Blepharoplasty Video Diary - 6 Weeks After Surgery (15 of 15)

[@leimelo3332]

I just got the same procedure. Ive been worried about the swelling and bruising. And with your journey I am relieved. That healing really takes time. Thank you.

[@nora-dq9mo]

could you please tell me how it is now? did it heal completely and did it cause any wrinkles?

[@timfagan816]

Price????

[@PattiFinn]

Wait? Is this video six weeks after surgery or seven months. The title says six weeks but you said seven months? Im having this done in a week and a half so it’s helpful if I know, thank you.

[@lynnm148]

Thank you for sharing your journey. You now look fantastic.

[@drjuliandesilva.]

I agree! :)

[@Catherine3385]

These have been very helpful videos all 15 Thank you for sharing, very happy for her

[@MrEdwardvb]

Thank you for your videos! You look fantastic! I'm a 57 year old male who is considering having both upper and lower eyelid surgery. I've never been so anxious about something in my life. Your video made me feel a bit better. Do you have very noticeable scars? That's my biggest concern.

[@sandram8979]

Di you end up getting it, I am thinking about it also.

[@johngowers8268]

You look stunning!

[@rickgrimes4576]

Im already in two weeks. I am already excited to my final results

[@Dandelion_flight]

Thanks for sharing. I am getting worried and impatient ten days post. I thought lower blep would recover faster than upper blep but I was so wrong. I also had a left upper revision like you haha. I bruise easily too, we are so similar. Glad that you are happy with your results.

[@karla9260]

Did it get better and has it lasted till now

[@Dandelion_flight]

@@karla9260 Hi, yes it did get better as in the bruises went away but I can't remember how long it took now. I would say relatively a long time compared to some patients. I bruise easily and my surgeon was not as skillful too. The upper blep stay fine and it has been two years now. My eyes are no longer hooded. This will probably stay about 10 years. The lower is not so good and I needed to get cosmetic help to help improve the situation.

[@backthisway]

FANTASTIC !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@msstacey777]

I had lower blepharoplasty on May 20...so 32 days ago. I have what I’m guessing is still ever so slight bruising under my right eye in the corner...more so than the left. That eye is also the one where the bag was more prominent. I wonder if it’s bruising or if I’m gonna just have that darker area under my eyes forever 😳??? I have found concealer makes it more noticeable so I’d rather not wear any. I also had fat grafting to cheek and under eye area and at times I feel tightness and tenderness under the eyes in that area. These videos have been so helpful because recovery is definitely not 7 days...haha! I don’t see any swelling but my surgeon said to give it at least a full 3 months to allow for complete resolution of bruising and/or swelling. Patience is key for sure!

[@panpanpandesal]

What happened to ur eyebags now?

[@msstacey777]

erika everything has healed so well!!!! No more bruising or swelling 😊😊

[@Fjyfhb]

Would you recommend doing it?

@@msstacey777 thank u for replying to meee even tho ur comment is 10 months old.

[@trixielamour1]

Pretty dang close to a miracle if I ever saw one!

[@davidgonzalez-fp2ln]

Enjoyed your videos, you look amazing. David Gonzalez from Hollywood Florida

[@lbee8247]

I am wondering about the feeling and sensations weeks after. No one speaks about that and it's scary to know what is normal? Tingly, pressure, discomfort, pain, both eyes, one eye? Set backs, swelling after everything went down?

[@DDumbrille]

Not sure why more skin wasn't taken out above the eye...

[@ericaymulcahy]

How old were you when you got the procedure done? I’m in my mid 40’s and don’t want to do tear trough fillers all the time .I rather have surgery .

[@sandrasawyer6362]

was the skin very dry and peel - my skin is peeling as if the top layers of skin keep dying

[@andreyromashchenko8967]

Thumb down for the cheating with lighting. Don't do that.

[@superconnie5003]

How long did all the bumps and swelling take to completely disappear?

[@drjuliandesilva.]

Hi, it could take up to six weeks to completely disappear.

[@olgakanellis401]

His ms Stacey have you had the traditional lower lid surgery or was the incision made inside ? With no scaring ?

[@suziejay1242]

What is the best age to do this surgery? I am 35 and my hereditary bags are bothering me. Should I wait until 40?

[@macymacyy]

I got it done at 25 my surgeon said that it’s best to get it sooner as is it only gets worse with time

[@Omares112]

I’m really depressed my under eyes bruising won’t go it’s been 3 weeks 4 days

[@KhazraLatif]

Please update about current condition of your eyes?

