Optimize your lower eyelid lift

Lavinia Chong, MD answers: Eyelid surgery for lumps caused by Evolence?

I am considering lower eyelid surgery due to eye shadows and lumps. The lumps are caused by a filler Evolence. What does this involve? Risks? Recovery? Costs? Please give input.

Sorry to hear about the bumps in your lower lids, which appeared after Evolence.  I concur with Dr. Canales that the best way to ensure an excellent outcome from your lower eyelid lift is to wait until Evolence has been resorbed.  There really isn't a reason to expose your eyelids to mini-procedures, which will cause more scars and potentially disappoint you further.  Good luck.
