it took quite some time for my eyes to settle down to a normal look, but keep in mind i had my nose done at the same time and i had an upper and lower done as well- (so a loooooot of facial surgery in one day)- but now that the swelling is gone, my eyes look natural and bright and I LOVE THEM!!! Dr.Dubeta is the MASTER of all masters here in Vancouver for FACIAL plastic surgery- he only does the face- he actually is an ENT as well as a Plastic Surgery, so he is COMPLETELY doubly trained in matter of the face, THIS IS WHY HE IS BOOKED SOLID and gets referred all the difficult cases- you will NOT find a better doctor i guarantee in Vancouver- guaranteed!!!

BETTER before photos of my eyes
tryingtohangontomyyouthAugust 22, 2013
Just came across these before photos of my eyelids and under eye bags. My under eye bags weren't dreadfully, bad but I am shocked by how much excess skin I had drooping on my upper eyelids! Wow!
Now, I'm reeeeeally glad I did this! (Still hoping they become more symmetrical, however.) :)

Hi i was just wondering how you and your eyes are doing? Have you got used to them, have they become more symmetrical? I hope you are happy!
I have had a hard time with mine.....i never expected such an emotional journey! Whats worse i have not told anyone and my husband just doesnt get it! Men eh!!
My eyes have improved lots but there is a couple of issues that need addressing including them being asymmetrical.....don't really want to go through the op again :-(
I take comfort from looking at how much i did need this....one quickly forgets the old heavy lids, but the b4 pics say it all!!
All the best Lisa

Eyes still uneven. Quite noticeable I feel! : /
Also the lids are quite crinkly. Wearing tons of make-up trying to disguise it. Have appointment tomorrow with p.surgeon for check-up. Curious to see what he says. Well, hear rather. :)

Just had a nose at your story... I love your new eyes... I think you look very perky and most importantly in my book, completely natural. What did your surgeon say about them? I think they look lovely :o)

My sister just had her lower and uppers done two weeks ago. She is still healing and bruised some, but she developed so rare condition called Chemosis where she has a bubble on her eyeball! She had to go to her eye doc and he said it was from the trauma of the surgery and it would heal but it will take a while. He gave her eye drops, etc. Feels annoying she said and looks like crap, but that is something you can't predict. Good luck to everyone with their healing. I can tell her eyes are going to look great when this is all said and done. Good luck to everyone who has had the surgery!

KTA: your poor sis- i had an insanely brutal post-surgery reaction too- my conjunctival membranes were all gelatonous and bubbled and blood red too- also from trauma the p.s. said- i was quite worried that it would never heal! but it did...
for your sis, after 2 weeks I'm sure she looks a lot better- she'll continue to look so! Thnx. for the post- thought I was the only one!

Thanks for the reply, trying! Yes...her doc said it had to do with the conjunctive membranes too. I will let my sister know about your experience! Sounds a lot worse then what she is dealing with! UGH! So glad to hear you healed. After all is said and done, hopefully, everyone who has had the surgery is going to look refreshed and great for the next several years!
Wow I think your results are amazing!
