Aging eyelids

Injections will not rejuvenate the aging eyelids. The upper or lower blepharoplasty is the best option when the patient is emotionally, physically, and financially ready. The goal for upper eyelid blepharoplasty with a mild amount of puffiness and bags, is to remove excess skin. The goal for the lower eyelid surgery is to remove fat bags in the lower lids to correct the puffy look. This can be done through the transconjunctival approach.

Upper and Lower Eyelid Surgery

In the simplest sense, upper eyelid surgery with removal of redundant skin and lower eyelid surgery to remove fat and possibly skin can be performed. This may require support of the lower eyelid.

Eyelid options.

You appear to be a good candidate for either undereye dermal filler or lower blepharoplasty to remedy the small bag in your lower eyelid. Filler can be placed in the office but the results are temporary. Undereye filler helps to temporarily fill in the hollow and camouflage lower eyelid bags. A lower eyelid blepharoplasty or eyelid lift will permanently remove the lower eyelid bag and also fill in the hollow at the lower eyelid - cheek junction. It's not uncommon to receive... more
