Had a follow up appointment, no more aquaphor to be applied other than right under waterline. Was told to buy cetaphil sensitive skin face moisturizer if skin starts to get dry underneath. Can wear makeup in a couple of days!

Do you have any before pictures at all? And how has your progress been? I’ve been considering this treatment, but I didn’t realize they had a laser treatment rather than cutting.

Hi gorgeous2901. I've had an upper blepharoplasty with Dr Yielding. I believe that in addition to the lower blepharoplasty, this patient had CO2 laser done to the skin under her eyes.

Well I learned about the laser treatment on this page just recently. Mine was done to remove the puffiness on my Upper eyelids but this was back in 2017, even now 2020 you can see like a white line also a few bumps.
I’ll see if I can find a picture of before. I wish you luck with your eyes, maybe laser is the best way to go.

A little more soreness/ burning today around the eyelid when I blink, dead skin from the laser looks like it’s starting to slough off. Overall going well and have follow up appointment in a few days. Feeling extremely tired since the procedure and have been on and off napping the past few days! Not complaining though, lol. Took Tylenol for pain today and it seemed to help well so far.
