Eyes pushed down due to upper eyelid grafting

Postby Nadinelp » Sun Mar 18, 2012 12:33 am

Hi Dr Lam. I had fat grafting to my upper eyelid two years ago and it has been pushing down my eyes ever since. I am not sure why this happened because I read it was suppose to make you look younger but it has pushed down my eyes and made them look smaller. I had a natural triple eyelid before and I have a negative canthal tilt. Is there any possible way to remove the grafts. I feel the chunks of fat in there (they move around). Thank you, Nadine

sounds as if too much was placed there. it is hard to remove fat when too much is placed but i through a standard blepharoplasty incision the fat can be removed delicately to reduce the bulk.
