Eyelid wrinkles: what is my best course for correction? (photos)

Question

I had upper blepharoplasty 3 years ago. I was happy with results but recently have felt my eyes look tired again. I know there is a frame deformity but the extra skin on outsides bothers me more. Hollowness bothers sometimes. What is my best course for correction?

Derek Fletcher, MD · Answer

Based on your photos, I would recommend a revision, skin-only upper lid blepharoplasty to correct the recurrent excess upper lid skin and micro fat grafting of the supraorbital rim to correct the hollowness and A-frame. You may also benefit from a brow lift. Careful assessment of upper lid function is critical to your surgical plan. Thanks for your question.

Robert T. Buchanan, MD (retired) · Answer

Your problem is lack of volume in the upper eyelids, particularly centrally. This needs to be corrected first. It may correct the other problems. If not, a very conservative skin revision may complete the correction. Make sure you see sn expert in fat grafting and eyelid rejuvenation.
