Answer: Dry eyes and facelift A facelift should have no impact on your dry eyes. Dry eye is not a contraindication to a facelift, just be careful if you will be doing surgery on the eyes.

Answer: Facelift for Dry Eyes Thank you for your question. Sorry to hear that you have dry eyes, however the good news is that dry eyes would not be an contraindication of a face lift. Most commonly used facelift techniques would not change the position of your eyelids nor exacerbate your dry eyes.

Answer: Facelift A standard facelift should not exacerbate dry eye. However if you get an eyelid lift that could lead to a dry eye or make preexisting dry eye worse. Facelift by itself (Not along with the eyelid surgery) should be safe for you.

Answer: Facelift and dry eyes Having a facelift should not effect your dry eyes. You will likely need to continue using your drops. If you decided to have eyelid surgery on top of a facelift, this could cause come increased irritation of your eyes initially. We would provide you with ointment and drops to help with this. Facelift alone usually does not cause changes in dry eyes.
