I had lower eye lid surgery day. I'm home. It's been 5 hours since surgery. I feel in pain. I refused to take an painkillers. So far has been. I need for it. My face looks like it was kicked around a few times.. see pictures below. As of now I have idea if it's worth it or now. I have a lot of swelling. My eye sight is slightly blurry. My favs is stiff. Hard to blink. Wish me luck! I'll keep posting.

This is my second surgery with Dr. Commons. I can't image going to another doctor. I trust him because he is so experienced. He never once made me feel uncomfortable. He simply listened to what I had to say with no Judgement and did has never pressured me into anything or try to up sell me by pointing other "problem areas" like other doctors. So far I am still healing from my surgery, but so far so good.

Although you are early on, it's looking good so far! Would you mind sharing some more details? Did you have fat removal or repositioning? Do you know if you had a transconjunctival blepharoplasty or the transcutaneous method? Thanks!

What type of anesthesia did they use? Do you remember anything? My doctor uses local anesthesia with iv sedation. I'm nervous about waking up and panicking. What was your experience.

Today my eyes are a lot more swallow. Still no pain. No blurry vision. I went to visit my surgeon. He said icing my eyes will reduce the swelling. I think his right. After I ice my eyes, the swelling seems reduce. Not as red. Here are the photos.
