Who does EXPERT grafting, midface lifts, etc. to correct botched revision of sagging lids and other newly created problems?

Question

I may require with a host of other fixes) a bilateral mid facelift and graft for sagging lower lids that persist after a botched revision by a member of ASORPS. Additionally there is now a shortage of skin on the upper and lower lids. Dr. Kenneth Steinsapir, who seems to be a outstanding in remediating the unremediable, writes that there are very few surgeons who can do this kind of work in the country and advises caution. I would appreciate knowing who those specialized surgeons are.

Thank you for your question.  
Fat grafting is still an imprecise science and it is difficult to judge how much of the grafted fat will survive/take. In expert hands there is far less guesswork as to how much will take. It is also far simpler to re graft an area than to remove excess grafted fat. Any experienced surgeon familiar with eyelid and facial surgery who also has extensive experience with fat grafting should be able to assist you. It may well take more than fat grafting to correct such problems.
