WORTH IT$2,200
I would 100% do these procedures again. I am thrilled with the results.I look like my self again not worn down and tired. Minimal discomfort during and after procedure despite local anesthesia. I had significant swelling that greatly diminished within 3 days. I had the procedure on a Monday then returned to work wearing glasses and mascara the following Monday.

Oh wow!!! You look great!!! Beautiful job on your eyes!!! And he fixed the scar on your forehead!! This makes me want to come see him in Texas for my surgery!! Thanks so much for sharing!!! Congrats!!!
Thank you:) You are very welcome. Keep us updated!
Almost forgot, the nurse woke me up at the end of surgery and showed me all of the fat they removed. It was disgustingly cool! Lol
I'm up getting ready to go for pre-open appt and to pay. I hate needles and I'm freaking out a life that when I have this done in 3 weeks what if he doesn't do a good job!!!??? I am seriously having second thoughts :( I'm just scared....
You can do it:)

Really pretty! Thank you so much for sharing. Do you have any recovery tips for others going through an upper or lower bleph soon?

You are sweet! I had local anesthesia with valium prior to surgery so my down time was minimal. Keep acetaminophen on hand for .in or discomfort, keep your head elevated at night and plan to use a cool compared for a couple of days then switch to hear. Ask for free samples of Mederma to facilitate healing and prevent scarring. Best wishes!
Sorry for typos. Tablet won't let me correct:(

Oooh, I love free samples! Great tips, thank you.

I made it thru the bloodwork today just fine and had my pre-op and doc was very reassuring and answered all my questions, so this girl is a GO for upper/lowers and some tummy lipo on June 27!!! I can't thank you enough for your review and words of encouragement!! Also, on a whim, I got Juvederm in my lips today!!! And I love love love it so far!!! I'm so glad I saw your post and how gorgeous your results are!!! That helped me a lot so thank you!!! I will be keeping my review updated to let you know how it turns out!! I'm thinking positive thoughts and looking forward to being on the other side of this surgery and looking as pretty as you!! :)
Awww.... you're too sweet! I was thinking about Juvederm in my smile lines. Did it hurt and are results instantaneous? I bet you look great!!! I'm so glad I could ease your worries- I had the exact same ones. You are going to look even more fabulous!
He put numbing cream on before and no it did not hurt I just felt like pressure where he was injecting. The results were instant and I hope they stay this plump!! I took a before pic and will put afters tomorrow. It's been a long day today but I will start a review on the lip Juvederm tomorrow :). So far I totally recommend it!!! Will update with pics tomorrow. Thanks girl!!!! Again, I really appreciate you!!
Can't wait to see!!!!
Beautiful results!
Thank you!!!
You are gorgeous! Do you have any pics while recovering? And any tips for recovery? Surgery for upper 7/8/16. Ty. You must be 100% thrilled with results!!!
You are too sweet! And makeup is amazing! I do have recovery pics. Is there a way I can attach them here?
You are going to love your results. I feel so much better about myself:)
You can click on "Update Review" and upload the pics and any comments/captions.
I am SO hoping my results turn out as great as yours!!! Sadly I usually have bad luck with most every procedure I've ever had :(. I'm trying to think positive about my upcoming upper and lower blepharoplasy though... My eyes look so bad right now that in wearing fake glasses to hide behind. I look forward to seeing your recovery pics.
When are you scheduled Tab? 6/26 or 27? Ninergal91, hope it just get better and better! Beautiful. BTW, the PS' office said to stop Latisse two weeks before surgery, and not to start again for a month post. Just a heads up for everyone that uses Latisse, or similar product.
Thank you!!!!
I am scheduled for June27, so I'm starting the 10 day countdown tomorrow!!
