It is just toooo early to see any results...i got mine done (transconjuctival blepharoplasty) on May 07, 2015 and still have another few months before i see my final results. For me it took one month for the 80% of the swelling to go down. I am pleased with the results so far. Be patient , i am sure you will love the results

It's crazy because I'm 30 with inherited eye bags as well. I'm scared but I'm tired of looking tired when I'm not. My questions are how much, does it hurt, now long is the swelling, does it truly work?

My swelling has gone down alot like 70% and I can honestly say I have no eye pain at all..the only discomfort I felt has started today which is a little itch and soreness ..like when I close them or look too far sides it feels like straining....that kind of discomfort but other than that ...its so cool how I didnt feel pain ..and now I am starting to look more refreshed ill share more pics soom of before and after ok ...I say go for it...and dr.vitenas is wonderful...my husband says I look so much younger without those dreadful hereditarybags

I had mine April 29th, but with a mini lift. Still some swelling at my temples where the 2 procedures met, but hardly any bruising and swelling has gone down considerably. Just like you one side of my face is healing faster than the other. Very little makeup now to cover what used to be an all day affair! Very pleased with the outcome, can't wait to see the final product, just need to be patient! Happy healing!

Gurl, your eye bags are non existent! I love your results! I am 31, with ugly bags, I am too scared to do any sort of treatment.

Thank you hun! I love my results also..I dreaded my bags when I had them nothing could cover them up...mine were hereditary..I was scared for surgery but after 7 years of thinking I wish I would have done this the 1st month of thinking it was easy recovery no pain at all and fast ..I recommend if you have heridetary bags go for it dont do the same mistake as I did in waiting !!!!

I'm thinking of doing the same was there a lot of bruising and swelling for you and how long did it take for you to finally go out in public without people noticing? Thanks!!!

I actually went out in public the next day after surgery but with huge shades on. I recommend staying indoors the first 3 days because the wind is aggravating.. im sure if I did remove my eye shades people would notice but it just looked as if I had some serious pink eye couldnt tell I had blepharoplasty surgery lol...bruising I still have which is 6 days and its not bad just a little as for swelling only on my right eye and its not bad at all makeup covers it...

You look great! I hope you post a picture after about six weeks. I am sure it will be amazing! How was the actual surgery? Most people say it's nothing, except for
the numbing shots.

I'm thinking about doing this but I'm so scared that something may go wrong and Change my looks, small eyes, or Chinese eyes, or even worse bags, please post more pics.

Sorry for late reply have you done it yet? I feel that if you have hereditary eyebags it's so worth getting this procedure done. If not try another method unless it doesn't work than its best to get eyebags removed. I was scared also but after doing it I wish I had done it sooner! Best of luck
