Bye Bye Eye Bags! This Was the BEST Thing I Have Ever Done for Myself, EVER! - Raleigh, NC

WORTH IT
I started to notice the bags under my eyes in my early 40's (I'm 47 now)- and I became self-conscious of it when I would see myself in pictures. I drink a lot of green juice and water, and I use great skincare, but the bags, specifically the bag under my left eye was pretty bad. I had a neck lift by Dr. Law six months prior to this procedure, and I tried fat grafting first (because it was less evasive), but when I went in for my six month check up for the neck, I was unhappy with my eyes, so I decided to just go for it, and boy am I glad I did.
Just like with the neck lift, there was NO pain at all with this - it just looked bad because I am so fair. I rarely wear makeup now, and I am so happy with the way I look (exactly the same, minus the bag). He did a canthoplasty at the same time, to prevent drooping, and I was concerned I wouldn't look like myself, BUT I Do!
I was much less nervous the second time around because I was so happy with the lower face lift Dr. Law performed and I completely trusted him.
If you are considering this, do NOT hesitate :)

Looks great! Was that fat removed or repositioned? Did you have local anesthesia? I want to have lower eyelid surgery but I'm scared as heck! Lol
It was removed and yes, general anesthesia. I LOVE IT! Don't be scared, it was easy :)
Thank you for responding. I was told that the fat will need to be removed. I have a choice to go under local or general anesthesia but I'm afraid to be up while the procedure in being performed. The doctor mentioned that I'll be just fine under local but I don't feel that way. I think I'll do but under general. Thanks!
How much did your procedure cost and did you have any fat fillers ?
Thx
I believe it was in the 5-6k range. No fillers :)

Your results look great! Thanks so much for sharing on RealSelf.

Hi. Did you post photos before your eye surgery? I've been wanting to do this for years! Had a consult recently with Winston Salem PLadtic Surgery thinking I should visit a view others.
Yes, my before picture is above (the picture with two images), my before is the top pic, you can see my left eye was bad)
Were you awake during the procedure? How long did the blepharoplasty take to do?
No, general anesthesia...and I believe less than two hours.
You look great!!
Thank you :)
