Your results look amazing but most of all you didn´t look awful post surgery! Later today I´ll be exactly 7 days post surgery, and I still look really scary, very swollen and very bruised. Healing is fine, even fast. I bruise a lot normally and due to a thrombosis incident (not deep vein but nore superficial) I had taken blood thinners a week prior to the surgery (was off them for 3 days pre surgery and 36 hours post surgery only) and am taking them now again, so that obviously doesn´t help. I wish I had bought arnica before surgery, not sure it helps but cannot harm, I´m using it now. Also using bromelain, vitamines, drinking loads of water and trying to eat as many vegetables and fruits as I can. I find it hard to see other people with these scars/bruises/swelling. People I don´t know seem either look at me in shock (maybe asking themselves what happened to me) or with pity, while people who have seen me before my surgery but don´t really know me are questioning why I did this to myself. I didn´t really have a strong indication for this surgery, I did because of small details that have mattered a lot for me for as long as I can remember.

I know that your results are great, but god, it's so scary to see how people look after surgery! It's heavy to look at, but the healing time is amazingly quick! You have great results, and no one would ever know something was done, which seems to always be the case with blepharoplasty.

I agree that it's scary to see it right after surgery! I wanted to show all of the details so that people really understood what they were saying "yes" to! I think it was worth it, but there are many people who just aren't comfortable with it, and I totally understand that!

Did you have to ice your eyes for 24 hours my hubby ghd to do that for 1st 24 hours
@jc_newton 7 күн бұрын
I didn't use ice directly. Instead, for about the first week, I made myself more comfortable with frozen damp washcloths. I wet a washcloth and wrung it out completely and then put it in the freezer. The frozen cloth was pliable enough for me to mold it to the shape of my eyes. Used this method multiple times per day. I thought I'd mentioned that in the video, but it was cut in the edit! Thanks for asking!

Honestly i don't think the surgery was very well executed. The doctor should have suggested a lateral brow lift, however slight, since there still some tissue hanging over the corner of your eyes. The doctor should have known that the removal of fat pads will lead to more wrinkled and should have done a skin pinch on lower eyelids 💁🏽♀️💁🏽♀️
@gwenp9809 11 күн бұрын
A little filler or fat is all that’s needed on lower eyelid. I agree that wrinkles are better than the puff! Wrinkles can be fixed easily!
@jc_newton 10 күн бұрын
The doctor did suggest a lateral brow lift, but I didn't want to have another additional procedure, and I was aware (and okay with it) that my eyes lids wouldn't be perfect. Also, I did have a skin pinch on my lower eyelids (that's why there were stitches on the bottom). If he'd have taken a bigger skin pinch, my lower lids would have been pulled down, so he took as much as he could. I knew going in that removing the fat pads could lead to more wrinkles, and between a choice of wrinkles or the fat projection, I chose the wrinkles.

She has a great looking result. Brow lift is not always necessary, and she said that she opted for wrinkles over fat pads.

Do you think it is worth it ? For eye bags ? Puffy eyes ? I'm 31, and I realised I have puffy eyes, i dont like this aspect. Looks like I'm tired all the time
@gwenp9809 11 күн бұрын
It’s worth it and no pain at all!
@jc_newton 10 күн бұрын
If you're considering it, I'd first check with a dermatologist to make sure that the eye bags you have are actually due to sagging fat pads. At 31, I wouldn't think that the fat pads would have migrated that far, but I don't know. (I'm 52, so mine had plenty of time!) There are lots of reasons for puffy eyes that removing the fat pads won't fix, so first have a consultation to diagnose the reason for your puffy eyes, and then you can determine if the solution your dermatologist suggests is worth it to you.

@jc_newton 12 күн бұрын
I'm glad seeing my experience was helpful. I think choosing the right surgeon with lots of experience that you feel really comfortable with is key. They should also be willing to show you their own before/after photos of both good and maybe-not-as-great results so you have all of the information you need. I looked up my surgeon's licenses and credentials to make sure there were no marks on their record that I needed to know about (like lawsuits for malpractice, etc.). I'm sure you'll make a good decision for yourself!

Did you have stitches externally under the lower eye? Nothing internal?
@jc_newton 12 күн бұрын
@@Sop12349 Yes, I had clear dissolvable stitches right under my lower lash line. Those were from the "skin pinch" where they removed a small amount of skin that would have sagged down after the fat pad was removed. They go in and remove the fat pads through small incisions on the inside of the lower lid, but the surgeon said that they just sort of seal up on their own, so there are no internal stitches.

A cat and lasangna stains? Big surprise! Cats seem to like that sort of thing because of the flavour. Remember, cats eat gross things like mice, birds, insects and mont old food from the back of the fridge is "aged to perfection!"

What's so funny is that in this case, it was my nephew, not my cat, that deposited that lasagna stain on my sofa! But, the reason I have my Little Green is because you're right: Newton brings dead mice and birds into the house, and cleaning the rugs of those stains is a regular occurrence at my house!

Nice vid! I saw about 10 of them before stumbling upon yours which was very straightforward. One question though, after the dye is the mink oil, then you brushed it?
@jc_newton 2 ай бұрын
Yes, and it turns out I used more mink oil than I needed to at the time -- that wasn't really a problem, but I ended up having to really work it in and buff off the extra (my camera overheated and I didn't get that part on film!). If you're doing it, go with a very light coating of the mink oil and let dry completely before you buff. Even better, use a higher grade conditioner like the Saphir Medaille d'Or Pommadier Natural Cream Leather Conditioner (linked in description -- same link as the leather dye). It's expensive, but it goes on easier than the mink oil. Either will work, though! I hope your process goes smoothly!

@jc_newton 4 ай бұрын
@@Okie-Girl This particular project has only been up for a few months, and it's super solid and holding up very well. The only issue, if you can call it that, is that the cats love the carpet so much that they are scratching and shredding it up pretty quickly. It's likely I'll need to replace those carpet squares every year or so, just due to them wearing out. The rest of it was pretty over-engineered with 50 lb. drywall anchors, etc. -- so the build is going to last until I decide to take it down! There's of course the possibility of the sisal rope eventually wearing out, also -- but that would also be easy to replace if necessary in a few years.
