$3,750
The bags under my eyes have driven me crazy for years. I have bought every product known to mankind in an attempt to make them disappear. So, when I visited my doctor to schedule a scar revision I mentioned the eyes and he showed me before and after photos of others. I was sold. I had to pay for the surgical suite anyway so why not get this done.
Photos soon.

One week from today....photos before
I never posted photos of my tummy tuck and breasts prior to surgery and I regret that. So, here is a photo of me prior to surgery. This is a good day...if my bags decide to pack themselves full I will try to get additional photos at that time.

This time next week, you will be bag-less! Yay! CONGRATS in advance -- will be claiming a very positive and joyful outcome for you! :-)

I'm so excited for you! I had my lower Blepharoplasty surgery one month ago. I'm doing really well. I can't wait to follow your journey.

Lucky you, I have to wait 3 weeks. The waiting is killing me. Can't wait to see yours. So exciting. I'm sure you will be very happy. I love looking at the before and after pictures too, what a difference.

Thank you Precious. I love my surgeon and feel very comfortable with him, so I am sure it will be a great outcome (God willing). :) I am spending my week getting ready. I hope your surgery goes well too!! I will be watching.

Day One
We were all dreading recovery because it was so extensive. This surgery had been very easy and the lower eyelids aren't the only thing I had done, but the other area is the top of my public bone so I will keep that to myself, for now.
I am up and down on my own, not taking as much medication. I look like heck, but this has been easier so far.

The worst is over. Just keep icing or maybe you've moved on to heat by now? Just follow your doctors orders and try to rest. Keep us posted. :)

arica helps heal bruises and swelling. you might try to find some at the drug store or vitamin shop. there's a pill and cream. my surgeon recommend to take before and after surgery. most on here have taken it too.

I have been told to not put anything on it. Yes I was completely knocked out and yes there are stitches.

well i guess you need to follow instructions, funny how all surgeons are so different in their opinions for the same surgery. some are told to put cream in their eyes. so speedy recovery and keep giving us pics. we love to see progress. i heard the first week is the worst and it just gets better!

Thanks so much for sharing this. Wow, your bruising isn't nearly as bad as I was expecting. I am scheduled for next month and this really helps! Good luck with your continued recovery.
