I think your eyes look great, but we always find sth...I am also not happy with my results, but I will wait at least one year to decide what to do...because we also need to get used to a new look...it is hard though....
I think you look great too. I'm not sure I can see the asymmetry you're seeing but we're always our own worst critic. I'm about 5 weeks post op now and I see a little asymmetry but my eyes look a little different week to week, not in a bad way. I feel like my right eye needs a little more ptosis repair. This was really noticeable 1-2 weeks ago and not so much now. If anything, I think I want my creases a little higher but I'm going to wait it out at least a year. You eyes look really pretty :)
I think u did Your surgery after me and you look completely healed on week 3. I don't know why I am 8 weeks tomorrow and my scar still looks so angry. My lid is so dry because my doctor told me not to use anything. Is that right?
My scar is not the problem. I was told to put vitamin E oil on it every night and that has worked well.
Hi, I am about 2 days out and was wondering if you still have some numbness on your eyelids. Also, do you have any 1-5 day(s) post-op pics?

3 months post-op

It has been 3 months and my eyelids are still uneven and swollen a little . I'm not gonna say that I hate my eyes but to be honest the asymmetry is still really bothering me, I'm starting to think that by the 6th month mark my skin will drop more and my eyelids will be hiding behind the skin again,like how they were before surgery :(

P/s: I'm not blaming it on my surgeon, I think my eyes have too much extra skin n fat. Thingking about a revision in a couple of months.
I can relate!
It is disappointing for sure. To get rid of the puffiness I even bought that Pearl by Clarisonic at $200. It didn't work after 30 days so I returned it. Hohom. Meanwhile, I am trying to sleep elevated and now have harmed my shoulder. It is all a challenge.

7weeks post op,requested by cali808

My eyes are stil alil swelling,but i love them,just wish they were more even.
As you can see here,they are stil asymmetric,the inner corner part of my left eyelid is smaller than the right one and i like the right eye better.

Looks really nice. A lot of the swelling did come down from your first post and I'm sure it will keep getting better. Thank you for the update!
I think you look great! how are u going now?