[@Equitable_Street_Access_SF]

I had blepharoplasty surgery about 7 weeks ago on my right eyelud, which had a lot more skin for some reason on the upper eyelid than my left eyelid did. Even though it's already 7 weeks out, my right eyelid is red and purple and significantly bigger than the left eyelid. I'm scared. Is this normal? Also, today I accidentally rubbed my right eyelid pretty hard and I got the worst pain. I pulled too hard on the skin. I pulled upward. Do you think I damaged my eyelid? Please answer, because you said that you would like to hear questions from people who are going to have the surgery or who already had the surgery. I'd appreciate it so much, you have no idea!!!

[@ibanez856]

How did you get it resolved? Are you happy now?

[@Kaagrant]

This is not a reply to Equitable Street, though I hope all has been resolved. This is an example of a question for the surgeon-definitely not for KZbin (or Reddit or tik Tok or Facebook etc). Sure, run it by others while you’re waiting to hear back from your surgeon, but don’t not ask the surgeon for whatever reason-we women too often don’t want to be the bothersome one. You’re not a bother or a nuisance when you e paid someone good money and have serious concerns. A good medical professional knows that.

[@Equitable_Street_Access_SF]

@@Kaagrant my surgeon ended up treating me badly and disrespectfully. They wouldn't answer my phone calls or messages. I finally gave up. That's why I turned to KZbin. No joke.

[@Equitable_Street_Access_SF]

@@ibanez856 I don't remember how long it took me to heal, but clearly it took me way longer than most people, because if you go online and you look up people who are two weeks out, three weeks out, four weeks out, Etc, all their bruising is gone. Clearly from this comment, my bruising lasted minimum 7 weeks. My surgeon would not follow up with me or answer my questions, and the one time that he did he sounded really annoyed and only gave me a half answer. It was very strange. I will never go back to that surgeon again. All in all though, I'm very happy with the result! At least he did a good job. But his bedside manner is horrendous.

[@Kaagrant]

@@Equitable_Street_Access_SF That can happen,mom course. But a qualified medical professional is the one to ask. People reading KZbin comments could be anyone. They could be landscapers for all we know. You can also try trying going TO their office if you’re not getting answers to legitimate questions . Just show up. I did it with at an OB/Gyn office at a large teaching university hospital. “Why am I here? Because your phones are Akers busy. I’ve got serious problems and if you won’t see me, I’ll make out a complaint to ACOG.” They got me in, in a snap. No drama, no emotional outburst, nothing they could use to say I was hysterical or disruptive. Im so sorry that happened to you. How’s your eye now?

[@MC-rz2xc]

I am 3 weeks out from my lower blepharoplasty surgery, and although I dont have the bruises you did, I still have the same issue with my eyes being really puffy. The first few days, they suggest ice packs and then switch to warm packs until the bruiseing is gone. What did you do, if anything other than time, after your 3 weeks to help the puffyness go down quiker?

[@Omares112]

I have bruising still it’s scaring me :-(( it’s been since 3rd of April that I’m like this still

[@yanelybrito69]

@ M C I had thins done 10ndays ago I don't have much brusing but my stitches looks very bad I'm scared that they will stay bad

[@Omares112]

@@yanelybrito69 don’t worry they won’t even my stitches hve started to bubble but it does take couple of months just do massages use the suture cream scarex at night and use cold compress use arnica x cream and tablets and bromlain tablets. Drink loads of water and avoid junk food as it will make it look worser. Just have to be patient my bruising is going down slightly day by day, but the lady in the video said it took her bruising to subside complete at week 15 so everyone works different.

[@LB-ep7nq]

Would you post a recent video? I had similar results 6 weeks out, but that is NO longer the case. I look hollow and don't recognize myself. These plastic surgeons should be ashamed of themselves for performing such short term procedures! Unless you can afford and would even want to get injected with fillers every 6 months, I'd stay away!!! Fat looks far better than a hollowed out appearance (see all the mature women who now wear glasses.Bet you they are just masking their hollowed up appearance)!!!

[@robertowensenzer4622]

Perhaps you went to the wrong surgeon.

[@geef2356]

Did you get good final results ? I’m dealing with the same thing went from good to more dark circles and hollowness , I’m 15 days post op

[@Rawwwrrr124]

Same. 12 days op but each day i notice the sunken of tear duct makes my eyes dark cirle. I messaged my surgeon and he said it starting to look really good and be patient with until the sutures come down and swelling goes down. But the swollen is mild already. I’m depressed 😢

[@ratuwangi8701]

fail result, no shoot from near clearly

[@GraceHolmes]

We get to this final video and she’s so far away with dramatically different lighting creating a shadow effect the results can’t be seen at all
