I'm sorry as well! I'm also very emotional and upset. When I read Gogi's post, it remimded me of my own misfurtune with the same procedure. I have posted on the venue many times.
It has be in excess of 14 months since my upper and lower fat grafts to upper and lower eyes. I look as though I need to have my lower eyes done, they are awful and If been walking around with glasses for 14 months to hide them. I now live with buldges of fat and bags under my eyes which were not there prior to surgery. The Dr. now tellls me how GOOD I look PLEEEEEZE! And says he does not want to cut under the eye to remove the excess skin. So, where does that leave me? I went to my eye dr. Who does cosmetic surgery for the eye and he doesn't even know or dare to fix it. I have 2 other drs. to consult with and then, who knows, maybe I should have left well enough alone...... I'm so sad over this
Hi, If you are refering to me(yours2love), it's been 7 months or so now and my Dr. suggested after one year to revise my eyes in 2/2011/(as he states, I'm the 1% that didn't do well w/this type of surgery) and my neck(not enough skin removed). He has told me it is his responsibility to correct($$$$), and is happy to do so(this surgery is not an exact science-my words not his-but understood-read between the lines so to speak).
I do look approx 10 yrs younger, changed my hair color,style and people tell me I look great w/out knowing why BUT- I wear glasses when I out to cover the double blugdles under my eyes and my(gobble-gobble) semi- turkey neck is only 50% better on one side and the other 30%.
I have the utmost faith in my Dr. and would highly recommend him to others. He excells in reconstructive surgery with patients with facial( predominatelty all he performs) deformities!
