Almost a year now. Wow, time flies!

I can't say, again, how often I marvel at why I waited so damned long for this procedure. The pain was minimal, the results AMAZING. Dr. Koch is a great doctor. He really understands not going "too far" and keeping things natural looking. I couldn't be more pleased. I am uniquely me!

Could not be more thrilled with my results if I tried!!!
Hello, Dolls :)
If you're thinking about an upper and/or lower blepharoplasty, DON'T WAIT. It's SO worth it. While I looked a little roughed up for a few weeks and then a little odd while things "settled in" a bit, I am now feeling AMAZING. Dr. Koch is a real artist. <3 it!

Hi Amy, your posts have been so reassuring. They covered all my questions. I now know how long the recovery takes and not to put ear drops in! Lol! Though I bet it was not in the least funny at the time. I'm having upper and lower eyelid surgery in September 2018. My upper eyelids are getting heavier every year to the extent that when I smile, my eyes disappear. You look totally gorgeous but you already had a headstart because you were already very pretty to begin with. Best wishes. Ann

No pics, but wow -- what a difference physically and to my VISION!
I had no idea just how much of my vision was blocked by my droopy eyelids until the swelling went all the way down after my surgery. WOW! My peripheral vision is just off the charts improved. I don't get headaches every day anymore and my eye strain issues seem to be calming down a lot. Also, and an interesting side effect, I've lost much of the deep line in my forehead which apparently was being caused as my muscles tried to prop open my heavy eyelids so that I could see. It's hard to see in my photos, but it was definitely very deep before and now is almost completely smoothed out. We'll see if that lasts as I settle in. :)
Have a good night, dolls! <3

Hi there! I’ve been following along because I want to do something about my eyelids. Your review has been really, really helpful! Thank you for posting! I was hoping to trying something non-surgical before surgery.... but I’m reading about the headaches you had nd the issues seeing and I’m wondering if this is indeed my problem and if doing something non-surgical is a waste of money and just a temporary fix. Did you try any fillers, etc. first before opting for surgery? I got glasses in December and felt they helped at first but feel my site has gotten worse and so have the headaches. Maybe it has more to do with my eyelids.... I feel so tired all the time and my eyes so heavy. Just assumed it was because of my site and never even thought it just might be my eyelids. Looking forward to your updates! Please keep us posted on your healing!

I can honestly say this: DO NOT WAIT. I really wish I hadn't now that it's all said and done. My headaches are nearly entirely gone. Eye strain is highly reduced (and what is left is likely too much time in front of computer screens). My boyfriend never mistakes me for being asleep when I'm awake and watching TV anymore. I feel more refreshed and overall just love the results! No one that doesn't know seems to catch on that I had work done but I've had tons of comments on how much "more blue" my eyes are, etc.
