Still have prominent eye bags after lower bleph (5 weeks post surgery)? (Photo)

Asked By:lsdmpls in New York, NY

I had a bilateral lower bleph (transconjunctival) 5 weeks ago. I still have eyebags and bags that appeared 3 weeks post surgery. My doctor offered to do a re-do. I am feeling disappointed and apprehensive having to undergo a second one. Are these residual bags that were not removed/not re-positioned properly? Or are my eyes still recovering from swelling? Why did the bags return? I am a non-smoker and in good health. Is it safe to have the revision 8 weeks post surgery? When is an ideal time to do it?
