I have THEE MOST awful dark circles and bags under my eyes! My eyes have always been this way, but over the last five years has gotten much worse...so it's time to do something about it! There is NO eye cream or topical solution on the planet that can give me the results I want. I am expecting to have my under eye area improved and have fat transfer to my cheeks. I am hoping that this will give my eyes a smoother, more rested appearance and add more volume to my cheeks.

Here is my before pic...I forgot to include on my original post/review. The aging process has caused my cheeks to droop, making my eyes look darker and more sunken in over the years.

I'm hoping to achieve a more refreshed look after my sx (lower belph) and fat transfer to my cheeks to give me a fuller appearance.

In my before pic, you will notice that my eyes aren't "perfectly" aligned, one is lower than the other. This has become more pronounced as I've gotten older and I don't plan on addressing it, that's one of my flaws I can live with. :-)
SMOOCHES!

Congratulations on having what you want to have done! I really hope everything turns out as planned. I've seen very successful lower Blephs so i'm sure your's will be successful also. You also have what's called Ptosis, where the eyelid droops lower causing one eye to look smaller than the other. I've always had it but I didn't think it would bother me after my upper Bleph. But the surgery opened up my left eye so much that it's really noticeable and it really bothers me now.

Thank you! Mine doesn't really bother me very much...at least for now. I have several other areas to address. :-)

Have you had your surgery yet? If so how are you feeling? It's probably to early to tell if you will be pleased with your results especially if you bruised very badly like I did. I would love to know how you're feeling.

Yes, I had my surgery on July 13. I'm swollen, I look like I've been in a pretty good fight! :-) I can't really tell if I like my results yet or not. I'm feeling okay, not a lot of pain as I expected, its more like pressure and the area where I got the injections are still numb and tingling.
