Is Fat Repositioning During Lower Blepharoplasty a Common Procedure?

May 13, 2013
Asked By:Sky34 in Nova Scotia, NS

This is a follow-up to my first question... titled: "Lower blepharoplasty with Negative Vector orbit?" During my consultations, I asked about repositioning the fat from the bulge to the crease under the eye, instead of removing the fat completely. I was informed the rate of success is not good for repositioning the fat. It is better to have the fat removed and than get fillers injected in that area. Is there often complications associated with fat repositioning under the eye?
