When performed well, the results of cosmetic eyelid surgery are natural-looking and rejuvenating. But what do you do if you get a poor outcome? Dr. Guy Massry is an expert in revision eyelid surgery and explains how to fix bad results from cosmetic eyelid surgery.

One of the most common problems Dr. Massry deals with after an unsuccessful lower eyelid blepharoplasty is lower eyelid retraction or pulled down lower lids. Correcting lower eyelid retraction is often a complicated and frustrating problem to address and requires the skills of an expert like Dr. Massry to ensure you get the best outcome possible.

How Does Dr. Massry Fix Lower Lid Retraction?

Dr. Massry uses various specialized techniques to correct this deficit, including the following:

  • Midface-lift
  • Raising and suspending the outer corner of the lower eyelid
  • Outer brow lift

Dr. Massry performs the outer brow lift to avoid bunching of skin at the outer corner of the eyelid which can happen from the midface lift. This advanced technique gives a smooth final result. Combining these techniques is the best way on how to fix bad results from cosmetic eyelid surgery.
