Upper eyelift and fat transfer - happy with initial results

ORIGINAL POST

Upper Eyelift and Fat Transfer

Jacquiw72
WORTH IT
Its been a year since my Neck and lower face lift and i have lost a bit more weight since 1st Op..only about 7lbs..however noticed a lot of volume loss on upper cheek area and i felt lower eye area.
Contacted same surgeon for advice , initially he thought a lower eyelift and fat transfer would be best option.
When i arrived in Turkey and had face to face visit. He thought upper eyelift and fat transfer would be the best, as he said I did not need surgery on lower eye.
I trusted his judgement and im only 3 days post op..and had stitches removed this morning.
Still swollen and slight brusining however happy with inital results

Bruising coning out due to fat transfer.
Eyelids most swollen when i wake. Hardest thing to trying to sleep on back with head raised.. eyesight does become blurry during day or just woke...i add my drops then to ensure eye is not dry

4 week update

Today marks Week 4 since op.
I was a bit concerned about healing last week as eyes were red and bumpy..i could see the odd stitch. However did show photos to surgeon and he had no concerns.
Started scar cream treatment 2-4 times a day and have seen slight improvement in past week.
I feel one eye is healing better than other. However I will trust process

You look great 4 weeks in. How did the fat transfer hold up? As I understand you lose a certain percentage
