Just had my lower blephroplasty today. Eyes are bruised and swollen. Pain is not bad! Dr. Rosing and his surgical team are amazing. Because of the swelling and bruising can't say how they will look when they heal, I can see that the wrinkles and bulges are so much better now. From the anesetheoligist to the Nurses and Dr Rosing were wonderful.. So caring and professional!

Looks like you are going to have a great result!! It's also encouraging to hear that the pain is not bad!! I'm scheduled for upper/lower at the end of June and I'm already so nervous about it!! Seeing these good results on this site is SO helpful!! Continued good healing to you :)

Did you have general anesthesia? I'm supposed to for my upper/lower bleph at the end of June. I'm a little freaked out about that part. Did your surgeon go into details about what he did to lower eyelids?? Were the fat pads removed or just repositioned?? Did he re-drape the muscle and tack it to the outer bone above corner of eyes?? And did he also remove extra skin?? These are the things my surgeon is telling me will happen during my lower. I think from what I can find, uppers are pretty straightforward and "easy" for surgeons, but lowers are harder to get right. I think your lowers are looking so good at this point!!! Your results are gonna be great!! :-) Please keep us posted on your continued recovery and post pics of those pretty eyes when you are all healed please?? :-) Thanks in advance for any insight into how your lowers were done!!

I was under general anesthesia! I wouldn't have done it any other way.. That was the first questions i asked! Did not want do it with a local.. He was very thorough when I had my consult.. I haven't spoke with him since the surgery.. I get my stitches out next Tiesday, so I will find out exactly what he did, I will let you know

Were you able to find out anything from doc about the specifics of your procedure?? Was any skin removed?? We're fate pads removed or repositioned?? And did he re-drape the muscle?? These are things my surgeon is saying will be done during my lower Blepharoplasty. Your results look great!!
