Orbital rim implants to augment eyebrow/upper eyelid area?

April 8, 2022
Asked By:janedough123

I'm a woman & years ago had orbital bone shaving done (unfortunately). The incision was made in my upper eyelids and the tail ends of my upper orbital rims were shaved, as well as fat removed. Now my upper eyelids/brow have a strange "deflated" look, as well as scars. What types of implants or materials could replace the bone that was shaved? I consulted a surgeon for fat grafting, but was told that it could be lumpy and make the area look worse. Thank you
