Is two weeks enough to recover from lower blepharoplasty?

February 13, 2015
Asked By:paulcronin in Turkey, TX

I am 33, don't drink much, don't smoke and am in good shape. The past few months i've noticed the bags under my eyes are darker, people have been asking me if I'm tired and stressed. I've become very paranoid about them So I've take a huge decision and have gone on a two week holiday to get a lower blepharoplasty. Is two weeks enough time to recover fully, and even if the bruising and scars disappear, do people often notice the change to the patients face?
