WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM EYELID REVISION SURGERY IN AUSTIN?
Your revision blepharoplasty treatment plan will depend on the complications you are experiencing. If your only concern is scarring, your surgeon may suggest topical treatments, injections, or a CO2 fractional laser for an eyelid scar revision. In experienced hands, this specialized laser treatment can be a safe treatment around the eyes. Dr. Amato or Dr. Somogyi may use surgical techniques to release and relax scar tissue for scarring that hinders normal eyelid function.
When the eyes show under correction by a noticeable droop or one lid sitting lower than the other, Eyelid & Facial Plastic Surgery Associates will resolve ptosis (sagging) by removing a little tissue from each eyelid. Suppose the eyes were over-corrected and little skin remains for proper eyelid function. In that case, they may graft skin from a donor site to the eyelids. Your surgeon, Dr. Amato or Dr. Somogyi, will provide detailed aftercare instructions required for a safe, comfortable recovery.
Fat grafting is also a possibility to eliminate a gaunt, hollow look. This consequence is possible if a previous eyelid surgery removed too much tissue to resolve puffy eyes. Expert surgeons at Eyelid & Facial Plastic Surgery Associates will start by removing a small amount of fat from a donor site, usually the abdomen, back, or thighs. After processing the fat in a specialized centrifuge, they will inject the tissue into the hollow areas to restore volume. There is also the option to use dermal fillers or other treatments, which you’ll have the chance to discuss during your consultation.
