Would a 3rd ptosis surgery (with a blepharoplasty) help with odd numb feeling? (photos)

Hello! Thank you for your question.There is lots of saggy skin above your both eyes and the eye area is downward. For make the eyes even, fresh and more elegant I recommend you a upper eyelid blepharoplasty and brow lift procedures. With face to face consultation appropriate examination can be done.Best Regards!

You would benefit from another ptosis surgery on the left upper lid. This should not give a "numb" feeling to the muscle but it is common to have decreased sensation on the lid following revision surgery that can last up to a year. You would also benefit form a thoughtful upper lid blepharoplasty to help improve the lid crease symmetry.

It is difficult to say if additional surgery would help correct the numbing feeling that you describe. From the photos it does appear you are a candidate for an upper blepharoplasty to address excess skin on the upper eyelid. I encourage you to schedule an evaluation with an experienced board certified plastic surgeon.

Thank you for your question and photos. It's really not possible to give you good answer from these photos alone. You need an in person exam and consultation with an ASOPRS affiliated Oculoplastic surgeon. For proper evaluation we would need to see how the lid functions and how it responds to drop testing. A blepharoplasty in addition to ptosis surgery might help. The muscles that raise the lid don't have sensation so they can't get numb, but they may not function properly. The skin can be numb from the incisions which generally does resolve. Best of luck.
