The area under my eyes has become hollow and congested with veins in recent years. They also are puffy at times. The area where my lower eyelid meets my cheeks is not a smooth transition. It’s almost like my orbital bone is visible and you can see the dip where my eye socket is. Not interested in fillers as I’ve had them before and I’m not a candidate due to puffiness in the under eye area. Would I be A good candidate for a lower Bleph?
Answer: Eyelid Surgery Hello! Thank you for your question.From the photo your under eye area looks fine. I do not recommend you a lower eyelid blepharoplasty. For more upward and tense looking in your eye are I suggest you a endoscopic brow lift surgery. If you can provide photos with better lighting, from the side of your face and 1 meter away I would be able to make a proper evaluation. Best Regards!

Answer: Lower Blepharoplasty For a smoother eyelid to cheek transition, transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty is a great option. Excess fat is removed from the lower eyelid to reduce puffiness, under-eye bags and wrinkles which helps restore a more youthful appearance. Results are certainly surgeon dependent, so it's important to do your research in finding an experienced surgeon. Have him/her evaluate you in person and discuss your options. Goodluck! @drdonyoo

Answer: Lower eyelid hollows Thanks for sharing your question with us. Your concern about seeing the bone underneath your eyes is a common concern with patients. The soft tissue over the orbital rim: skin and orbicularis muscle is very thin, and the ideal treatment would be to put something to cushion that transition between the lower eyelid and cheek. Filler is the easiest and initially inexpensive option but as it sounds like you know, it has a very high rate of looking unnatural even in the best of hands. When it comes to surgical options, I would highly advise against having lower lid fat removed, this will just lead to more hollowing. Although I feel you notice this issue way more than others do, if you are set on doing something, the best chance of a natural looking and safe results would likely be lower eyelid transconjunctival blepharoplasty with fat repositioning, and given that there isn’t much fat to reposition you should consider doing concurrent fat grafting with a provider very experienced in this technique as there is little room for error. Best luck on your journey!
