2nd Blepharoplasty with Plexr
Yesterday there was quite a bit of swelling. I continued to use ice packs and vaseline along with copper peptide. Also took ibuprofen every 6 hours. Significantly decreased the swelling

Hello - its encouraging that this non-surgical treatment can reduce the excess eyelid skin for you! During the first 2 days when putting ice packs on lids to reduce swelling, can you go out or go to work, or does it need 2 days at home please>?

It depends on how you respond to treatment. I had the next day at home due to the swelling, but was back at work the day after. Due to the swelling, your eyes feel very tight and in my case they were swollen almost completely shut. Hence the icepacks and ibuprofen. The swelling decreases, but you still look like you went 3 rounds with Rocky. Still very worth it!

I had my second session today. It was pretty much the same as the first. I have begun the swelling process and the best thing to do is apply vaseline and applying icepacks. as the icepacks wont stick to the skin while the vaseline is applied. Ice packs get cold very quickly so applying them for a minute at a time is fine. I am very happy with the reults as I can see the lift almost immediately. I highly recommend having this done.

Great tip about the vaseline, I've never heard that before. If you wrap the icepack in a washcloth it will help with the too cold feeling and protect your skin. Thanks for posting more pics- they are super helpful!

May I ask if the results have are still holding? If you are still happy with the treatment?
I had a ptosis repair a little over than a year ago on both eyes, but there is excess skin on the upper eyelids. I do not go under the knife again, due to the length of downtime required and out of fear of scarring.
I underwent the treatement 1 1/2 weeks ago, and I'm incredibly scared it wont blend into my natural skin tone again.
