Definitely a big before and after difference. You look great. I'm at one month and all bruising is gone. There is a considerable about of numbness and a little swelling. I put eyeliner and mascara on. Hopefully, not a mistake as I'm still healing.

dbm! I am at one month and a few days now, and it STILL burns my eyes to wear any mascara or eyeliner. I decided to stop trying until AFTER I see my DR on the 10th. (3 more days!) Might just be too soon for me- everyone will be different, I'm sure.

The swelling is almost 100% gone, and I have been wearing eye makeup and getting lots of great comments! I'm super happy!!

I think we need another review update, any changes since your last post?  Do you still have any residual swelling?  Let us know :)

After receiving the above progress email, I was able to load my pics of my eyelid surgery. Thank you so much for being supportive to taxes1. I'm happy with my results except I thought the lower lids could have been better. I have some festoons and he said he tried to work on them. However I am happy with results. Sandy

You look fantastic! I also didn't think the lower bleph was that beneficial! I plan to post an update with some pics soon. It's been a year, and my scar is a little tiny bit bumpy still, it might just be the way my skin heals. I'm working with Whitney to get it to flatten out a bit more- she prescribed some stuff to put on it, but, I haven't gone and gotten it yet, so that tells you how serious of a thing it is... not really too serious! My doc has been great, and all the staff here too.

I LOVE it. You are both looking amazing. Taxes101, I'd love to see your post op 1 year...the lids look so good even after a week. What a difference. Has your day to day changed at all?

First...my deepest apologies!! I meant to post an update a lot sooner than this! To catch everyone up... I am right around a month out now and I am very pleased so far! I am still swollen under eyes, and above my cheek area, and there is still some bruising and slight bags. Some days they seem worse than other days, but, I can tell more healing is taking place each day. I took a photo at the 3 week mark on the 26th of Sept., and got too busy to post it!! I will upload it today. I decided to try makeup that day, and I decided to go with purple eye shadow..it sorta blends in with the scarring! HA... My eyelids are still numb, so it was a bit of a strange sensation- and I guess it's too soon for eyeliner and mascara because within minutes my eyes started burning like crazy! I will wait another week or so and then try again. But, look at the difference with my eyelids from before! I have my follow-up appt with the Dr. on Thursday, the 10th.

Nothing new to report, except this is a photo of Day 8 ! I am still swollen and yellow, but, I fully expected it to be this way, and worse! Stitches scars are flattening a bit each day. Eyes are not as itchy anymore, but, I DO feel swelled up throughout my whole face and eyes.
