Hi blossommonte
I did my eyebags about 2 months ago. The pain is bearable as painkillers are given. I did the traditional method which is cutting under the eye lashes. I needed to remove some skin for lower eyelids.
For me, fat was not taken out, instead was moved to fill up the hollow of upper cheek. Can't really explain this fully... as we age, the fat will hollow out or the face will sag, so if the face is too thin, lower eyelids, too hollow looks more aging. The plastic surgeon will advise you according to your age and what you need.
If you are younger and don't need to remove skin for lower eyelid, then please ask for the transconjunctival method, which is cutting from the inside with no visible cut on the eyelid.

I took sineech which greatly reduced swelling and bruising. As long as swelling is reduced, pain and bruising is reduced. Just had a very light purple bruise after surgery and by the next day, turned yellow and completely back to skin colour by the 3rd day.
I feel some tightness on the inner and outer corners on the eyes. It should relax through time. It's suppose to take about 6 months or so to completely heal on the inside layers of the skin. But of course from the outside, I just look normal but fresher now, like very well rested with good sleep, my husband says he can't tell and no one can tell I had surgery.
When I had the eyebags, I looked tired and without sleep all the time. No cream or serum helps eyebags. But also please realize that doing the eyebags, it will not remove or help reduce dark circles under the eyes. This is blood circulation thingy. I'm blessed with no dark circle problem.
