I had an upper blepharoplasty 9 months ago, I’m not seeing much difference from how my eyes looked before the procedure. My surgeon has offered to do a revision and take more skin from the outer edges of both my eyelids. Will this give a more defined crease and make my eyelids look smoother, I am also concerned about my eye shape being changed after the revision.

Answer: Reasons for Blepharoplasty Revision Thanks for the great question and the accompanied photos! I think there is certainly some room for improvement in the amount of excess skin of your upper eyelids (more on your left than the right ). But the big question is whether this is just excess eyelid skin or if it is because your eyebrows are a bit lower which contributes to the weight of the upper lid and can be a reason for a failed initial blepharoplasty. I would discuss this with your surgeon and make sure they are taking this into account as I think this is the most common reason why patients need revision upper blepharoplasty. Hope this helps and best of luck! Kyle Kimura, MD
