You look great!! I had mine done 12/23/15 and I am very glad that I didi. My bags looked similar to yours. My right eye still gets a little swollen, but I am not bothered by it at all. I periodically apply arnica gel to my lower lids if they seem more swollen and that really helps. Also watching my salt intake helps too.

Thanks! Yeah my right eye has a tiny bit of swelling but gets better every day the red is now gone.

Hung out with some friends no one noticed anything different other than I was told my skn looked really nice. The best part about this surgery is that you still look like you, but like you just finally got some rest.

OMG you look Fabulous!!I want to get this done badly!! How long was recovery?How much this cost? I live 2 hours away from San Antonia. Thanks.

Thank you! I feel fabulous. It's so worth doing. Recovery was super easy. I had the procedure done Thursday and was back to work on Monday. Cost was 5k, this included having the procedure done in a hospital under general anesthesia. It's a little cheaper if you elect to have the procedure done in office under local anesthesia. I wanted to be out though!!! Lol

Is this procedure permanent or can the bags return?

I mean I suppose they could years from now. They are basically fat deposits that seeped out from behind my orbital muscles.
