After seeing such amazing results on RS with tear trough implants I decided to look into it. I’m scheduled for surgery on June 19th and I can’t wait. I’ll try to post some pictures of before and after closer to my surgery date. I’m going to fly to Austin for the surgery and have already had my blood work, EKG and consultation.

My eyes look very similar. I’m interested in the tear trough implants as well. There is just so much negative information out there about them. This doctor seems to be the expert in this surgery. Good luck! I’m looking forward to following your process.

Is it $6,800 just for the tear trough implants?

Both tear trough and lip implants.

Actually it was $6400 for both lip implants and tear trough implants. I also found out the my previous PS had removed fat from under my eyes. Not thrilled about that.

It was exactly 7 days ago. Still look like a zombie but I can ready tell I’m going to be happy with he results. It was very worth he trip. Pain is minimal and I’ve only needed Tylenol and Advil. Well and lots of ice packs!

Looks amazing!! I’m going for first time with fillers under my eyes and I’m scared, with all the horror pics I’ve seen on this site.. doing boletero.. I’m 43 and the hollow under my eyes is literally killing me!! I’ve done fillers before, but never under my eyes.. going in 10 days and I’m between canceling appt and being excited at possible results!

Before photos. I’m also getting permalip implants at the same time provided I’m a good candidate.

I won’t make decision on the lip implants until I have face to consult. Both the doctor and his staff have been very open and forthcoming so far. Very pleased with the doctors openess about discussing risks and possible complications that while rare do happen. I’m just so excited to be done with fillers every six months. I will post a before of my lips soon. No filler for a year so I’m really seeing how bad thy are!

Please send us an update with photos right after the procedure. I have the same eye issues that you have and I am excited to read about your experience and results. Be well!

Day of photos posted! Hope it didn’t scare anyone! It looked worse than it was. No pain meds needed. Most difficult part was having to sleep sitting up. Ugh!

Thank you! That was very kind! I’m three weeks on Thursday and still not going out in public. Still in that phase of swelling going up and down. I just can’t make myself sleep sitting up which would help. My husband says he can already see a big improvement so patience!

Jewels: PATIENCE in capitals. I am very impatient myself. It is good that you have husband support. That means a lot to you I am sure. Heal and be well!
