Very difficult to fix eye shape

Lower lid malposition after a midface lift is a difficult problem to fix. When the ligament that separates the lower lid from the cheek is violated for the purpose of hoisting the midface, the lid and cheek become one anatomic unit. Any distraction will lead to all types of eyelid aperture problems. 

You must be very careful how you proceed. I have seen patients undergo as many as 50 operations to correct this problem. First, let everything heal for at leas a year.  Then see specialists that deal with your problem regularly and don't be afraid to ask questions.

Sometimes, the best solution is to leave well-enough alone even if it is not what you want.
