34 with Droopy Eyelids Had Endotine Brow Lift - England, DE

I'm certainly not a medical expert and I have not had this procedure done personally, but the upper eyelid drooping simply looks like swelling to me, which I would think would be totally normal at this stage in your recovery. I would definitely give it some more time! I would also imagine that crying (facial movements/expressions, would not be helping your healing either. You're a lovely young lady. We always see the worst in ourselves. Consult with your surgeon to ask him what you can expect, read through other patient reviews & ask them, or ask a doctor directly on this website. Best of luck!

I meant to mention - I think you look incredible as far as overall swelling and bruising, just 9 days post-op. Look over some of the other patients' photos on this site and it may help you feel better. Ha! You may try eating pineapple or taking Arnica supplements to help speed up the fading of your (light) bruising. I have had breast augmentation surgery and dermal fillers done and I can tell you from experience, our mental state plays a huge role in recovery and probably the overall outcome. Just relax, eat well, step back from the miror for a while, follow your doc's post-surgery instructions, and I think you will be surprised at how well it turns out. Waiting is the hardest part. I would certainly think that once the swelling goes down, your eyes will look much more prominent and you will be alot more pleased with your results. Hope this helps.

Although I didn't see your before picture, I think your forehead looks great. Your eyes look a little puffy but I'm sure that's because you are only a little more than a week beyond surgery. From what I've read on this board, the swelling takes a lot longer than 9 days to go down. I think you look great! I only hope to do as well after 9 days. Please keep us updated. And thanks for sharing.
