Transconjunctival Lower Bleph with Fat Transfer - Greenbrae, CA

hey Asia! thanks it your comment. I actually did have a lower blepharoplasty AND a fat transfer. if it has just been. at transfer, I’d be considering surgery. I’m just annoyed I went through all that and it’s like 50% better, not 90%. I didn’t expect perfection but I thought it would be better than this. Ultimately, I’m not a rich person and I saved money to pay for this in cash. Blah blah life is short and there are more important things in life, I know ;) I gave thought about lip augmentation too but afraid it wouldn’t look right on my face. For now, I’m focusing on working out and getting into the best shape of my life. If the bags still bug me once I reach my goal weight, I might do something more drastic again. Ahhhh!!!! I’ll see if my doc will do a revision for free, if not, I’ll just start focusing on the lower facelift I plan to have in the next five years. ;) Since I was about 30, I knew I’d get a lower blepharoplasty and a lower facelift by my early 50s. nothing drastic, just fighting gravity to stay as young looking as I feel.

Im there with you girl!I just did a lip lift, and a top eye lift,both im very happy with so far,I was going to do the bottom eye lift like you,but my doc said its best to do it with laser for now ,and when I do face lift it will pull the under eye to the sides and than we can cut that extra skin.I however dont have bags ,otherwise I would do the surgery now like you .Theres got to be something to get those bags out,do you know if he took the fat from there while doing the surgery or just pulled the skin up?

Oh,I see,so he did take the fat form the unedr eye,and still didnt help,usually that does the trick for the bags but than later on leaves the eye looking hollow,go figure ,happend to my sis .Yes,talk to him, it was way to short lived I think.

Sorry, but what I MEANT to say is.. It sucks that the treatment didn't work to your liking. The treatment did however resolve most of your undereye issue and I think you look great regardless. :-). (Sorry, but I was loopy from my meds this week. I don't want to come across as rude!)

Thanks so much for the kind words. I appreciate it. The vanity stuff sucks but I waited half my life to do this silly thing and I guess I wanted it 'perfect.' Nothing there. Just flat to the cheekbone. I do hear that people have to go back for a touchup because the body does absorb some of the fat back. Not a big deal to get some fat injected, it's not a whole new surgery so that's a good thing. Right now it's not buy top concern anyway. I can wait a bit. :) How's your recovery going?? Hope well! Damn I miss Bernie. Did you see his single payer plan today?? Gotta love him! Cheers :)

Thanks SO much. I haven't been on here in a while. So busy! It's nice to see such nice comments. Getting older as a woman in this society (or any society!) ain't easy. We are so hard on ourselves. I am so much harder on myself than anyone else. I see women of all ages, all shapes and sizes and I can see their beauty - inner and outer - I'd never be as cruel to them as I am to myself. Gotta work on that ;) Cheers to you! And thanks again. :)

Thank you so much, very kind of you to comment. It's nice to read this. Makes me feel better and less concerned about this bs! HAHA! Life is too short to obsess about stuff, I suppose. And I was never perfect anyway. Not sure who is...!

Yes, I have seen that, too. A friend of mine (went to same surgeon as I did) had to go back to get some more fat. So maybe I just need a little more fat in there. ;) Maybe I'll give it to myself for my birthday, a year later :) Thanks for the kind words.
