When i reached my late 30's i started noticing loose skin under my eyes.People would tell me i looked tired and i really started feeling like i looked my age! Since the eyes are the window to the soul, i wanted to keep my eyes younger looking. I started researching lower eye lid surgery.I knew it might be a little expensive and a tough recovery with stitches so close to the eyes and black eyes for a while,but it would be well worth it! 6 years later i am still very happy with the results and so happy i did it! I get complements all the time on how good my eyes look.People no longer tell me i look tired.I am thrilled with the results and feel so much better since i had the surgery :)

I'm getting mine do tomorrow. Feeling a little nervous. You look great! I'm off 10 days from work. How bad will I look when I go back? Thanks

It really depends on the person for recovery time.I still had bruising. Make up might help with that :)

Hi, I go next week and I'm super nervous. I'm changing my mind from one day to another, I read a good review im excited, I read a bad one and I ask myself do you really want to do this now or just wait a few more years!! Did you know for sure this is what you wanted to do and no doubt about it, or did you have doubts like me?

This is what I wanted to do. I've had bags under my eyes for as long as I can remember. I'm 38. I had it done fri morning and I'd say Sat afternoon through sun afternoon was a little uncomfortable. Last night (Sunday) was starting to get better. But never any pain just sore and swollen. I'll do my own story on here this week sometime to share!

I knew i wanted to get it done,i was just very careful about what doctor i went to.I had several consults before the surgery and got all the information i could until i felt comfortable.
