Jeff Lewisis in recovery after undergoing surgery on his lower eyelids last week.

The Bravo alum, 51, opened up about getting the cosmetic surgery on the May 24 episode of his popular SiriusXM radio show,Jeff LewisLive.

“It’s fat repositioning,” he explained. “This is kind of a cutting edge procedure. Normally, they’ll suck out the fat, but this doesn’t require folding of the skin or stitching or pulling. They go inside my eye lid but it doesn’t change the shape of your eye.”

Fat repositioning surgery is used to shift the fat under a patient’s eyes that generally creates dark circles into the contour of the under eye to give the area a fuller appearance.

“I should just look rested,” Lewis went on to say, of the results. “It’s not like a huge, big difference.”

“Recovery is going well,” he captioned the post.

Another photo, shared to Lewis' Instagram Stories on Sunday, showed Monroe cuddling on top of her father while he laid down on the couch, same pea bags over his eyes.
