Do eyelid skin grafts really have a hard time looking natural or does it just take time? I have lagophthalmos due to an aggressive upper Bleph surgery.

Answer: The best option is to work with someone who actually understands these eyelids.
Thank you for sharing your question and posting your photos. One eyelid has extra skin to be removed and the other eyelid is ptotic. Make an appointment with an experienced oculoplastic surgeon for comprehensive evaluation and treatment. Good luck!
Hi @fetaplease235. Thank you for sending your photos-- you would be a great candidate for a transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty with fat repositioning. A lower blepharoplasty will address the herniated fat pads and excess skin under your eyes giving you a more refreshed and rested appearance....
