Is it possible to do a double eyelid revision to lower crease without skin removal? (photos0

franny192Dec 30, 2022
Had double eyelid surgery and my doc was not on the same page in terms of crease height. I had a good brow height with natural low creases - one intermittent one that was 2mm higher than the stable one. I wanted a natural low crease, just to remove hooding and have the same creases on both sides. The post op crease is made too high and my brow height between the brow bottom and eyelid crease top seems to be almost halved. Possible to do a revision to lower the crease without more skin removal?
