Learn More About Revisional Eyelid Lift

A revisional eyelid lift is a surgical procedure that corrects the results of a previous blepharoplasty. Renowned oculofacial plastic surgeon Dr. Shoib Myint is a world-class leader in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery of the eyes and face. His unique and rare skill set qualifies him as one of the best surgeons to perform revisional eyelid surgery in the United States. 

If you’re dissatisfied with your blepharoplasty results, want to diminish post-surgical scarring, or wish to make minor improvements, contact Myint Oculo Facial Plastic Surgery in Las Vegas, NV, today to meet with Dr. Myint. He’d be happy to discuss your unique concerns and build a custom treatment plan to help reveal natural-looking results.

Absolutely. The main objective of a revisional eyelid lift (or surgery) is to correct a blepharoplasty that didn’t achieve the result you wanted. Revisional blepharoplasty may involve adjusting the position of the eyelid crease, removing excess skin or fat, or addressing any asymmetry or scarring left from the initial procedure. 

During a consultation, Dr. Myint will assess your specific concerns and develop a personalized treatment plan to help you achieve your desired aesthetic outcome.

Technically, there’s no limit to the number of surgeries you can have for an upper or lower eyelid lift. The key, however, is to make sure that your surgeon is highly skilled and experienced, like Dr. Myint at Myint Plastic Surgery in Las Vegas, NV.

Sometimes an eyelid lift doesn’t achieve the desired results. That’s why Dr. Myint uses his expertise and unique skill set to provide revisional eyelid lifts to his patients in Las Vegas, NV, and the surrounding area. The benefits of a revisional eyelid lift performed by Dr. Myint include:

  • Correcting the results from a previous blepharoplasty (eyelid lift)
  • Achieving a dramatically improved aesthetic
  • Opening the eyes for a more awake, alert look
  • Eliminating sagging, loose, or drooping skin in the upper and/or lower eyelids
  • Fixing asymmetry (an uneven or lopsided look)
  • Improving the contour of the eyes
  • Repairing hollow areas under the lower lids
  • Removing bumps or lumps from improper fat grafting
  • Making it easier to close the eyes if too much skin was taken from the upper lids
  • Removing scarring
  • Eliminating excessive tearing
  • Reducing undereye bags

Revisional eyelid surgery is performed at Myint Oculo Facial Plastic Surgery in Las Vegas in one of our on-site operating rooms. Depending on whether the upper, lower, or both eyelids are being addressed, blepharoplasty revision can take up to three hours to complete. Dr. Myint will use various techniques to correct insufficient tissue removal, tissue shortage from overcorrection, and unsightly scarring in order to achieve a more natural contour to the eyelids.

In general, an upper eyelid lift (blepharoplasty) will last between 5 – 7 years. A lower eyelid lift usually doesn’t have to be done more than once unless you need a correction to a previous surgery that didn’t achieve the look you want.

The results of a revisional eyelid lift are long-lasting, but it’s important to understand that the aging process will continue naturally. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and protecting your skin from sun damage can help prolong the results.

Men and women alike may be ideal candidates for revisional eyelid surgery if they’re unhappy with the results of their initial blepharoplasty. They may also consider this procedure to maintain their outcomes from an eyelid lift that was performed ten or more years prior.

 Not all revisional eyelid lifts are performed due to surgeon error. During your consultation with Dr. Myint, he can evaluate your concerns to determine if revision surgery is your best option.

After revisional blepharoplasty, you can expect to experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort, but these symptoms are normal and should dissipate as you heal. Dr. Myint will remove your stitches after about 4 to 5 days and will set up another follow-up exam about one week after your surgery. During this time, we recommend that you refrain from strenuous activities so as to promote optimal healing. 

Any pain or inflammation can typically be eased with over-the-counter pain medication, and most patients are able to resume normal activities after about 7 to 10 days.
