Sorry for my bad english... Going for eyelid surgery in 11 days and nervous. Would like to read more on male that had this surgery. I choose a facial plastic surgeon so i know he is specialized only for faces. Hope the change wouldn't be to drastic ! Again, sorry for my bad english. Waiting for your comments. Thank you.

Your surgery is pretty routine, so I think you should expect great results. Many people on realself have reported problems with too much fat removal around the eyes, so just make sure that the doctor doesn't remove too much fat which results in a hollow look.

Yes, I agree with elainey, make sure you let the doctor know that u want minor skin removal of upper eyelid and minimum removal of fat on lower eyelid to avoid hollow look. It's better to be less than too much removal, because you can always go back to remove more than too much removed and can't put back what it's being removed. Good luck on your surgery!

DON'T DO IT. YOU WILL REGRET IT. YOU WILL LOOK LIKE A DIFFERENT PERSON AND NOT IN A GOOD WAY. READ THIS OVER AND OVER AND CANCEL THE SURGERY. LIVE WITH THE EYES YOU HAVE

I am giving you the best advice you will ever want. After the surgery when you're crying and contemplating suicide you're going to wish you took my advice. you won't look younger you will just look weird and different. you won't even recognize yourself and you will wear dark glasses everywhere. there's not a day that goes by that I don't wish that I could have my old baggy eyes back. I had my surgery a couple years ago I'm 48 years old now. I'm just trying to help

I had pain for only about 30 minutes after the surgery- then no more. More the inconvenience of icing, sleeping with head raised, massaging the scar line with oil- just a bit of work, but all worth it!
