Droopy Eyes After Lower Blepharoplasty

 If you post a picture, we may be able to give you more specific advice.  However, this early after surgery, it is best for conservative treatment (massage and taping).  You should discuss this with your surgeon.  Good luck.

Dear Scared Florida
Your concerns are reasonable and should be addressed by your surgeon. There are many steps at this time which will help keep the lower eyeid from pulling down more-
massaging the lid in an upward direction several times a day
temporary partial closure of the lower eyelid to the upper eyelid
steroid injection into the healing tissue(if needed)
Theratears - eye lubrication if you have dryness and/or patching the eyes at night or goggles for dryness
taping of the lower eyelid for support
Please follow up with your surgeon so that your progress can be monitored and i am sure that things will be fine.
With Warm Regards,

Dear Scared
Gladwell got the concept of thin slicing on the money in his book Blink. Your impressions are probably correct.
However, it is not clear to me if you are referring to your lower eyelids or your upper eyelids. You state you had lower eyelid surgery and now your eyes look droopy. You could be referring to a sag in the lower eyelid position or a heaviness in the upper eyelids. When the upper eyelids swelling which can occur with lower eyelid surgery, they will look heavy. This type of situation generally improves with time. When the lower eyelids look droopy after surgery, this type of problem gets worse as it heals more. However, in either case, you need time to let the dust to settle.
It is generally a mistake to assume that a problem this early will need surgical repair or revision. Focus on healing. If you become depressed thinking about your surgery, consider seeing a psychotherapist or neuropsychiatrist. Occasionally, antidepressants are needed. The reason for this is that healing from surgery and dealing with uncertainty can be stressful. How we cope with that stress is different for everyone. Try to be aware of these feelings and take care of your emotional well being while you heal from surgery. Being patient and letting yourself heal can be very difficult under these circumstances.

After 2 weeks, remaining swelling and muscle weekness can all contribute to a droopy looking lower lid. I general, any blepharoplasty will disturb the lower eyelid support. Having had a blepharoplasty in the past, I would be not surprised that your support is borderline. Many blepharoplasty surgeons may add support with virtually any secondary lower blepharoplasty prophylactically.
You will see improvements over the next weeks (and even few months). If the lid is still droopy after 4 months, that is the time to start worrying... Stay in close touch with your surgeon as there are little things to do to "nurse" the lids along.

Only two weeks after a blepharoplasty is too soon to be worried about the outcome. Give it more time. However, it sounds like what you are describing is that the lower eyelid margin is pulled down a little bit called scleral (the white part) show or lower eyelid retraction. It is a risk especially in revision blepharoplasty. Right now the most important consideration is that the eye is well moisturized. If the eyelid is pulled down and exposing too much of the globe (eyeball) you may experience dry eye symptoms which can be dangerous. If your eye feels gritty or sandy make sure you let your doctor know and get on some eye lubrication. Then give it 3 months at least to heal. Worst case scenario is that corrective surgery can be done although you need to find someone who does it well. It can be tricky.
