18 month photo

From passport photo aka least flattering image possible, taken two days ago. Ptosis still alive and well, vision worse in this eye, and it's prone to unpredictable swings between scratchy dryness and "let's test that foundation" watering. Looking around RealSelf it seems ptosis can be quite recalcitrant, so thinking about trying another procedure.

It's been 18 months!

Still worth it? Yep.
Problems since last update: zero.
Perfect results? Er, no....
Do it again? In a heartbeat.

Ptosis hasn't improved as much as I hoped. Would have liked 70-80%, but guessing it's in the 40-50% range. Oddly, not terribly disappointed though, it's still night and day looking at before and afters. Plastic surgeon recently evened up the brows with Botox, so thats a help.

Not to be outdone, the other eye has something funky going on just near the start of the moveable lid. Two tiny puckers of skin developed at around the one year mark. Much less noticeable with a bit of makeup, much more noticeable in a 10x mirror:)

Wasn't expecting:
More crocodile skin. All that loose skin snuggling up pre surgery concealed how lined and cross hatched the lid was. No more! Seems their days in the shade are over. Again, 10x is frightful, but necessary to avoid blinding myself with lash curlers and mascara wands, although I give blinding myself a good nudge anyway some days...

Will post some pics in the next little while.

Botox Wasn't Fun

Well tomorrow's six weeks since surgery, and it was time to top up the Botox and hide that scowling, frighten little children frown thing I do all the time. Those little stings above the arch of the brow? They're much bigger stings when they hit "SURPRISE!!! you didn't know I was here" swelling. Wouldn't have gone for another few weeks but I'm on a schedule for my son's wedding in March. And yes, I know how that sounds:) The things we do...

Very pleased with his work, and staff are importantly, both friendly and professional. Day 7 Coda: Poor man came in even though he was ill to remove sutures (surgical nurse could've handled it), and check infection site (already under treatment from GP). This is above and beyond what I expect and what I've experienced in the past. (Following a complicated, open, hip replacement it was disconcerting and more than a little frightening to be left without specialist support following rehospitalisation for a rare and unpleasant complication). Dr. Davies and his meticulous, capable, caring team demonstrate optimum patient centred pratice that's robust enough to withstand unscheduled, inconvenient challenge.
