Hi Shannon,

You have asked me this question before my hard drive crashed and I have
been searching out an answer. Now after talking to many, many doctors I
have one. Ready?? The answer is it depends. Not the answer you and others
were looking for I know but that is the answer. It depends on age, skin type,
elacisity (Skin stretcheness), scaring from previous surgery, Scaring from
Graves etc.

I have heard of lid adjustments up to ten times. Go to the doctor with an
open mind and hope he/she has one as well. I say this because I am shocked
at the number of people who e-mail or call me and tell me that their doctor
was very upset they were looking for information on the internet.

Live well, love much and grandfather’s blessings

Hi Everybody,

I’m still having depression and anxiety. Doctor put
me on medication to see if that will help.
I’m having trouble with my right lid. It’s drooped
down so now it’s not even with my right one. I had
lid surgery a couple years ago. Now I’m waiting for an
appt. to see a doctor in Toronto to fix it. I have no
idea if this doctor is good or not, I’m terrified.
How many times can you have lid surgery done without
causing to much scar tissue? can anyone answer this?

Love, Shannon.

Hi Shannon,
So glad to see you back on the BB
If you let me know maybe I could check out the Doctor
you are going to see. Do you know his name?
if you need someplace to stay while you are in Toronto
let us know because we live about 10 minutes from Downtown and
could help you find your way around.
have missed you BIG TIME.
lots of Huggers, LynnthePB
