Nightmare Lower Eye Lid Surgery

Back in 2008 I had a nose job and lower eyelid surgery to remove under eye bags. I was 26 at the time. I originally went in for nose job. The day of my surgery he mentioned the under eye bags and he asked me if I wanted to remove them. I agreed but I did Not know what I had agreed too and he never explained the procedure. I love my nose job, he really did a good job because it looks very natural and pretty however the lower eyelid was a nightmare. He removed too much fat leaving me with sunken and hollow look. The healing process for the eyelid was horrible. My eyes pulled down and exposed a lot of the white of my eyes. Dr Regil kept telling me to pull the skin and massage it , he also advised try to close and open my eyes tight to see if condition improved. Well it didn’t so he injected a little bit of Botox to relax the muscles that were causing the pulling down of my eyes. As a result of the lower eyelid surgery I developed depression and anxiety. I dealt with depression for about 5 years until I decided to get profesional mental help. It been 12 years since my surgery and I’ve come a long way but its never been the same. 4 years ago I got under eye filler and the sunken look improved, but filler effect disappeared in less than 1 year. Two years ago I got fat transfer to my lower eye lid area. The procedure also improved my look provided some under eye support and gave me a smooth transition from lower eye lid to cheek. At this time I am finally ready to proceed with revision Surgery to fix my eyes and am very hopeful that this doctor can help me. He is a specialist in eye lid surgery and has more than 20 years experience doing this type of surgery and has treated many patients with the same issues I have. Any way I hope this helps someone.
