Tear trough implant is practically the same as lower orbital rim implant.

A tear trough implant is a smaller form of a lower orbital implant that comes in standard sizes that sits in front the infraorbital rim closer to the nose that is used to treat what its name implies. A true orbital rim implant is custom made and sits along the infraorbital rim like a saddle and is used to treat various forms of vertical and horizontal infraorbital rim deficiencies.
Tear trough is closer to the bridge of nose. Rim implant is directly under eye. Often both are necessary or one big one that treats both areas. Both treat volume deficiency in two slightly different areas.

The probability that the surgeon who performed your original surgery can help you, let alone has any insight as to what actually happened here is very low. In my opinion, there is also something very strange with the doctor who posted "congratulating" you for having an excellent result. Thi...
Thank you for your question. From your photos it does seem you do have mild ptosis. In your first photo it is not so evident because you are using your forehead muscles to open your eyes. It is more evident in your second photo, but it is still mild. You would benefit from an in person...
