Complications after
Eyelid Surgery?

For over 30 years, patients from across the globe have sought out Dr. Amiya Prasad for his expertise in revision eyelid surgery. Eyelid surgery requires precision, where millimeters separate great results from serious complications. Unlike general plastic surgeons, Dr. Prasad is an Oculofacial Plastic Surgeon uniquely trained in both ophthalmology eye surgery and advanced oculoplastic surgery. This dual expertise combined with decades of experience is why he is so frequently called upon to revise unsatisfactory results and restoring his patients' confidence.

A trusted expert for more than three decades, Dr. Amiya Prasad is a renowned, Fellowship-trained Oculofacial Plastic Surgeon. Patients specifically seek out his sophisticated artistic eye, essential for achieving natural results that preserve their unique features. This technical mastery allows him to perform intricate procedures beyond the scope of general plastic surgeons. This dual expertise is critical in revision surgery, where he applies specialized techniques like tissue grafting to skillfully correct complex complications.

Ectropion and
Eyelid Retraction

Pulled Down
Lower Eyelids

Rounding of the eyes can happen after common lower eyelid surgeries where skin is removed in an effort to treat wrinkles. A specialized approach is needed to address the skin shortage, add support, and lift the lower eyelids back to a natural position.

Eyelids
Still Droop

Upper eyelid ptosis, a condition of the lifting muscle, is frequently mistaken for "hooded eyelids". As a result, if a patient's procedure only removes skin and fat, the actual droop caused by the muscle will remain. Unlike general plastic surgeons, Dr. Prasad, an oculoplastic specialist, directly addresses the root cause of ptosis by surgically repairing the muscle to restore a brighter and more alert appearance.

Eyelid Skin Loss

Skin Shortage from
Previous Surgery

A 'skin shortage' occurs when too much skin is aggressively removed during a previous eyelid surgery, often resulting in difficulty closing the eyes. Correcting this requires rebuilding the eyelid’s fundamental structure, which Dr. Prasad achieves using advanced reconstructive methods like precision skin grafting to restore natural function.

Artistry - Expertise - Experience

Dr. Prasad approaches every eyelid surgery as both a science and an art. His aesthetic philosophy is not to change a person's look, but to enhance it by preserving the unique character of their eyes. This artistic commitment is even more critical in revision surgery. When correcting a previous surgery, it requires an artist's eye, backed by an expert's skill, to restore natural contours while ensuring the eyelid's healthy function is preserved.

Upper Eyelid Skin
Shortage and Ptosis

A patient can suffer from two opposite problems at the same time, as seen in this case: a weak lifting muscle causing the eyelid to droop (ptosis), and a lack of skin preventing the eye from closing properly. This challenging issue is often the result of a previous surgery that failed to address both problems correctly. The restoration is therefore a complex, two-part solution. Dr. Prasad must first repair the lifting muscle to allow the eye to open, and then skillfully add new skin tissue so the eyelid can once again close fully and comfortably.

Correcting Prior Double
Eyelid Surgery

The art of double eyelid surgery is creating a crease that looks entirely natural and well-defined. When this procedure, done by another doctor, results in a shallow or weak crease, it's often because a secure anatomic connection was not established. Revision requires deep expertise to meticulously create that stronger connection for a truly defined, lasting crease.

Hollows

Hollowness
After Surgery

The art of expert eyelid surgery lies not in what is removed, but in what is strategically left behind for a contoured, youthful appearance. Correcting the hollowness left by a previous surgeon is a complex challenge that demands an even greater level of artistry. Dr. Prasad revises this hollowness with either advanced surgical techniques or a non-surgical solution, uniquely applying his expertise in precise filler placement to restore volume naturally and safely.
