Hello! I am a 32 year old male, I believe I have heritary eye bags. Even tho my parents do not have them, me an my older brother do. I’ve had them for at least 5 plus years now maybe even longer. I decided to go with 2 PRP plasma injections which didn’t do a thing. Then did 2 injections of fillers. ( went to someone very well known in Chicago ) eyes look better but eye puffyness came back shortly after. everywhere I go people think I drank to much or lack of sleep which is nether. Please help

Answer: Lower eyelids You are a candidate for a transconjunctival lower eyelid blepharoplasty and micro fat grafting. This approach uses an incision on the inside of your lower lid so there is not an externally visible scar. Some surgeons market this as a "scarless" blepharoplasty. Lower eyelid blepharoplasty allows the surgeon to contour the lower lid fat (which contributes to lower lid bags) and release other structures that help form the bags. Micro fat grafting uses your own fat (harvested with liposuction) to precisely fill in the tear trough and cheeks to create a smooth transition from lid to cheek. You may also benefit from skin resurfacing to tighten your lower lids (fractionated CO2 laser or chemical peel).

Answer: Lower Blepharoplasty Common reasons for lower blepharoplasty include tear trough deformity or pseudoherniation of the orbital fat. An in-person exam would provide a more accurate diagnosis, but preliminarily based on your photos it does appear you have pseudoherniation of fat creating "eye bags.” They should also be more prominent when you look up. Transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty with fat repositioning will provide nice results and a better lid-cheek transition in this case. Do your due diligence, find an experienced surgeon, and have him/her evaluate you in person and discuss your options. @drdonyoo
