Is a bilateral lower Canthoplasty, spacer cartilage grafts and skin grafts to lower lids required? (photos)

Asked By:tlw68 in Townsville, AU

I had upper & lower blepharoplasty performed about 10 days ago & now have Ectropion. The original surgeon advised massage & give it time to correct itself. I sought another opinion & was advised no amount of massaging would assist & that if I left it, it would get worse. I was advised to undergo a Canthoplasty & skin grafts to both eyes. I am very concerned about rushing into another surgical procedure so quickly given that there are two completely opposing views of my situation.
