My Successful Eyelid Surgery Story

Hi everybody, I am 34 years old and I live in New York. I was depressed from my twenties about bags under eyes. It is hereditary running from paternal side. At last after lot of research I have opted blepharoplasty because I don't want to look tired and I don't want to go to parties.My recovery:Had stitches on both of my eye lids for about 10 days. Bruising and swelling used to occur for almost two weeks. There are many other complications , I can say I lived single day at a time.Now everything is alright.I love my results . I am very happy with the outcome. My dad is considering eyelid surgery after seeing my results.I will be ready to help anybody opting eyelid surgery.

Do you know of places that perform eyelid surgery, pro-bono, by interns?  My heavy eyelids make it difficult for me to see, but I am on disability. Of course I could also use cheek implants...but that's dreaming.  If you don't provide these services, do you know a hospital that does?  My SSDI insurance, AARP Secure Horizons (see their website) will provide insurance in certain cases.
many thanks,

I had my eyelid surgery done with Dr.Prasad. You can get more information at his site puffyeyes.com. Where are you from?
