Eyelid hollows

Elizabeth F. Rostan, MD answers: Are Oculoplastic surgeons better at Fat Transfer?

I am 36, Asian, and have a hollow left upper eyelid as a result of a "failed" Blepharoplasty. I'm looking up fat grafting to correct this, and I'd like to know, are oculoplastic surgeons better at this procedure?

It appears that your eyes have several issues that need to be addressed. While there are many dermatologists and plastic surgeons that are very good at fat transfer and filler to the upper eyelid, I do think that most of them would still refer you to an oculoplastic surgeon who is very experienced in both cosmetic and reconstructive eyelid surgery.
