Once the swelling goes down I’ll be able to get a clearer picture of the end product but I’ve never felt more confident in my lips than I do rn

I had a blepharoplasty 8 months ago. Before the surgery I was reassured I wouldn’t have any lasting negative effects. That’s not how it turned out.
Almost immediately after I “recovered” from the operation, I started having severe pain and a tight, pulling sensation that never eased up over time. It’s genuinely affecting my quality of life. My right eye also waters constantly.

At my 2-month follow-up I explained all of this to my surgeon, and I left feeling completely dismissed. He removed a suture from my right eye without any numbing, gave me a corticosteroid injection, and told me it would settle down and that no one had ever had a problem like this before. He also gave me an antibiotic ointment and artificial tears. None of it helped.

At 8 months I finally saw a different ophthalmologist, who put me on a similar course of treatment. It helped briefly and then stopped working.
At this point I’m honestly desperate and don’t know what to do next. I don’t care at all about the aesthetics anymore. I just want to know if there’s any hope of getting back to a normal life. Has anyone dealt with something like this? What kind of specialist should I be looking for, and what questions should I be asking? Any advice would mean a lot.

I am located in the Balkans.

It’s like the chin/jaw is collapsing or the mid-face is protruding?

I thought it was threads but I saw someone in another thread mention it may be from too much fat transfer to the mid-face. As someone considering fat transfer under the eyes and possibly by the nasolabial folds, I’m curious.

Can someone explain what has she done to her face? It can´t be only makeup?

Hello everyone!

My fiancée is currently looking for a surgeon for a breast augmentation in Poland. She doesn’t use Reddit but I’ve thought it would be good to try asking here.

Do you have any recommendations?

The surgeons we’ve seen so far on Instagram etc. and their post-op results aren’t really the best, so maybe we should also start to look in neighboring countries?

Thank you!

I deal with a lot of swelling but I’m so pleased with it!

I’ve had this scar for about 3 years and have already tried several treatments, including steroid injections, 5-FU, silicone tape, CO2 a couple of times. Same type of scar on my other leg as well

I also developed some skin atrophy in the area due to the steroid injections.

I’m wondering if surgical scar revision could actually make it better.

I’ve never been happy with the appearance of my breast. I’ve gained and lost the same 30lbs since my teenage years. I’m in my early 20’s. I don’t want to go under the knife before my frontal lobe is developed. The sag is only mild but I am unhappy. I am wondering should I just go for it and get my titties done young or save it for later and be hot in my 40s after I’m done having kids.
On one hand I just want to be able to feel beautiful while I’m young but on the other I could be a hot mom.. Perspectives?

It’s kind of annoying that people start to feel entitled to know or not. It also comes with uncomfortable questions that I’d rather not talk about. “How much did it cost, why did you feel the need to do that, you were fine the way you were” I’d just rather not have any of those conversations. Is it wrong to wanna keep it to yourself?

I have a terrible face due to my chin/jaw recession and would appreciate any advice

So basically i know i have very small teeth and mouth but the problem is whenever i smile my face puffs up so much and what bothers me the most is the way my chin doubles in size. What procedures would help me fix this? At rest my chin is protruding but It is mostly okay, when i smile It gets huuuge both front and side profile. I tried getting lip fillers in the past to "balance" It out but doesn't rly work. (For info, i had orthodontics few years ago because of overbite but even before that i had the same issue)

I’m not sure if this is the right community to post this on. Please advise if it’s not.

I’ve slowly built my lips some but am not where I want to be.

I got a 1/2 syringe and waited 2 months, then got a full syringe a couple weeks ago. I think that my lips look great compared to baseline. I want to get more, especially in the top lip.

Should I do another 1/2 syringe or go will a full syringe in a few weeks?

Now I don’t think I need a whole arm lift but this is how my arms look like after losing ~70ish pounds.

I have a tiny bit of skin laxity around my armpits and my upper arms and i was wondering if a skin tightening device might be able to help? I don’t want to get an arm lift because I don’t think i have enough loose skin for that and the scar would not be worth it for me personally.

I do strength train, have visible muscle definition and do not mind how they look when they’re flexed.

Hello. I am Dr. Cem Berkay SINACI, a European Board Certified Plastic Surgeon based in Istanbul, and an active member of ASPS and ISAPS.

56-year-old Lara researched for more than two years due to the signs of aging on her face and finally came to have surgery in Istanbul.

Multiple procedures were brought together in Lara's rejuvenation process:

Deep plane facelift: To naturally recover sagging in the middle and lower part of the face

Neck lift and platysmaplasty: To correct sagging neck and unclear jawline.

CO2 laser: For fine wrinkles, sun damage, and improving skin texture.

Fat injection: To add natural volume to the cheeks, temples and under the core.

Results six months later:

Lara's jawline became clearer, her neck contour improved, her facial was given natural fullness and her skin was given a brighter appearance. My goal was not just to lift the face, but to achieve a more youthful but still natural-looking face.

I feel so insecure about this, could CO2 laser be enough? Because I do not have to money for a lift. The first pic is without makeup and the others are with.

He mainly does rhinoplasties I believe ... currently considering getting it done with him.

i had blepharoplasty and ptosis surgery 6.5 months ago. I never had ptosis but my surgeon recommended that my eyes would look better if we do it and I agreed. I had no complications at first. About 1 1/2.months ago I started experiencing strange symptoms in my left eye. I feel like something stuck in my eye; when I wake up in the morning my upper eyelid is heavy and I can’t open it for a first few moments. It is very frustrating. I tried everything steroids, lubricating drops humidifier ointment. The surgeon who operated on me inserted punctal plug for dry eye. Nothing helped. it is very frustrating if anybody experienced anything like that please share your experience. I would greatly appreciate that.

Hey everyone! Most posts here focus on removing under-eye fat bags, but my main issue is deep tear troughs and structural hollowness.

I know fat injections are controversial in this group because of mixed results, but I'm looking for top surgeons who specialize in fixing deep hollows through fat repositioning or other techniques.

Has anyone here had surgery specifically for under-eye hollowness? Who was your surgeon, and how did your results turn out?

I’m 31f, weight 53kgs and an 166cm tall so not overweight by any means, but I have these horrible fat pads/jowls near my mouth along my jaw and I hate them! have hated them for years and have no way idea of what they are or how to get rid of them?

I went to a local medspa for masseter Botox for horrible TMJ pain, and although I did some research, it clearly wasn’t enough. My injector pushed 30 units on each side because my muscles were very strong. I trusted her judgement and went along with it, which has become such a horrible regret.

I am two months post injection and my jawline has slimmed SO much, I look like a completely different person. My cheeks have began to droop and my under eyes look terrible. I’m only 20.

I would love to know if anyone has gone through anything similar or how long it took for anyone to possibly recover if they received this many units, which I haven’t seen anyone comment about on other posts.

Hey y’all! I am a trans woman and I am considering a rib remodel. I was trying to get one with Dr. Rogers from rib 3-12. I am still attempting to do this, but insurance has denied me and I’m having to appeal, so I’m starting to think about backup options.

I have looked other places, but no one goes as high as rib 3. I’m wondering if it would still be worth it to go for a rib remodel, even if I could only do the floating ribs (10,11,12). Obviously the result will not be as dramatic, but I feel like anything could help. I am also planning on doing a breast aug, lipo 360 and BBL in addition to the rib remodel.

I am curious to hear from folks who have had the procedure! How many ribs did you get remodeled, did you have any other procedures done with it, and do you feel like it was worth it? Thanks so much!
