep, you could benefit from quad eyelid surgery." I didn't plan on getting an upper lid lift, but Dr. Young recommended it. I'm glad he did because they were all saggy and the staff said you may as well-- a lot of woman come back later to do the uppers and why go through the expense and down time twice? Seemed legit. He answered all my questions to my satisfaction and he had a confident manner that spoke of experience. The price for all four lids was reasonable, and you simply can't ignore the fact that the surgeon's name is Young. His staff is very nice and helpful. I think they all got an office discount for boob jobs because all the ladies had breasts to be proud of. Now that's the best kind of advertisement--an office staff happy with their enhancements.
