Davis & Pyle Sealed the Deal - Raleigh, NC

8 Weeks
On Christmas morning my daughter presented her signature gift - a calendar featuring family photos from the year. I love this gift and all it represents. For the past few years, though, I’ve realized my favorite months are those without pictures of me. Instead of enjoying the moments and memories those photos capture, I hone in on my heavy, tired eyelids. This year wasn’t so different until I realized my eyes in our “Ode to 2016 Calendar” no longer matched the ones I’ll be looking through in 2017. Still, old habits die hard and I needed a bit of reassurance. I pulled out my phone to double check the pictures taken the night before on Christmas Eve. A Christmas gift indeed! Eight weeks since my surgery, my eyes look open, rested, and ready for the sights. So, here’s to me for taking the plunge, and here’s to Davis & Pyle’s Dr. Wood for their skill and support. My resolution this year is to make changes where I can and where I want. I hope yours is to do the same. If those changes are physical, I recommend turning to Davis & Pyle. You deserve it. Happy New Year!

Second Pre-op
I'm checking in with my an update on my second post-op visit. I am feeling so frisky and hopeful and happy with my surgery that I decided I would try something new. Here goes . . .
I went to Davis & Pyle on Monday for my second post-op.
The staff's warm greeting made my heart pop.
Drs. Davis and Wood were oh so kind;
In fact they reported that I looked sublime.
(OK, OK. They said my recovery was on schedule and I was healing just right,
but I do look sublime in just the right light.)
Even with some swelling and a bruise or two,
my eyes make me want to yell woo-hoo!
I look more like the me that I imagine -
I'm a red sports car, not an old station wagon.
Unfortunately my eyes didn't do much for my rhymes or my poems,
But they've done a lot for my confidence. Now I'll get goin'.
Thanks Dr. Wood!

Looks like your healing is coming along well! I am around five months out and for me it has actually taken that long to see the results most people see in 1 month so hang in there!! I still have swelling near my lash line that will not go away until I am 1 year out so it just really takes longer for some people - congrats again! I hope you will see slight improvements along the way to keep you motivated :)

Congratulations on your fabulous result, and thank you so much for sharing your story!
