Default I had the eye lids surgery done - upper and lower back in 2005 IN COSTA RICA

I did it! I finally did it!

I had my eyelids done.

And I do not have that look of perpetual surprise. I do not look weirdly alert.

The bruising is almost gone. The swelling is almost gone. I always heal fast so I am.

I am still doing the frozen peas routine, just not as often. Longer than the instructions said though. And although I guess I do not have to sleep propped up now that the week is over, I probably still will for a few more days. (I think I must be trying to be one of those over-achiever types.)

By the weekend, I might be ready to nonchalantly appear in public. Wearing sunglasses to social things indoors though might just look suspicious.

I think I am supposed to wait a month before I am allowed to put on mascara and eyeliner. I will know for sure next week at the post-op visit. Anybody reading this want to volunteer how long they had to wait to put on a little eye makeup?

It looks like my only regret will be that I did not do this sooner.

I did not do this in TV. I am in my hometown right now where I know the territory and could ask at least 5 people who to go to.

But I thought maybe others here might want to share their blepharoplasty experiences and recommendations. Nobody can see us here so nobody can scrutinize the work. I love being anonymous on TOTV.

I ahd the eyelids uper and lower done in Costa Rica back in 2005. Best thing i ever did. It was the finest surgeon on Costa Rica - His grandfather started Cosmetic Surgery in CR. IT COST ME $500.00 FOR BOTH EYELIDS AND is still about the same price.
IT TOOK 25 YEARS OFF MY FACE.
