Upper blepharoplastyThis is a 53 yo male who had prior eyelid surgery with a surgeon who was not an oculofacial plastic specialist. He did not get the results he was hoping for and his eyelids continued to obstruct his vision and appeared abnormally swollen and puffy. Dr. Choe was suspicious about a reaction to retained filler as the patient had evidence of retained filler causing swelling of the lower eyelids. The retained filler was dissolved but the upper eyelids remained very swollen and heavy. The patient underwent blepharoplasty surgery and massage was applied to the tissue below the brow which resulted in the expression of a clear fluid. The patient did very well post-operatively with significant improvement in peripheral vision and appearance as Dr. Choe was able to correctly identify and treat the underlying cause of the issue.
