I turn 51 in a few weeks and definitely the upper blepharoplasty with lower skin pinch was a decision I don't regret. I still maintain a good skin care program and so far feeling good. My advise would be find a reputable doctor and get at least 3 opinions before your final decision. Don't focus on cost as much as quality work. Also ask for patient photos specific to the work you want performed.

Thought I would include an update almost 3 years later and hopefully offer encouragement to anyone out there who is considering surgery. The changes are natural and youthful. I continue to practice good skin care.

VERY helpful. I had my lower eyelids done and I can see how important it is to do the uppers as well, for a youthful appearance. You are stunning and if you were open-minded and available, I'd ask you out! And I'm not a dude. Just another latina maintaining all that she can while she can!

Thanks for taking the time to read my review. Same here - trying to maintain but keeping it natural and real.
I am flattered with your interest but I really like men.

You look great! Thank you for your encouragement.I will be having mine in a month and I am very nervous. Were you very swollen after the surgery? Was it painful?

More bruising than swelling. I was instructed to take arnica pills before the surgery which could have helped. I also iced as instructed by my doctor and then if I recall I did warm compresses. I can honestly say after a week with cover up makeup I looked almost normal.

Still enjoying the results. Don't need to wear as much makeup. The scars are no longer visible and the canthopexy settled well. This procedure was well worth it considering it took years off my face since my eyes always looked tired and saggy.

Thanks for your feedback.
Good skin care and eyelid surgery is what's keeping it together.
