Revision lower eyelid blepharoplasty
Revision blepharoplasty is typically performed to correct complications or to improve the results of a prior eyelid surgery. If previous blepharoplasty surgery elsewhere resulted in an unsatisfactory result, patients may wish to see us for a revision procedure.
When a treatment does not turn out as planned, we know how difficult it can be. If a patient loses trust in their previous provider for treatment, we are happy to help them with a revision lower eyelid blepharoplasty. For your peace of mind, FaceRestoration offers a “built-in” second opinion by two skilled oculoplastic surgeons.
