1 year update

I can't believe that a year has passed. I have really enjoyed my new look. My eyes are much more symmetrical now. I went and had hd laser browse done. I look much younger and I haven't had to put on as much makeup as I used to. I love my rounder eyes. Dr. Goretti Ho did a really nice job... My new browse and fake lashes helps too.

6 months update

I have to say this has been an amazing journey for me. I love my new look now. The swelling has gone down alot. My eyes are not totally symmetrical.. I blame God for that :) With makeup I can hardly tell. I am very happy with the work that Dr Goretti Taghva has performed. My scars are so much less visible now. I don't have any scar bumps like the ones I had around 3 weeks. I feel like I look much younger because I don't have to lift my brows to open my eyes 100%. I am very grateful for the ptosis surgery.. The double eyelid is just a bonus. The pressure in my eyes are still there a little but has gone down drastically from the beginning. I have to try to not open my eyes too big else I have this really mean serious look. I have had lash extensions for the last 2 months and I really love them with my new eyes.

10 weeks update

My eyes are so beautiful now. It took me a while to get used to them. They started out so uneven after the surgery because they were healing so unevenly but after 10 weeks they are so much more balanced. Dr. Goretti Ho Taghva did such a wonderful job with my ptosis surgery. My eyes open very good now. The double eye lid part is looking so good now, more balanced out. I must have spent like $600 on makeup just the last couple months to make me look and feel better. I don't feel like an alien walking around anymore lol. I still have scars in the corner of my eyes. I think those will take time to disappear. I used castor oil in the lash and brows and scar areas to help with hair growth and scars. This surgery took a mental toll on my mental and physical being but it was so worth it.
