Wait at least 3-4 months before embarking on revision blepharoplasty

William Portuese, MD answers: Waiting time before revision blepharoplasty?

I had lower eyelid surgery/blepharoplasty and I am not happy with the results. How long should I wait before a second procedure, if needed?

If there is an unhappy result with the primary blepharoplasty, the patient should wait at least three to four months prior to embarking on a revision blepharoplasty procedure. All of the incisions need to be completely healed, edema subsided, and the final result present prior to embarking on any revision blepharoplasty surgery.
