I was always being told how tired I looked. I had under eye bags and hanging skin on my eye lids. I had both areas done. The under eye bags look much better. The eye lids still have problems. The right eye is indented but the left eye still has hanging skin. I thought it would look better and I was offered a redo but the shots are so painful that I just can't go through it again. If I could do it under general anesthesia I would do it but that had not been offered. I don't think it was worth the amount that I paid but am too much of a coward to go through that intense pain of the numbing shots again.

It is important to note that this wonderful patient actually did brave the process again. We were able to successfully correct the minor amount of excess skin she complained about. She was then very happy with her results. I am a big fan of listening to my patients and understanding both their physical and psychological needs. We strive to have satisfied patients. She was great to work with us towards this endeavor.

Sometimes a minor revision is necessary. I'm glad yours has worked out for you.

Thanks for sharing. Can you clarify what procedure you had for your upper lids? It sounds like you had a blepharoplasty for the lowers, is that right?
