If you are unhappy with your initial eyelid surgery—whether due to lingering puffiness, asymmetry, scarring, or changes in vision—eyelid surgery revision in Scottsdale, AZ offers a second chance to achieve the natural, refreshed results you originally envisioned. We offer cosmetic revision surgery, and do not offer reconstructive revision. At Forma Plastic Surgery, board-certified plastic surgeons Dr. David C. Yao, MD, FACS, Dr. Vas N. Sabeeh, DO, FACS, and Dr. Molly F. Walsh, DO specialize in individualized revision procedures that restore both eyelid function and facial harmony.
Eyelid surgery revision is a secondary procedure designed to correct or refine the results of a previous blepharoplasty. Unlike primary eyelid surgery, which focuses on lifting droopy lids or reducing puffiness, revision surgery addresses complications or unsatisfactory outcomes from the initial procedure. Please note that we offer cosmetic revision surgery only—we do not offer reconstructive revision. This may include under- or overcorrection, residual puffiness, hollowing, asymmetry, scarring, or even functional problems like difficulty closing the eyes. Revision blepharoplasty requires advanced skill and a customized approach, taking into account previous surgical changes and the patient’s unique anatomy.
Recovery from eyelid surgery revision is often similar to your initial blepharoplasty but can vary depending on the extent of correction. Most patients experience swelling, bruising, and a sensation of tightness for the first one to two weeks. Cold compresses and prescribed medications help manage discomfort. By 10–14 days, many patients feel comfortable returning to social and professional activities, though subtle improvements may continue for several months as healing progresses. You will receive detailed aftercare instructions, and scheduled follow-up appointments will ensure your healing stays on track. The Forma Plastic Surgery team will support you throughout every phase of your recovery.
You may be an ideal candidate for eyelid surgery revision in Scottsdale if you are in good health, have realistic expectations, and are unhappy with the outcome of a previous eyelid procedure. Common issues include lingering puffiness, hollow or sunken appearance, uneven eyelid shape, visible scars, difficulty closing the eyes, or drooping that impacts your vision or confidence. During your consultation, your surgeon will assess your goals and anatomy to determine whether revision is appropriate and what options are best suited to deliver the desired improvements.
Please note: Eyelid Surgery Revision is a highly specialized procedure that requires careful consideration. Not all patients are accepted. Candidacy is determined on a case-by-case basis, and a consultation is required to evaluate your candidacy.
