Excellent job! I am 69 and wanted to decrease the dark circles accentuated by the bags under my eyes with as little anesthesia as possible. My surgery was performed as an outpatient in the Dr's office. I required only oral medication preoperatively. I barely remember the surgery at all as any pain was well controlled by the oral meds. I am very pleased with the results. The bags under my eyes are gone & I still have a very natural look. The incision lines are either not visible or blended within a facial line.

Very nice! How bad was the whole thing? Surgery and recovery?
Not bad. I used a lot of iced frozen vegetables in baggies or chipped ice. My surgery was done on a Friday & I returned to work 10 days(Monday) later. My bruising was easily covered with a small amount of makeup. I did receive all positive compliments from my coworkers! The week I was home The post op pain was adequately controlled with ice & pain medication.
Wow. were u awake during surgery? I am scared to death to get this done but I need it!
The oral medication that was prescribed made me very unaware & took care of most of the pain. Memory wise the surgery to me now is a big blurr.
You look beautiful!! Your surgeon did an amazing job on your lower eyes!! Do you know if she removed the fat pads, or just repositioned them?? Also, did she do any re-draping of the muscle to prevent hollows?? And lastly, did she remove any skin under your eyes?? I'm scheduled for upper/lower at the end of June and I'm getting nervous. My surgeon has thoroughly explained how my lowers will be done though. Fat pads will not be removed, but repositioned to make a smooth transition to cheek, muscle will be redraped and tacked to orbital bone to hold the fat in its new position, and some extra skin will be removed. This will all be done through an incision under my lower eyelashes. Does any of this sound similar to your procedure?? Again, you look great and congratulations on your fabulous results!! Also, congratulations on your retirement!!!
Thank you! And, yes she said she removed quite a bit of skin. No, fat pads were not removed. My incisions were under my lashes and transitioned within the fine line extending from the lateral corners of my eyes. I think you will be very happy after your blepharoplasty.
Thank you for the response!! Yes I've been wanting to have this done for years and I'm ready!! Sounds like my procedure will be very similar to yours!! I hope my results are as similar to yours!!! Thanks again!!
You're welcome! Good Luck! Let me know how it goes, but give it a few weeks!
You look lovely have you any before photos ?
