Procedure Diary
Procedure: Blepharoplasty
Why you chose this procedure? My upper eyelids were heavy, however they did not cause any vision loss. I felt that I looked tired and that the excess skin on my upper eyelids aged me. So I was looking for a fresher more youthful look.What you did to get ready for procedure? I did not do a great deal to prepare for my surgery. I don’t smoke and I try to eat healthy. I did make sure I had some ice packs in my freezer and cooked a couple of meals so I didn’t have to worry about food, while I was recovering.
What you felt during the procedure: Absolutely nothing.
What you felt/saw post procedure: I was very lucky I had minimal bruising but my eyes were very swollen. There was NO pain, I experienced discomfort due to the swelling, the swelling made my eyes feel heavy, so I rested and applied mu ice packs. The discomfort only lasted a couple of days, the swelling lasted approximately 7 days.
Results: Exceeded my expectations, I love the way my eyes look, I achieved a fresher look and definitely a younger look in a subtle way.
Recommendations: I would recommend it to anyone that wants to have a youthful freshness added to their face.
