6 weeks after lower bleph. Is it too late to try taping lower lid at night? (Photo)

Thank you for your question and sharing your photo. You can give the tape a try also try a warm compress. Best of luck!Dhaval M. Patel Double Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Hoffman Estates Barrington Oakbrook Chicago 

There are many things that you can try to help with this.  Warm compresses with massage upward will help and taping can also be useful.  Injections of steroids and 5-FU into the area are also good if there is some scarring that is pulling the lid down. 

However, they are relatively ineffective.  Time is needed to let the tissue soften.  Generally I recommend waiting 6 to 12 months before revising the lower eyelid.  Fixing these is very specialized.  Do not let this surgeon "put a stitch in" or "tucking" the eyelid.  Those measure do not work and simply use up resources that are needed for a definitive repair.

try the tape until your doctor is returned from vacation. there are other alternative treatment that can help with this issue, including steroid injection and massaging the eyelid. make sure to see your doctor. 

Thank you for your question.  Your right lower eyelid may be tethered by scar tissue or tight skin closure.  As you suggested, taping the eyelid at night and frequent massage can help.  It takes several months for the scar tissue to remodel and this may improve to some degree with time.  Be sure to keep your eyes well lubricated with artificial tears or ointments to avoid any exposure issues if they are present.  Excess laxity of the lower eyelid unfortunately may require more surgery to fix, but I would advise waiting at least 6 months to see the ultimate result before committing to anything else.  It's important to follow-up regularly with your surgeon and express your concerns.  Good luck!
