Small revisions and touch-ups—or enhancements, as we call them—are an inevitable part of soft tissue surgery. This is always true, even with the best of surgeons. Unfortunately, however, there are some instances in which eyelid and facial plastic surgery is not performed to a satisfactory degree, resulting in aesthetic and/or functional issues that were either caused or left unresolved by the procedure(s). This may be the case when treatment is performed by an inexperienced and/or less than qualified physician.
Due to his subspecialty expertise in oculoplastic surgery—combined with his 25-plus years of experience—numerous individuals seeking revision eyelid and facial surgery in the greater Washington, DC area entrust Dr. Albert Cytryn with their care. From patients who desire revisional surgery after a single operation to those who have undergone as many as fifteen previous procedures, Dr. Cytryn has helped many women and men address their unique concerns while achieving the quality of outcome they expected (or wish to maintain) from their original surgery.

After Revision Facelift Surgery
Revision facelift surgery—also called facelift revision or facelift correction—can be performed to resolve several issues pertaining to a prior facelift, some of the most common of which include:
- A loose jawline
- Asymmetrical rejuvenation
- Over-lifting/tightening of skin
- Failure to address underlying tissues
- Minimal correction of initial aesthetic concerns
- An unnatural appearance
- Pixie ear deformities
- Unsightly scars
- Natural effects of continued aging
Of course, these are simply a few of the many reasons people pursue revision facelift surgery, and Dr. Cytryn would be happy to meet with you during a consultation even if your unique concern(s) is not on this list. Depending on your specific needs and aesthetic desires, he can custom-tailor treatment to help you achieve the look you originally anticipated, or to address signs of aging that have manifested in the time since your initial procedure. His goal is always to achieve a result that appears completely natural while providing the level of care you deserve.
Revision Brow Lift Surgery
As with all corrective procedures, the specific motivations for seeking revision brow lift surgery are unique to every individual, though the following are some of the most common issues that prompt a desire for this particular re-treatment:
- Asymmetrical browline / eyebrow positioning
- Under- or over-correction of brow sagging
- Little to no correction of lines and wrinkles
- Noticeable scarring
- Natural effects of continued aging
