What caused droopy and excess skin in eyelid after surgery? (Photo)

July 11, 2022
Asked By:RealMR in Chicago, Illinois

Sept 2021, wanted filler injection for hollow upper eyelid issue. He lied that he didn't provide this procedure and pushed Muellerectomy + fat transpositioning. Caused severe drooping + excess skin fold. 2nd + 3rd surgery to remove more skin + fat transfer. Now blurred vision, overexposed waterline, and eyes don't close completely. Plz any expert explanation to help me understand what he did to cause these problems?

Hi @fetaplease235. Thank you for sending your photos-- you would be a great candidate for a transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty with fat repositioning. A lower blepharoplasty will address the herniated fat pads and excess skin under your eyes giving you a more refreshed and rested appearance....
