6 months post-op unilateral upper blepharoplasty and eyelid crease is disappearing (Photo)

Persistent749969May 24, 2022
I am 23F East Asian. 6 months ago, I got a unilateral upper blepharoplasty on my right eye to get a double eyelid on my right eye. My left eye naturally has a double eyelid, and my right eye never had any crease. During the consultation, my surgeon never mentioned ptosis. After the initial swelling and post-op recovery, I was really happy with my results. However, about a month ago, I noticed that my right eyelid was no longer "creasing" along the incision line.

You have an excellent result and your eyes are as symmetrical as they can possibly be. Don’t have any further surgery

It appears you have left upper eyelid ptosis and may be candidate for scarless ptosis surgery but need more detailed evaluation to determine. See an oculoplastics surgeon.
