I Have Bags and Uneven Eye Lids After Blepharoplasty. What is the Best Way to Correct This? (photo)

February 2, 2013
Asked By:Sue from Az in Salt Lake City, UT

I had an upper and lower blepharoplasty two months ago. However, I still have bags and troughs. I would like input on the best way to go about correcting this? My Dr suggested fat transfer to add volume back into the trough area. I feel like fat repositioning is a better option as there are still bags under both eyes, & adding fat will put me pretty much back to where I started. Is it true that much of the fat dies after transfer? I would also like input on revisions for the uppers.
