Lagophtalmus and Hollow-Eyes after blepharoplasty - Options? (photos)
August 8, 2024
Asked By:Glorious565428 in Bonn, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Deutschland
I have had blepharoplasty in January. The result is very depressing. I can't close my left eye. During nights my eye sopened and I need to tape and protect. Beside this, I suffer from Hollow-Eyes as too much fat has been removed and no lid creases. Please, is there any help? Can it only be fixed by skin graft? My face lost its naturality. and I can't sleep. Thank you for help!

Ptosis is when the eyelid is droopy, and there are relatively minimally invasive procedures for lifting a droopy eyelid to improve upon upper eyelid symmetry. That said, in my opinion, you're asymmetry from eyelid to eyelid is minimal. I hope this helps. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Typically 1 month is sufficient time to heal from upper and lower blepharoplasty. I typically tell my patients that after 1 month (with make up on) they will be ready for all social events.
