Im 32 years old and I had a lower blepharoplasty because I had bag under my eyes since I was younger. The problem is that after it heeled, it's been already 7 months since the surgery, when I smile it looks like I have wrinkle or crepey eyes, which I didn't have it before. My doctor says I can't have another surgery because there's no more skin left to take. What could be my options?

Answer: Wrinkly Skin After Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty Fermenegais, When evaluating patients with wrinkles, it is important to access if the wrinkles are static or dynamic lines. What you appear to be describing sounds like dynamic wrinkles that only occur when smiling. If you are bothered by wrinkles that occur when your face is at rest "static" (not when smiling) then one can consider laser skin resurfacing and or dermal fillers. If you are bothered specifically by the wrinkles when you smile "dynamic" then one can consider a small amount of a neurotoxin like botox- I have found that this really can help. You really look great and I encourage you to try one thing at a time in addressing this issue (starting with least invasive). All the best! Dr. Tamboli

Answer: Treatment for under eye crepiness I would consider laser or skin resurfacing, or dermal fillers to the area. A combination approach may also be considered when indicated. See an oculoplastic specialist for a comprehensive evaluation and to learn more about your options.
