I think I have asymmetrical eyelids after 8 weeks of upper Blepharoplasty. My right eye crease is a bit higher than the left eye's, and that causes uneven eye shapes. Not sure if swelling still exists on the right eye, but it looks more puffy than the other. I'm not sure if I'll be happy or satisfied, but will I need a revision surgery? Will the swelling eventually go away after 2 months or so? If revision surgery is needed, will that involve correcting the right eyelid only, or both?
These asymetries are not uncommon and yours appears to be very slight at this point. I would expect that you will recover. I would not consider revision until at least 6 months and preferably a year.
I am Asian. I have the fold except my eyes are hooded. What procedure should I be looking into? I would like to do some research before I consider it except I don't know where to begin my research.
If you want to preserve your natural Asian look be sure to tell your surgeon that you want him/her to modify the procedure to leave a small amount of fold over the upper eyelid crease.
Too often plastic surgeons assume that Asian patients want a "round eyed look" to look more westernized. If you do want the Occidental 'round eyed look" that can be accomplished but be sure to discuss this with your surgeon.
Today, most Asian patients want a younger look, but want to preserve the Asian eye appearance.
See before and after photos of asian blepharoplasty.
