Crepey Skin After Upper Blepharoplasty

The crepy skin after upper blepharoplasty can represent excess skin that has not been maximally removed, therefore a touch up may be in order several months after the procedure.  Crepy skin can also respond to tightening procedures like chemical peel or laser or volume replacement.

Crepey skin is normal if you have not combined s skin resurfacing procedure with your Blepharoplasty surgery.  When excess fat is removed from the lower lids and excess skin is removed from the upper lids- you have merely addressed skin and fat- not skin tone, texture and quality. 

 Lasers create a tightening affect that helps to improve the appearance of loose facial and neck skin.

A laser is an amplified beam of light that vaporizes blemishes, imperfections, and lines and wrinkles that were once thought to be permanent. Laser resurfacing may also improve the appearance of acne scars and remove precancerous skin growths.

It is not uncommon to have some crepy upper eyelid skin after upper blepharoplasty. It should resolve with time and I would wait at least six months. If it does not resolve options include a minor touch-up or a laser tightening procedure should the need arise.
