What is Lower Blepharoplasty surgery?

Lower Blepharoplasty, or lower eyelid surgery, rejuvenates the lower eyelids by removing or repositioning excess skin, fat, or muscle through incisions made either inside the lower eyelid or below the lash line. 

The procedure is done under local or general anesthesia based on surgery’s complexity and patient preference.

Who Needs Lower Blepharoplasty?

Lower blepharoplasty is often sought by individuals who experience:

  • Under-eye bags
  • Puffiness or swelling around the lower eyelids
  • Loose or sagging skin
  • Wrinkles and fine lines

Lower Blepharoplasty Surgery Process

Preparing for surgery

A week prior to the procedure, discontinue any supplements and food that contribute to increased bleeding and blood clotting, some of which include vitamins, herbal supplements, ginseng, garlic, green tea and Omega 3 capsules.

Our Oculoplastic surgeons will give you more instructions.

During surgery

The procedure is usually performed under local anaesthesia with sedation. It begins with small incisions made just below the lash line or inside the lower eyelid. Excess tissue is carefully removed. The skin is then redraped and incisions closed with fine sutures.

The procedure can range between 1-3 hours depending on complexity of the surgery.

Post surgery

After lower blepharoplasty, swelling and bruising around the eyes typically subsides within a week. During recovery, patients should avoid strenuous activities, take prescribed medications as directed, and attend follow-up appointments for monitoring and guidance. 

Lower blepharoplasty offers a rejuvenating transformation, eliminating under-eye bags and puffiness to unveil a smoother, more youthful look. Say goodbye to tired eyes and hello to a brighter, more vibrant appearance!

If you experience any changes to your vision, consult your doctor as soon as possible.

It is advisable to consult your insurance provider for coverage details. Our front desk is also able to assist.

Can my eyebags be removed without surgery?

If your eye bags are mild to moderate, you may consider non-surgical options first. These include:

  • Topical creams and serums crafted with ingredients like caffeine, retinol, hyaluronic acid, and peptides that can help bring down puffiness and lighten dark circles.
  • Dermal fillers can smooth out the eye bag area
  • Laser resurfacing can tightens skin around the eyes
  • Chemical peels that rejuvenate the under-eye area.

The optimal treatment plan can best be determined through a personal consultation with our oculoplastic surgeons. They can assess your specific situation, understand your hopes and expectations, and work with you to devise the most effective treatment plan.
