Am I a candidate for upper eyelid fat transfer to treat hollowing after steroid use? (Photo)

Asked By:Laurynjvs in Grand Rapids, Michigan

I developed upper eyelid hollowing due to long term Steroid eyedrop use. In December 2022 I underwent bilateral upper blepharoplasty with fat repositioning. There was not much fat to reposition, so I still have a deep superior Sulcus defect. I will plan to wait one from surgery before pursuing anything. Would a fat transfer be a good idea? Would it be too risky given the proximity of the superior orbital artery?
