Ten years post my upper and lower blepharoplasty, time had done nothing to help with the discrepancy in shape between my eyes. I had lower lid drooping on one eye which became apparent before I'd even healed from my first surgery. Ten years later, combined with further ageing, I was unhappy with my tired, droopy eyes.
I have just undergone a second surgery consisting of upper and lower blepharoplasty, canthopexy and mini brow lift. I will write a new review for this procedure.

18 months post surgery I am not entirely happy with the end result. Unfortunately the way the scars have healed has resulted in a droopiness to the lower lid, despite taping of the incision for 6 weeks post surgery and massage. I would definitely consider another procedure to rectify this.

I am now 20 months post surgery and am not a hundred percent happy with how my eyes have turned out. As the scars have healed they have ended up with a pulling down of the lower eyelids, despite taping and massaging. I feel on eye in particular has almost a "palsy" look to it. I would definitely consider revision surgery.

Hello....I was wondering if you ever had repair and revision to your eyes. I am now dealing with the same issue and not sure what to do. Thank you so much for any help you can provide. Hope all turned out well for you! Thanks!

Hi, sorry to hear you have the same type of problem. It's disappointing, isn't it? I have not had any type of revision as yet, mainly due to cost. My surgery was six years ago now and my face, in general, has sagged with ageing meaning my eyes look like they did pre-surgery. I'm now considering some type of face lift with revision to eyes. How are your eyes?

I am sorry that you aren't 100% happy with your result. I just need to say from an outside looking to have a similar procedure done eventually, I think you look freaking awesome!!!! Like seriously, wow! I hope that whatever you do next, you are happy with the result. Also, thanks for mentioning the recovery timeline. Not too many others I have read have mentioned this and I had no idea it was such a lengthy process for eyelid surgery!
