Eyelid asymmetry after orbital decompression. Best treatment? (Photo)

M
MeandmyeyesJan 23, 2023

Hi. I had cosmetic orbital decompression done a few months ago on right eye for asymmetry stemming from one eye being buldgier. While it seems like the orbit symmetry is better, I feel like I look even more asymmetrical now because the eyelids between both eyes looks so different. What is the best treatment, preferably conservative, to make it better? Should I release the lower right eyelid or move the left lower eyelid up?

It's difficult to say without the benefit of a formal evaluation. This is my expertise and a huge portion of my practice. Asymmetry is normal and expected. See an expert who does facial shaping with surgical and non surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.
