46 Years Old and Tired of People Telling Me I Look Tired All the Time!

I am a healthy active person and eat well, exercise and take care of myself, but I have become frustrated with being told I look tired all the time (which we all know we interpret as "you look terrible"). After a few years and much thought and research I decided to have Lower Lid Transconjunctival Blepharoplasty to my baggy lower eyelids. I am a bit nervous but am hoping for positive results!

Day after surgery
Today has gone pretty well. I only needed to take one pain pill yesterday and so far have just been a bit puffy and a little sore. I also have a bit of soreness in my hips where some fat was taken to transfer to my lower lid, cheek area. All in all it has not been too bad. I will continue to update as healing progresses.

Thank you! I sure hoping for it. Took me so long to work up the nerve to go through with the procedure. I do think it is going to be worth it in the long run... and wow... you look great!

Thanks so much for sharing on RealSelf. I agree with everyone, you look amazing already! I can absolutely relate to how you felt before getting the surgery and having everyone tell you how tired you look- so annoying! Keep us posted on your healing progress :)

You look great after only 1 day after surgey! It will get better and better. You will be so glad you did it. It is amazing that you didn't swell or bruise too much. Would love to see some pics a few weeks down the track too. Fab result!

Two days post op
Two days post surgery and the bruising has set in a bit more, still not too bad but more noticeable than yesterday. I started my lower lid exercises and have had very little seeping from either eye. My hips are pretty sore today, had a hard time sleeping last night because they are pretty tender. I have a follow up next week and will update then. I am pretty happy with things so far! Thank you for the kind words and encouragement!
