Yesterday I finally had my lower blepharoplasty with Dr. Lee. I was nervous but knew I was in good hands. I had local anesthesia so I was awake the entire time. But, I felt nothing! Just keep breathing using the laughing gas and you will be fine.
I'm super swollen and had double vision after I got out. But, this AM I'm seeing just fine. Still no pain, just swollen and slightly uncomfortable. Just took Tylenol. I'm supposed to ice my eyes every hour for 15min. Prescription eye drops need to be taken 2x/day. That's pretty much it for after care. I'll try to post a daily pic in case anyone is interested in the process.
Btw, Krissy was awesome with making everything go smoothly.

I’m having issues loading clear pics. But, I’m still pretty swollen. No pain. The swelling spread to other parts of my face. My cheeks are huge. I was hoping the swelling would have been reduced more by now. I am icing now every 4hours. Thank goodness for these masks bc I can cover up the tape with the masks. The compression tape gets removed in 2 days.

I got my compression tape removed 7 days later, but I was still quite swollen. They said it wasn’t typical. I was quiet concerned concerned bc I had a work presentation in a few days. The swelling finally went down yesterday and today. My under eye area is still sensitive to touch (not painful). Still slight pressure in my eye as well when I make certain moves.

I can begin working out in 2 days. Next appt is in 3 weeks.
