Asked By:rogndon in Tampa, FL

I had upper and lower blepharoplasty two weeks ago. I am feeling very regretful about the eyes. It looks as though the shape of my eyes have changed and I am getting a lot of swelling under and at the tops of my cheeks, my nose also seems swollen. I was led to believe in a few days and no none would notice I had anything done, I would look "refreshed". I see my surgeon in two days and will address my concerns, I am just wondering if this healing process is normal? Thanks in advance.
