Lowering a Tight Upper Eyelid with Mueller's Muscle Resection, and Reducing its Risk

A gentleman had upper eyelid surgery (upper blepharoplasty) a year ago to help correct his eyelid asymmetry. He was not satisfied with the result, and his Dr. told him that there was still a 1.5mm difference between the two eyelids. His Dr. recommended a Mueller’s muscle resection, but he is wondering if it’s a dangerous procedure. New York Oculofacial plastic surgeon Dr. Amiya Prasad offers his advice from his experience with Mueller’s muscle resection. He performs the procedure often in treating thyroid eye disease/ Graves’ disease. A Mueller’s muscle resection can help bring his upper eyelid down, which appears to be tight. He explains in this video how the eyelid can be brought down, and how to reduce the risks of this specialty procedure: 2:18 - Thyroid eye disease/Graves’ disease that causes upper eyelid tightening as a symptom 2:49 - Two muscles responsible for upper eyelid movement: levator muscle and Mueller’s muscle 3:05 - Mueller’s muscle in tightening and elevating the upper eyelid 3:30 - Why a Mueller’s muscle resection is more safely done by an oculofacial/oculplastic surgeon with specialized training in the eye and eyelids 4:33 - When the Mueller’s resection may not work, and specialized alternative procedures for correction 5:08 - Why a small amount of upper eyelid asymmetry is normal 5:38 - How a Mueller’s muscle resection can be changed during the operation to avoid a second operation or a revision For more information about treating thyroid eye disease/Graves’ disease, please go to: http://prasadcosmeticsurgery.com/thyr...
