Can you have an upper Blepharoplasty done if you have undereye/eye contour filler, such as Juvederm in place? The filler is in the tear trough area but extends outwards under the eye. Should I mention this to my surgeon?
Answer: Blepharoplasty after Juvederm injection There is no problem in performing a blepharoplasty after Juvederm filler in the area. It is very important, though, to be forthcoming and disclose all previous treatments and/or operations to your surgeon in order to have a safer operation. The fillers are usually injected into the dermal layer of the skin (or sometimes on top of the bone) and are not disturbed by the different approaches used in blepharoplasty nor do they interfere with the operation itself.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Upper blepharoplasty is safe with Juvederm, Restylane or other filler in the lower eyelid Juvederm, Restylane, Perlane, Evolence, Radiesse or other soft tissue filler placed in the lower eyelid or tear trough will not effect an upper blepharoplasty. Of course, you need to tell your surgeon. Soft tissue fillers in the lower eyelid can impact a lower blepharoplasty. If fat is removed during lower blepharoplasty contour deformities can occur whoch are created by the filler left behind.

Answer: Good idea to inform your surgeon of injected filler It is a good idea to mention the fact that you have had Juvederm placed in the tear troughs, and you should probably wait at least a month after the injections before proceeding with lower blepharoplasty surgery. It is important to make sure that all the swelling is down from the injection prior to embarking on elective cosmetic blepharoplasty surgery.

Answer: Juvederm and Blepharoplasty Thanks for your question. It is unlikely that Juvederm for a tear trough deformity would cause a problem for your planned upper lid blepharoplasty. It is important to discuss this with your plastic surgeon. In creating an overall balance it will be important to take into account that you have a temporary filler improving the look of the lower lids (specifically the tear trough area). I hope this helps

Answer: Ok to proceed with surgery The Juvederm should not affect the blepharoplasty surgery, but please make sure your surgeon knows about it and any other procedures or injections (Botox) that you have had within the last year. Good luck.

Answer: I would mention it, but it shouldn't affect the surgery I would advice you to mention it. As long as bumps do not exist on the skin surface, it should be fine. He might need to remove some during surgery, but the key is the final outcome.
