Why can’t I get used to my new eyes after upper bleph? 5 months post op. (photos)

February 19, 2018
Asked By:Floris in Belgium, BE

I don’t look like me. Many people have to look twice before they recognise me. 5 months after upper bleph I still can’t seem to get used to my new eyes. I always had hooding and loved my eyes. But at age 55 the hooding was getting worse and eye make up was a daily chalenge. My eyes feel as if I have been crying, tired and tight. What is possible at this point (or later)? Oh and I have bad under eye hollowing / bags /after my UPPER bleph surgery!! How is this possible?
