I have had large chalazions on each upper eye lid for 4 months. Will it be misery to have them both removed at the same time? I really just want to get it over with all at once. I don’t really want to do one and then the other. Also I am 30 weeks pregnant, I was approved for lidocaine by my OBGYN, no epinephrine though. I can take Tylenol as well. Will it be tolerable to do it all at once? I won’t be able to do it after delivery with an infant and 2 year old at home, rather do it now.

Answer: These generally do not need surgical excision.
Hi @lunascorpio. Based on your photos, you would be a great candidate for a lower lid blepharoplasty. Common reasons for lower blepharoplasty include pseudoherniation of the orbital fat pads and tear trough deformity. Best of luck!
Thank you for your question and pictures! To answer your question, botox in your glabellar area and a blepharoplasty would address your concerns. Horizontal eyelid wrinkles and sogginess can be corrected with blepharoplasty or cosmetic eyelid surgery. It is one of the first cosmetic surgeries...
It's difficult to say without the benefit of a formal evaluation. This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.
