Question regarding Skin Grafting

Postby formula50 » Thu Jun 04, 2009 11:06 am

1 1/2 years ago, my surgeon put a 'cut' at the corner of my eyes, but the healing and scarring never became fully healed. Now one eye appears"longer" than the other. I was wondering if there was a procedure where skin could be grafted back onto the inner corners of my eyes.
