Kaitlyn Bristowe is on the mend after an eye lift.
The Bachelorette alum, 39, shared snaps of her recent blepharoplasty, a procedure that targets the eyelids, on Instagram on Sunday.
Despite the painful recovery, Kaitlyn managed to maintain her trademark sense of humor as she opened up about the procedure on social media.
She captioned a post chronicling her post-op with a reference to Meryl Streep’s line in The Devil Wears Prada.
“Don’t be ridiculous Andrea, everyone wants to look like this,” the post humorously read as it began with a selfie of Kaitlyn with red lids.
The carousel included a photo of Kaitlyn – who has been open about her cosmetic work – in the hospital as she showed off her stitched eyelids.

“They really took out more of that eyelid because that’s where I really wanted to fix my droop.
“And then this treatment heals much more slowly but still so well,” she said of her left lid. “I’ve seen a few people with their healing journey of an upper lash and mine is going really well.
“So yeah, this is day four… and I’m excited for the healing journey!”
According to Cleveland Clinic“Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that improves the appearance of your eyelids. It helps reduce the look of tired eyes from your lower lids and removes sagging skin from your upper lids.

Hours later Kaitlyn followed up with a video to clarify that she didn’t go under the knife.
“Let me clarify the eyebrow lift because I’m laughing over here, clearly to myself. Eyebrow raising – I didn’t go under the knife – all my friends were like “WHAT?!”. No, I just had botox to lift the eyebrows,” Caitlin said while raising one of her eyebrows with her fingers.
