Looking great! Just a Little redness along the suture line but that’s it. Still healing doctor
Says it can take up to 6
Months, but I really barely notice it. No one had questioned it, but there is a definite improvement.

Looking amazing! Still no makeup on my eyes but I’m looking forward to seeing how it looks now without the hooding! Most of all the bruising is gone and swelling is minimal. I went out today and I don’t think anyone notices except me.

Hi you look great!!! How much time did u take off work to recuperate bc of fatigue eyestrain etc? I work from home on the computer so just wondering. Thanks!
Hi there and thanks so much :) I feel great and look so much better, atleast to me I do lol I took off for 1 week. First few days were difficult to go in the sun with it being so bright and tired eyes but it resolved rather quickly. My bruising resolved as well. No one even noticed or asked me anything. I did have a few more
Days of puffiness but nothing crazy. The whole experience was rather quick. It’s been about 6 weeks and I don’t even barely see the scar except for a little redness at the line.

Dr. Gordon was everything the reviews said he would be! He was very knowledgeable, professional, honest, and caring. He offers a caring bedside manner many doctors lack today. He called multiple times after the procedure to check on me as well as answered my call right away when I had some questions before and after the surgery. He is truly amazing!

Wow! Your eyes look great! I too have hooded sagging eye lids. AM going to get them fixed later this month.
Thank you so much! I always had hooded lids and It’s something I always disliked on me, it’s a small but nice change
Your results are fantastic; very natural but definitely a big difference overall. I'll bet you are thrilled.
Did your doctor do the procedure under twilight sedation or were you under anesthesia? Any idea what the recovery time will be?
My eyes are like yours in the before photo. I've been doing some Botox brow lifts, trying to lift my eyelids for a few years now and to no avail. I need to begin researching doctors and techniques but am thrilled to see such a wonderful outcome for you on here. It gives me hope and inspiration that I can do this one day. Thank you for posting.
Hi there :) thanks so much for the kind words. I am absolutely thrilled with the outcome and recovery so far. Its only been 9 days and u can barely see my scar. I only used local injection to numb area and took a Valium. I know it seems scary but it wasn’t bad at all, only felt the needle for injection. I’m not gonna lie sometimes I look in the mirror and feel like it’s not me so it’s gonna take some gettin used to. If this is what you wanna do I say do it for you. Just do research and find a doctor you trust :) wishing you all the best!
