I am 21 and and concerned that if I have lower eye lids surgery I will develop hollowing because I had it done at a hound age.
Answer: Hollowing over time after surgery If the fat pad removal is very aggressive, it's possible as you have pointed out to get hollowed lower eyelids over time as one ages. Be sure to discuss your goals and concerns with your board certified plastic surgeon and consider the pros and the cons. Be certain your surgeon is properly certified. I've attached a link where you can start your search.

Answer: Lower blepharoplasty with fat repositioning Do not take fat out! Yes you will get hollow sunken under eyes if you remove the fat bags. It is best to reposition/redistribue the fat bags. See following link and video. It is called transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty with fat repositioning.

Answer: Lower lid fat pads If done conservatively transconjunctival fat removal should be fine. If too much fat is removed, you can end up looking hollow and will then need either fat transfer or filler. An option that helps to prevent this post-op hollowing is to reposition the fat. This is also done from inside the eyelid.

Answer: Will I Hollow after Surgery? Your photo is taken at an odd angle, and you're smiling, so it's difficult to see exactly what would work best for you. From your photo, you appear to have fat prominence on your right side alone, so perhaps surgery on that side is all that's needed. A transconjunctival approach through the inside of the eyelid would be the safest.For many individuals, especially those who have fat projecting at a young age, fat removal in blepharoplasty is both appropriate and necessary.
