Have Wanted to Do This Since I Was 40 - 14 Years Later - WOW - Scottsdale, AZ

ORIGINAL POST

This was the biggest no deal I've ever had done....

This was the biggest no deal I've ever had done. I've had DENTAL work that was worse. OMG - I'm SO happy!!! First, I had the procedure done at Dr. Maffi's office in Scottsdale. He did my sister's eye surgery - upper and lower and it looks fantastic. So I just really needed blephroplasty. I am SERIOUS. I have had mole removal that was more stressful. In just over 30 minutes, I was in a chair, getting numbed - just slightly more burning than Botox. Then covering me, measuring, cutting, cauterizing and voila! New lids! I took a Valium and 1/2 a Pecoset before the procedure and just relaxed me enough to not be nervous. The staff was so pleasant and it was just a non-event. Seriously. My friend said, "You're done already? You feel O.K.?" That's because it was only 30 minutes later. I was absolutely fine. Came home and rested w/peas on my eyes for the next 8 hours while listening to NPR. I had some slight pain for about the first 4 hours and took the other half of the Percoset. As of yesterday, less than 12 hours later, I have almost no bruising - even two days later. I have not much swelling, no discomfort, no dry eye. Just redness and swelling that will come from such a procedure. I can ALREADY see more as a result- literally more 180 sight as a result of the eye tissue not being there. I'm so happy. I can't wait to keep posting pics. I am ecstatic.

Wow. Your eyes look great! ! I had mine done 16 days ago with other facial procedures and I am still swelled. My daughter told me I look freakish. Great for you. I can only hope after everything settles mine will be nice too.

Wow!! You look fabulous!! I had mine done on the 11th and it was a non issue. I also had a mini lift with augmentation. I am on day three with lots of pain meds for the BA. If I only had the eyes it would have been a snap. Glad you are healing so well. Did you take Arnica? I have very little brusing so I am assuming it is because of the Arnica. Keep updating us :)

Aw thanks - I feel fantastic and look 10 years younger - in a simple, in-office 30 minute surgical procedure that - for ME - produced NO pain, discomfort or any other reason I would not recommend this to ANYONE...

Nic job, I had my eyes done upper by Dr. Michel Desvigne out of Scott's dale and he made a fish tail cut instead of the traditional eyelid cut. Needless to day I have mor wrinkles in the corners of my eyes now, messed up, I must of been a ginnie pig. No revisions included in price, thief.
