Carmella underwent eye surgery late last week, and she has provided fans with an update on her recovery. The WWE alumna underwent an upper and lower blepharoplasty on Thursday. A dlepharoplasty is done to correct hooded eyes and improve vision, among other things.
Carmella posted an update to her Instagram stories. She noted that the bruising from the surgery is starting to turn yellow, which means that she’s healing from the surgery, and that her facial swelling has decreased.
She noted, “A couple more days of this discoloration, I’m sure. But we’re getting there, I’m feeling great. I’m seeing a lot better today, so I’m really happy about that.”
She noted that she’s just trying to rest now and not icing quite as much.”
Carmella has been away from the ring since her WWE contract expired in February of 2025. Her husband Corey Graves recently said that “time will tell” as to whether she will return to the ring.
