March 8, 2012
Asked By:Katerina8911

I had my 3rd ptosis surgery on Jan 27, my eye was almost correct & you can barely tell but for self esteem issues, I did the 3rd surgery anyways its been a month & a half and my eye is smaller than before & according to my doctor "its still puffy" there has been NO progress since the 2nd week of my surgery, my eye is smaller than before & the skin ontop is drooping over my eye lid, is this normal? I can open & close the eye, and see, just its smaller and I'm worried cause it now looks terrible.
