Can the Creases Be Revised (Raised) After Upper Bleph?

December 29, 2012
Asked By:Jenal in OC

Hello, 30 y/F, full of regret after bilateral upper bleph (3mm skin removed) & left eye ptosis repair. Ptosis repair is fine. Upper bleph has left both creases too low, eyes look hooded / smaller. Some tissue was removed below the incisions, which were made a bit too low, especially medial half, where crease cuts down to the inner corners. Also, brow has very slightly relaxed. I am 1 yr/ post op. My surgeon said he might revise if it is safe. Any thoughts, is it safe / possible to correct?
