It has been quite a while since I've posted so I thought I would post one more 'healed' picture at just over 9 weeks. I am extremely pleased with my outcome and thrilled that I gave myself this gift. Not only do I look more awake, I even feel more awake!
The small fat pads that were visible several weeks ago have pretty much all but disappeared. I expect with time they will be completely gone. They are hardly noticeable anymore. Would be wonderful to not have to have a revision and it looks like I'm moving in that direction :)
Best of wishes for successful surgeries and quick recoveries to all!

I'm no expert but I don't think any revision is necessary. They both look really wide and wrinkle and bag free. No wonder you are pleased. One more thing.....you look as lovely with the hair pulled back as with it down ....no need to hide anymore. Try a new style!

How helpful your words are! I am getting my eyes upper and lower done Sept 11th and have a decent idea of the recovery and hope for the result because your story was so helpful and real. I think you are lovely! The eyes are the window to the soul and yours are beautifully framed. Your comment about taking the time and spending the money on ourselves being important is true too. Thank you!

The week has been a good one. Really doing little for my eyes now other than gently cleaning and applying the SkinMedica products. Also making sure to put on SPF when going outside.
I have been wearing full makeup to work. I'm amazed every time I look into the mirror and see the person staring back at me-- no more bags!
I definitely think this surgery was worth it for me :)
Posting two pictures with makeup - one with hair pulled up and one with hair down (how I usually wear it)

Thank you SO much for sharing your experience and especially posting photos. I am also pretty sure I'm going to have this done at some point and you're story really helped me feel better about my decision. Also, just wanted to warn you about buying products on Amazon.com, especially high priced ones ... there are not always the same product. Better to be sure and buy your creams at a reputable store rather than over the internet. You never know what you're going to get. You look great!
