Ocular Plastic Surgeons Specialize in Repair of Difficult Eyelid and Brow Revisions

Mark Berkowitz, MD answers: Revisional surgery for brow lift and eyelids worth it?

I'd like to see pictures of "good" revisional--or corrective--surgery for a botched eyelid surgery and brow lift. It's only been about a year since I had my procedure, and not only don't I see that much improvement, but I swear my face is uneven. Is revisional surgery worth it--and what can I ask my doctor or let him know ahead of time to ensure I don't wind up with the same results? (I'm not using my original doctor).

I am sorry to learn of the difficulty you are experiencing after your Brow lift and Blepharoplasty. It is always best if you first discuss your feelings with the surgeon who performed the procedure.

I agree with Dr. Maggi that repair involves intricate anatomy. Ocular Plastic surgeons are known for their ability to work with difficult eyelid and brow cases in order to improve their function and anatomy. Their training involves 1-2 years after a 3 year Ophthalmology residency studying and reconstructing this delicate anatomy.

You and your doctor can decide if revisional surgery is a worthwhile endeavor. www.ASOPRS.org
