Lower Eyelid Retraction From Previous Lower Eye Bag Removal Causing Rounding Of The Eyes Picture With Doctor Amiya Prasad, MD, New York, New York (10065)
Lower eyelid retraction from a previous lower eyelid surgery to remove eye bags can cause the eyes to become more rounded, and cause irritation from more exposed eyelids. This sad look is due to skin being unnecessarily removed, perhaps in an effort by non-eyelid specialist surgeon that mistook wrinkled eyelid skin as excess skin. Eyelid skin is rarely removed by eyelid surgery specialists, but restoring rounded eyes to more almond shaped eyes through lower eyelid retraction revision surgery is also a specialty of oculofacial/ oculoplastic surgeons.
