Eyelid Lift Before & After Case 578

This 38 year-old woman who had undergone left breast reconstruction a year earlier was to come in for a balancing lift, and since she was otherwise doing well, she asked about adding an upper and lower blepharoplasty to this procedure.  As it would add only one-1.5 hours to the case (as well as save her a significant amount of money, I agreed that the idea was reasonable.  Specifically, she wished to have better definition of her upper lids, and wanted to address the lower lid excess, and herniated fattiness as well. 

This indeed was performed immediately after her balancing mastopexy, and a fair amount of fat was either removed or repositioned in each of her eyelids (along with skin removal, mostly on the upper lids).  The patient healed very quickly, and had a very nice rejuvenation effect (here pictured at approximately one month post-op).
