Eyelid Lift
I had my eyes done (Blepharoplasty) on November 18, 2022. I am 65 and I was having trouble with my field of vision, my contacts were not sitting on my eyes well and by the end of the day my lenses were in the bottom of my eyes. My eyesight was so important and I needed to find a way to improve it if I could. I spoke with Dr. Erickson to see what my options were, the surgery had to be affordable and the recovery time short.
He explained what a blepharoplasty was and in his professional opinion was the best option for the outcome I was trying to achieve. We had a conversation about whether he would use general anesthesia on me or if we were going to do a local anesthesia. I felt very comfortable talking with Dr. Erickson about my choices, I opted not to be put under general anesthesia and for him to perform the surgery under local anesthesia. There is a preoperative protocol starting days before your surgery, we went over all that information and I purchased the products and medications I would need to prepare for my surgery.
The big day arrived, I was excited and scared Dr. Erickson was very reassuring and his nurse was great to. I got a wonderful heated blanket he did my anesthesia, which turned out to be a great choice, I saved some money and the little bit of pain I felt was very tolerable. Dr. Erickson was talking to me the whole time, making sure I was comfortable and not in too much pain. Because he was so knowledgeable and confident it made me feel that way too.
The thought of letting someone alter your face is a really big deal, it took me awhile to wrap my head around everything. I really believe your surgeon is key to the whole experience and I was feeling very glad I choose Dr. Erickson.
My recovery was much better than I expected, not a lot of pain and I could see clearly right away. I followed all my post-operative instructions to the letter. It is hard to tell what you are going to look like with the bruising and the swelling. When all of that subsided the first thing I noticed was the improvement to my field of vision, I was thrilled! The icing on the cake was how I looked, the surgery had taken 10 years off my face. I looked rested and relaxed, I cannot tell you how excited and happy I am with my surgery and Dr. Erickson.
I am planning my next and last adventure in plastic surgery. I am thinking a laser resurfacing might be a good final touch!
