1 year post upper eyelid surgery - was enough skin removed? (photo)

I would go with the opinion of your oculofacial plastic surgeon. Most plastic surgeons work on the entire body, from head to toe. On the other hand, oculofacial plastic surgeons sub-specialize in complex eyelid and facial plastic surgeries. It looks like you have excess skin that your oculoplastic surgeon can help you with.

You are very perceptive. I agree with you that you have a residual problem. What looks like crepey excess skin in your photo is more likely volume loss. By adding volume to the sub-brow region, you will have a more youthful upper eyelid eyebrow complex. At present, you look hollow.

Removing the proper amount of skin during the Upper Blepharoplasty surgery is one of the major components to a successful result. I take great care to remove the correct amount and sometimes asymmetric excisions are needed depending on the patient's anatomy. Although it does seem that you may benefit from additional skin resection, it is very important to make sure that your brows are in the correct position. Low brows can cause the appearance of excess eyelid skin. You should discuss your care with a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon who will be able to provide more information. If you are ever in Arizona I would be happy to see you. Thank you for your question!
