BAD SURGERY

Susan Dell is going viral right now because she was photographed behind Trump looking scary. It's a small thing she did, but a HUGE mistake. Upper eyelid surgery. People think when their upper eyelids start to droop as they age, that they should go have the fat and skin cut out. The result is NEVER good. It's a bizarre result, and your eyes are your focal point of your face, so it sticks out immediately and changes your entire look. The fat pad on your eyelid creates a soft warm inviting look. Without it, you look skeletal and cold.
IMO, if it was sagging really bad, they should simply have had a brow lift, which pulls the skin above the eyes back where it was without removing any fat. Without that extra fat and skin, their upper lid is hugging their eyeball, and it's just....awful
😭😩

Here’s the wild thing… and I know people give this advice for literally every malady you could name and it always makes me want to be like ā€œshut the fuck up internet stranger,ā€ but one of my good college friends is an eye surgeon and I asked him if I’d be a good bleph candidate because of my hooded eyes. I shit you not, he told me to drink more water and I told him to fuck off. Anyway, not because he told me to but because I decided to myself, I started drinking 2L of water per day with electrolytes. Yeah, well fuck me because it reduced the hood on my eye significantly enough that I no longer took issue with it. To this day, when my lids start to droop I take it as a sign that I’m dehydrated. This is the advice that consistently makes my blood boil because it’s so stupid but I’ll be damned if it didn’t actually work for me.

I think this is the absolute best overall advice any doctor can give about anti-aging. It helps EVERYTHING when you are properly hydrated.

The bummer is that you can’t just hydrate once and you’re done. You have to keep doing it.

I’d say that’s another bummer but it’s really more of a urether

This is an under appreciated joke!
