Have you had a Blepharoplasty earlier that left you with disappointing results? When the surgery doesn't meet expectations, patients can experience both aesthetic and functional problems. These issues can negatively impact your confidence, daily life, and even your vision. The good news is that skilled revision surgery can restore both the appearance and function of your eyelids, providing the outcomes you initially desired.
Dr. Philip Young at Aesthetic Facial Plastic Surgery specializes in correcting complications from prior eyelid surgeries. With his award-winning Theory on Facial Beauty and extensive experience in revision procedures, Dr. Young understands the unique challenges of secondary blepharoplasty and offers personalized solutions for each patient's specific concerns.
Blepharoplasty revision is a corrective procedure performed after an initial eyelid surgery did not yield the desired results. It may be done to address functional concerns such as impaired vision or cosmetic issues like residual puffiness, hollowness, or scarring.
Unlike a primary eyelid surgery, revision blepharoplasty requires advanced surgical skill, as the tissues have already been altered. Dr. Young carefully evaluates the skin, muscle, and fat around the eyelids before creating a custom plan to improve both symmetry and natural contour.
Patients often choose revision blepharoplasty because of:

By tailoring each surgical plan to the patient’s unique anatomy and goals, Dr. Young can correct previous outcomes and restore confidence.

Most surgeons recommend waiting at least 6 months to 1 year before undergoing revision surgery. This allows tissues to fully heal and results from the first procedure to stabilize.
Persistent hooding may occur if too little skin or fat was removed during the first surgery, or if swelling and scar tissue affected the outcome. Revision surgery can correct this.
Overcorrection happens when too much skin, muscle, or fat is removed, leading to hollowed or tight eyelids. Revision surgery can restore balance by repositioning tissue or adding volume.
If excess skin is removed, the eyelids may not close properly. This can cause dryness or discomfort. Revision surgery may involve grafting or repositioning tissue to restore eyelid function.
