When it comes to surgical rejuvenation, few procedures pack the punch of blepharoplasty. Lower blepharoplasty removes excess tissue from the area beneath the eye to sculpt more youthful contours in the upper cheeks. Because the eyes are the focal point of the face, this relatively small surgical procedure can take years off of your appearance and give you a fresh, energized look. When performed by a skilled and experienced surgeon, lower blepharoplasty offers exquisitely natural-looking results with minimal downtime.

Blepharoplasty is a medical term used to describe eyelid surgery. It can be done independently on the lower eyelid or it can be combined with upper eyelid surgery for a comprehensive procedure. It is also possible to combine it with other cosmetic surgical procedures.
Many patients find prominent under-eye bags to be a common cosmetic concern. Factors like sleep deprivation, stress, genetics, and aging can contribute to their appearance. These bags can be distracting and affect one's overall attractiveness, prompting individuals to seek corrective measures.
While popular makeup techniques like concealing and contouring can temporarily address this issue, they often require significant time and expense. Moreover, individuals with naturally drooping eyelids or excess fat may find makeup and temporary solutions inadequate, and blepharoplasty may be the solution they have been looking for.

Lower eyelid lifts can be tailored to meet individual requirements. Typically, it involves making incisions along the natural skin folds and repositioning the skin to smooth out lines and wrinkles on the eyelids. This technique can also lift the mid-face or cheeks by repositioning the soft tissues, effectively camouflaging the lower eye rim and simultaneously reducing excess lower eyelid skin. If there are noticeable fat pads, they can be repositioned to fill hollow areas and restore a youthful contour to the eyelids.

Schedule ConsultationLower blepharoplasty is one of the most common cosmetic procedures performed today.
Lower blepharoplasty involves very little pain or discomfort for most patients, with very few needing pain medication the day after surgery.
Risks associated with lower blepharoplasty include cosmetic concerns (such as asymmetry, scarring, and ectropion) as well as those related to surgery, such as complications from anesthesia, bleeding, injury to the eye or surrounding muscles, or infection). You can minimize your risks by disclosing your full medical history and discussing your treatment with a skilled and reputable plastic surgeon.
If you are seeking a permanent solution to remove unwanted under-eye bags, eyelid lift surgery can effectively eliminate them and rejuvenate your appearance. In some cases, non-surgical options like a dermal filler may also be suitable. Dr. Troiano will assess your specific needs and guide you towards the best treatment choice during your consultation.
Lower blepharoplasty is designed to provide long-term correction for lower eyelid issues, similar to other facial plastic surgery procedures. However, it's important to note that changes in the lower eyelid area can occur as we age, influenced by factors such as hormones and weight fluctuations. If you desire further adjustments in the future, you can discuss your options with Dr. Troiano during your consultation.
Generally, patients should plan for some downtime after lower blepharoplasty, which may include taking a break from work, caring for young children, or engaging in school-related activities. There may be discomfort or pressure around the eyes or nose initially, but most individuals can resume their normal activities within the first two weeks after surgery. While the acute healing process will be mostly resolved within the first couple weeks, it's important to remember that complete healing from any surgical procedure can take up to a year.
Our procedures can be performed on patients who are at least 18 years old. Younger candidates may be considered if they have under-eye bags, hereditary drooping, sagging, or a sunken appearance.
