Hi Angie - you got a very good result, and the eyes definitely look much younger and pretty. The idea of extending the incision enough outwards was surely a good one!

So, I've always been nervous about trying Botox, but I went to Dr P's injector anyway and told her to use a tiny amount on my 11s. She injected 14 units. It did pinch and I had a light, transient headache right above the bridge of my nose for about two days, but holy cow. I loooove Botox.

Here are some current photos. White line pretty visible without makeup. I hope they fade more over time.

R your eyelids "stained" darker that under the brow from yrs of using brown/taupe shadow? Mine are. And so the healed scar b/c it is light looks even more so in contast. Does the scar take shadow in the same way or does it stay light? It will take a long, long time b/4 it gets to the same color as the lid. But for a result as great, with beautiful eyes-wide-open having to work a bit on color matching is a small price to pay! Love it!

Hi Grace, yes, I do think my eyelids are stained taupe-ish because that is the shadow I always wear! I feel like the white lines do take shadow the same way as the rest of my eyelid at this point.

I think the scar was placed really well and is not very noticeable. You look great

It's good to know that about make up and staining and scars. I always wear a brownish shade, so I will probably face same issue. However, I never went makeup free before my op, so I can't see that happening any time in the future (I had a bleph, not a rebirth!) Your eyes are really wide awake and softened, what a superb job.

@Angie, you look great! Scars aren't noticeable at all when your eyes are open, and probably aren't noticeable to anyone who isn't specifically looking for them. I'm now 5 months post-op and my scars are barely visible. But once in a great while they seem more prominent than usual, and feel a little irritated. Do you still have any numbness or pain?

No numbness or pain at all. :)
