“Upper Eyelid Surgery”

Worth It

Spent: $2,358 in Minnesota
I had this done in office under local. That way I was able to open and close my eyes so the doctor could make sure they were even.
Wonderful experience, I am on my third day, and the swelling on the upper lid is going down, have a little swelling under my eyes, Pain is almost non existant. Eyes a little dry and sensitive to prolonged viewing. I get my stiches out in 3 days.
Updated on 4 Nov 2011:
November 4th 2011, Had my eyes redone, free of charge because there was still some skin left and I wanted a little more lid. I still have a little skin tag on one eye, lets see how that heals. Was a little more painful this time.

My rating:
He was a perfectionist, wanted to make sure my eyes were even and what I wanted. Talked to me during the procedure to calm me, made sure I was comfortable.

Hi Nancy -- Just wondering how you're doing now? Are you completely healed?
Feb, 2012, 3 months and I still have some seam lines on the inside area of my eyes, not healing as fast as the incisions along the outer area. Makeup gets stuck in the seams, and have to scrape out with Q-tip. Still have the skin tag on one side, not as noticable as before, but there. Not sure if I will go back to have it taken care of as I seem not to heal very quickly or scarless. But I am happy with the results, you can see eyelid, where as before, the lid was lying on my eyelashes.
