Over a year ago my left eyelid suddenly became swollen and developed an extra eyelid crease. I would like to know if anyone can tell me what I have and what steps I should take in getting a procedure done. Thanks in advance.
I am 40 and have genetic under-eye hollowness. It has become markedly worse over the past few years. I really want to do something more on the permanent side, but am now thoroughly confused: An oculoplastic doctor has said that I am not a candidate for a lower bleph/that it wouldn't make me look good. I have, however, seen that it gives amazing results on plenty of people with similar appearances. So - do I add or remove? Advice welcome! Thank you.
Your photos disclose excess fat bulging in the lower lid with very good smooth overlying skin and muscle. Using a filler below the bulging fat (the tear trough) will only make your lower lids appear more puffy. From your photos you appear to be an excellent candidate for a transconjunctival blepharoplasty, which would leave you with no visible scars.
I am a 63 year old woman with fairly good skin tone but I am developing bags under my eyes. I went for two consults and got two opinions. The first dr suggested a lower lid transcutaneous blepharoplasty at a total cost of approx. $2600. The second recommended a lower lid transconjunctival blepharoplasty at a total of $3400. How do I choose and why the difference in costs?
The deciding factor is the quality, amount, and ability of your lower eyelids skin to appear smooth. Most likely, at your age, the skin may be too loose. If you can pinch your lower lid skin and it stays folded, your best option is a transcutaneous approach which will tighten that skin.
