On January 28, 2016 I will be getting an endoscopic eyebrow lift, lower blepharoplasty, and CO2RE around my eyes. My Dr has very good reviews. He said 2mm on right eye and 3mm on left eye. Does anyone know what that means? I'm also concerned with how long recovery will take. I cannot sit for long and will want to go back to work ASAP. I'm taking a total of 10 days off. I will post pictures through my process!

I'm feeling good! My eyes burn a little from the laser. My Dr also did a skin pinch along with the lower blepharoplasty.

Good! I have just come from the dr and he said I needed a browlift and upper eyelid surgery. I am 72 and very nervous about the browlift. However, he said that the eyelid surgery alone will not resolve my issue. I am covered by my insurance and my optician recommended I see the dr. about this because I always see my eyelashes when reading, and see shadows around my eyes from the droopy skin. Hope to see all your posts.

Sorry to invade this post! I have the same problem as missyfit13 and for me a browlift is as important as the bleph. As we age the brow becomes heavier and the eyebrows and upper eyelids sink a little over our eyes.

Any idea why PS can do such great "eye opening" results on their male patients without the need (very rarely) for a brow lift? I am amazed at what they can accomplish is such a "tight space" with men but somehow can't do that with women. Look at fashion magazines and notice how low top model's brows are.

Thanks for sharing! I'm trying to understand what to expect & as they say - picture is worth a thousand words!

Your eyes are healing beautifully. Was the incision for the lower blepharoplasty inside your lower lids with the fat transferred into the tear troughs?
February 5, 2016
I believe he removed the fat and pulled the skin up(skin pinch). I will ask when I get my staples out.

You now have upper eyelids! Is that the the result from the endoscopic brow lift? Your eyes look such a lovely shape now...both upper and lower! Did you lose much hair from the brow lift, and how many incisions were made in your scalp?
February 7, 2016
Thank you! I had 4 incisions on the top and one on each temple. Over 30 staples. I lost no hair! The brow lift made my saggy upper lids disappear. My lower fat removal with skin pinch made my dark hollows disappear. My cheeks even look slightly raised. I'm a very happy girl!

Ice is my best friend. I only have minor discomfort. I go for a checkup tomorrow and will be able to wash my hair Sunday. I have several incisions that are stapled in my hair. One side is more swollen than the other.

You look great for it being your 2nd day out. I've had eyelid surgery so I know how that feels. I woke up while the doc was lasering lol. It hurt but he just numbed me back up and I went back to sleep. I can't wait to see your results later. I'm researching doctors now for my browlift
