I am 64 years old and The procedure consisted in repositioning the fat under my eyes. My eyelids are still very pulled down and swollen. I am really worried as I do not feel any improvement.I went to the ophthalmologist who said I had an inflammation and prescribed some drops. Is what I am going through normal?
