Revisional eyelid surgery, also called revision blepharoplasty, is performed to correct concerns or complications from a previous eyelid procedure.
Patients may seek revision surgery for eyelid asymmetry, an eyelid crease that is too high or too low, undercorrection, overcorrection, scarring, or changes affecting eyelid function. Revision blepharoplasty in NYC requires careful evaluation because the eyelid tissues may have scar tissue or altered anatomy from prior surgery.
Dr. Joel Kopelman evaluates the original procedure, eyelid position, skin quality, symmetry, and patient goals before recommending a correction plan.
When the surgical preoperative assessment is accurate the results are usually predictable. However, sometimes the surgery produces an unexpected outcome that was not anticipated. These unfavorable eyelid plastic surgery results can be physically and psychologically devastating for a patient who has high expectations of success. When a previous procedure has produced an asymmetry of the eyelids from either an eyelid crease that is too high or too low a blepharoplasty revision is necessary to correct the imperfection.
“Dr. Kopelman helped me to restore harmony to my eyes following a blepharoplasty surgery that I had with a different plastic surgeon that did not go as planned. I knew I was in good hands after learning that Dr. Kopelman had completed hundreds of eyelid revision surgeries over the course of his career. I now feel that I can look into the mirror again and see my familiar image.”
