I had upper bleph and the doctor removed too much fat and left too much skin. How will this look in the future?
Answer: Too much fat removed upper eyelid It would be very helpful to see some before and after pictures to answer this question. There is fat in the lids that extends back behind the eye. With age, some of this fat may move forward. So after your fat removal, you may notice some fullness again after several years. In the meantime, you can fill under the bone with some hyaluronic acid filler, or fat. If you have some excess skin that can be excised. It may make the lid appear deeper however.

Answer: Excess fat removal from upper lids Quite difficult to respond without photos. You could undergo additional skin resection which is a minor procedure. The results would be definitive whereas fat grafting does have a degree of uncertainty. Everyone ages differently and prognostication as to your personal situation would require a consultation.

Answer: Fat removal in upper blepharoplasty I usually try to remove little, if any fat, from the upper eyelids to avoid a hollow or skeletonized upper eyelid. The fat will not grow back after removal but can be replaced with either fat transfer or dermal fillers if you have developed a hollow upper eyelid. Replacement of that volume can be very, very tricky so please seek a consultation with a plastic surgeon experienced in volume/ fat replacement in the upper eyelid. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

Answer: If too much fat removed on upper blepharoplasty will it grow back? Fat that is removed in upper eyelid surgery does not normally grow back. Pictures of you or an exam would be needed to give you further advice as to what might improve your problem.
