Upper bilateral blepharoplasty day 1 11/9/2020

One year update- completely happy

WORTH IT$3,500
The past year has flown by. The longest part was the two weeks healing after surgery which I had done in office under local anesthesia. I’m 41.5 years old and I had some excess skin on my upper lids Dr. Chung was able to remove. In the photo I’m fresh out of the shower without any makeup on in natural sunlight next to a window. I do recommend this procedure but make sure you choose your surgeon wisely.

Nice job. You look lovely.
Thank you!
Dr. Chung did a fantastic job with the eye lid procedure. I like your comment... "I look natural, like myself but better." I agree with you that Dr. Chung is not only professional but honest with providing honest feedback. I plan to schedule my explant in 2022 with Dr. Chung. Thanks for sharing your story.
I highly recommend him because he's very ethical. I've asked for procedures and he's told me I don't need whatever I asked fo and he'd explain why. In fact it took him roughly 3 years to agree to do the Bleph because he said I just didn't need it. Looking back he was right at the time but as I aged I had more skin and only then did he agree to do it. He is very skilled you'll be in good hands.
I like! Good for you
gorgeous
Looks amazing! We'll done and considering this for myself as well. With this procedure is there any stitches visible with eyes closed?

Best you can get

I've been seeing Dr. Chung since 2014. He's done a breast augmentation, rhinoplasty, and eyelid surgery along with filler and Botox on occasion. I look natural, like myself but better. One thing I appreciate is I've asked for things I thought I needed and Dr Chung has told me that what I was asking for wouldn't look good for reasons which he'd explain. He is honest and will tell you that sometimes a treatment may not work how you want it and I appreciate that. You can't stop the aging process, but you can work with what you have to be the best version of yourself and Dr Chung helps me do this. I feel lucky to be one of his patients and l always look forward to seeing him.

Looks great! I have been considering this... how long before you stiches came out?
It was exactly 7 days. It's now been several months from the procedure and I still look like myself just refreshed
Thank you!
Wow! Amazing work. I am looking into doing this as well. I'm 33 but have saggy upper eyelid skin. It's always been that way but has definitely worsened since I've hit 30! Getting a consult with a top specialist in San Diego. You look amazing!
Good luck! This is very much worth it. Best $3400 spent. There will be days during healing that you question your decision to do this as the eyes heal at different rates but just a few weeks later you will look fabulous!

20 days out with nice result

At 20 days with some light makeup on. Really pleased with results. I had some tightness in my eyes until a couple of days ago but that’s pretty much subsided. I go for my 3 week follow up tomorrow 11/30.

Beautiful
Thank you!
What did you have it done and how old r u
I had an upper blepharoplasty and I'm 40 years old.
Wowwww i have scheduled it for feb. im excited. Would u please tell me the recovery and how did u like it
So I posted some pics they are above in the review but recovery wasn't bad. I was swollen and did end up with minor bruising. I highly suggest getting pillows to sleep on to keep your head elevated to reduce swelling. Do not panic on days 3-5 because my lids looked droopy and I thought I made a mistake doing this but they looked normal after swelling went down.
I saw. I would freaked out after 3-5 days. Im so excited to do it. I have fat eyelids and they droopy. When the swelling went down? Do you have ig? I wanna ask more questions.
I do have IG I have the same user handle
