Is it okay to get blepharoplasty before weight loss is complete? (Photo)

The lower eyelid fat pockets tend to be diet resistant areas.  Additional weight loss should not significantly affect the fat pockets but can impact the surrounding tissues in this region.  If your surgeon is considering fat transfer, which is often performed with the lower eyelid surgery, then you may want to consider waiting until you are at a stable weight.

Dear alopez06Thank you for your question! Yes, wait till you have lost most of your wieght!Congrats!Trevor M Born MD

Thanks for your question and photograph. Congratulations on your weight loss and I am happy to hear your dedication to continue to your goal. Fat can definitely be affected by metabolic body influences. Excess skin is one of the three components of baggy lower lids that i can see in your one submitted photo. Eyelid muscles can also contribute to baggy lids. Botox can be used immediately to irradicate crows feet. The fatty componete of you baggy lids needs to be examined by an expert ASPAPS board certified plastic surgeon in consultation. Good luck. 

Thanks for the question.  Weight loss should not affect lid surgery.The fat noticed in the lids are not related to weight loss.  Good luck!

Thank you for sharing your question. The amount of fat one gains or loses does not effect the amount of eyelid fat. This is a fixed amount which prolapses forward. Removal can be performed now or after your weight loss. I hope this helps.Good luck,

Congratulations on the weight loss. It will not affect the eyelid fat, per se. However, as you continue to lose weight, the bags may become more prominent and the contours of the face will change so I would recommend waiting.

Your question is a common concern.   Unlike other areas of fat deposition, the small amount of herniated fat in the eyelids is not related to your body habitus.   Weight fluctuations have no effect on the bulges you see in your eyelids.   It is ok to have the surgery at any time.

If you are having surgery under local anaesthetic then it really makes no difference. If under general anaesthetic then being closer to your optimal weight will minimise the risks of general anaesthesia. 
Good luck.

 The fatty deposits in the upper and lower lids are not diet responsive, so  they do not get bigger or smaller  depending upon weight gain or loss. More importantly is to be at your ideal body weight with a BMI of less than 34 befor undergoing elective cosmetic surgery under general anesthesia.

Dear Miss/Mrs. Lopez. 
Weight loss does does not affect the lower lid bags surgery. I would recommend to proceed and when you loose weight you may need to do some fillers around cheeks and area or fat grafting.
