A lower blepharoplasty restores soft tissue changes in the lower eyelid.
To enhance the results, Dr De Silva combines lower blepharoplasty with other complementary procedures to give longer-lasting, natural-looking results. His philosophy is that it is better to spend longer time doing the procedure once, than have to undergo additional top-up procedures in the near future.
All surgical procedures carry a small degree of risk. However, blepharoplasty is a common procedure, and the risk is minimal, providing the surgery is performed by a surgeon, such as Dr De Silva, who specialises in eyelid surgery.
Risks and complications from lower eyelid surgery include asymmetry, residual fat bags and lower lid retraction. Most are easily resolved, but lower lid retraction is a result of too much tissue being removed and requires complex revision surgery and reconstructive techniques.
Over 30% of Dr De Silva’s patients have undergone previous surgery. Dr De Silva offers revision eyelid surgery or revision blepharoplasty to correct problems created from previous surgical interventions.
