I previously had an LL blepharoplasty where my ocular surgeon removed all the fat, including the orbital muscle roll under my lashes, which made my eyes appear flat. Subsequently, a cantoplexy was performed, causing my lower eyelids to droop. To correct this, fat was added during a second surgery, resulting in noticeable lumps. Can these lumps be successfully removed through another LL blepharoplasty? Additionally, is it possible to achieve a roll or puff under the eyes using alloderm or a different type of graft?
I'm sorry to hear about your negative experience. Without seeing a photo, it is not possible to evaluate your situation. Seeking a second opinion is recommended. As mentioned, waiting at least six months after your last surgery before considering additional treatments is wise, unless there are concerns about protecting your vision.
We understand your concerns following two recent operations. If your lower lid droop is causing ongoing eye irritation, it may be necessary to intervene sooner. However, if there are no significant issues, it is advisable to allow 6-12 months for your tissues to heal and soften. Reassessment at that point would enable your current surgeon or another surgeon experienced in secondary and revision eyelid surgery to recommend a suitable course of treatment. Temporary lumps can occur after fat grafting but typically resolve within a few months. It is important to carefully follow your surgeon's postoperative instructions for optimal results.
