Emilio Codorniz
I’ve been feeling great throughout this process; my self-esteem, my image, my vitality, and my energy have all changed because I’m no longer overweight. I’m not as tired anymore, and I no longer eat until I feel stuffed. On the contrary, I’ve learned how to eat properly.
Shantal Maldonado
I spent years trying to lose weight with diets and exercise without success, and it was incredibly frustrating. I reached the point where I said, "I need help." From the moment I had my first appointment with Dr. Pompa, she gave me so much confidence, and I left feeling fully determined to go through with the surgery.

The way the staff at LIMARP works makes you feel like they already know you. It’s not like a typical clinic where you’re treated as just another patient. They make you feel truly welcome. They’re incredibly kind, caring, and supportive. It’s so nice to come to a place where you feel seen and heard.
Sandra Hernández
Before my surgery, I struggled with both hypertension and diabetes. I began noticing results even before the procedure, as the preoperative diet helped me lose some weight. After the surgery, the weight came off quickly, and my life transformed completely. I am no longer diabetic or hypertensive, I no longer need medication, and I no longer feel constantly tired. It has truly been a life-changing, 360-degree transformation.

What to Expect after my Blepharoplasty?
If your doctor determines that you are a candidate, your plastic surgeon can begin to create your treatment plan. You will play an active role in the planning process to ensure that your results meet your needs and expectations.
Surgery begins with minute incisions. They may be created within your eyelid crease or inside your lower lid. Next, he will remove excess skin, tighten lax muscles, and, in some cases, reduce fat deposits. In other instances, he may reposition fat cells or perform a fat grafting procedure. After achieving the desired refinements, he will place invisible and dissolvable sutures to close the incisions.
How is the Recovering process from Blepharoplasty?
Following surgery, you can expect some minor discomfort, bruising, and swelling. Bruising will usually subside in about two weeks, but may not fully subside for a month. Typically, patients can cover bruising with makeup after a week.
To minimize discomfort, we will provide medications and eye drops. You will be advised to use a cold compress and sleep with your head elevated for a short time after surgery. You will also need to limit exercise and heavy lifting, usually for about four weeks. Your plastic surgeon will provide detailed instructions regarding when to resume certain activities. Patients can usually return to work after 10 days.
