Upper Bleph and Endolift for Lower Eyes Are Worth It

My eyes were looking so tired all the time so I took the plunge 5 weeks ago and got upper eye blepharoplasty. The doctor decided laser would be better for the lower eye area. Having bags under my eyes was also making me look tired and older. I decided to get endolift done 12 days ago on the lower eye area. So far I am very pleased with both procedures.

I had a lot of swelling with the bleph and reacted to the stitches so had to get them out after 6 days instead of 7.
It did not look good at all for the first 10 days and I was glad I didn’t have anything planned and could take time to recover.

The swelling with the endolift lasted longer than I expected and there can still be a bit of swelling initially in the mornings which wears off throughout the day. I was able to go out though the day after the endolift and have used mineral makeup to cover any redness.

Both procedures have caused temporary numbness. My eyelids are still a little numb at points. The same under my eyes but there is a little Improvement daily. I am using scar cream on my upper eye scars and massaging the little lumps which resulted from where the stitches were. They have all but disappeared already.

I am doing a lymphatic massage daily on the lower eye area which is helping with the swelling I think.
