In an earlier post i incorrectly named the eye ointment used after 10th day - it was actually Siguent Clor 1% not Hydrochlor

I have found hirudoid ointment very good to reduce the swelling, esp below eyes.

Happy - 5 months post op
Great result, even I am sure about that now.
Dr Ben still thinks my brow muscles are working to pull up my eyebrows, as I had to do for years to see past the upper lids. I guess it became habit, and he suggested Botox might assist in relaxing forehead muscles, and letting the eyelid settle.
If I had been able to afford the lower lid bleph, I would have done it, but I was not medically indicated, just aesthetic. The lower lids copped the gravitational 'fallout' of the surgery and are possibly worse off post op, still sometimes filling like fluid bags, when I sleep prone or have been very teary, etc.

Trust me, I would not usually take nor publicise unattractive photos of myself. This was purely for the benefit of other people considering similar surgery and looking at all the outcomes, positive and negative. As I had done before my surgery. I was grateful for the willingness of other people to share their journeys.
