Answer: Lower under eye treatment There are a variety of different options that can treat under eye bags depending on the specific patients needs and anatomy. Facial fillers can utilized to fill in eye hollows and are non surgical. By artistically filling the hollows to the point where it is at the same level as the most prominent portion of the "bag", the "bag" can effectively be made to disappear. Specific lasers and micro needling can also help improve the tone and texture in the area, but are generally less effective. Finally, a lower blepharoplasty, is a surgical approach that can reduce baggy eyelids by removing excess skin and protruding fat thus improving the appearance of the lower eyelids. I often transfer fat during the blepharoplasty to provide a smooth transition from the lower eyelid into the cheek to eliminate the dark hollow's or "tear troughs". I recommend going for a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon or oculoplastic specialist to determine best corrective treatment plan.

Answer: Eyelid surgery with some possible adjunct procedures Puffiness beneath the eyes often stems from excess deep fat pad, which becomes more noticeable with aging, no thanks to the laxity of the ligaments and tissue that allows it to further droop. Fortunately, lower eyelid (blepharoplasty) can correct this problem by reducing this fat pad. While it may sound counter-intuitive, a simultaneous fat injection can further promote natural results. Take note that the deeper fat pad becomes more pronounced as we age, while the fat right beneath the skin has the tendency to shrink. With fat injection, we provide some type of carpeting right beneath the skin to achieve smooth results and natural transition between the lid and cheek junction. But the truth is, we need an in-person consultation because there are many variables that will determine the most ideal method. Good luck and best wishes.

Answer: Lower eyelid evaluation Hello and thank you for your question. The best advice you can receive is from an in-person consultation. Based on your photograph, you may benefit from a lower eyelid blepharoplasty with a septal reset. Make sure you specifically look at before and after pictures of real patients who have had this surgery performed by your surgeon and evaluate their results. The most important aspect is to find a surgeon you are comfortable with. I recommend that you seek consultation with a qualified board-certified plastic surgeon who can evaluate you in person. Best wishes and good luck. Richard G. Reish, M.D. FACS Harvard-trained plastic surgeon

Answer: What can be done for my under eyes I look tired with circles and puffiness all the time? Most expert experienced artistic plastic surgeons have a variety of procedures, both non-surgical and surgical, at their disposal to produce excellent cosmetic results in the appropriately selected patient: temporary fillers, micro-fat grafts, blepharoplasties and combinations of procedures. Each has benefits and drawbacks and depends on desired outcome and individual anatomy. In a patient with your inherited anatomy, a blepharoplasty will produce the best and longest lasting cosmetic result. Following the advice of anyone who would presume to tell you exactly what to do without taking a full medical history, examining you, feeling and assessing your tissue tone, discussing your desired outcome and fully informing you about the pros and cons of each option would not be in your best interest. Find a plastic surgeon that you are comfortable with and one that you trust and listen to his or her advice. The surgeon should be certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and ideally a member of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS). You should discuss your concerns with that surgeon in person. Robert Singer, MD FACS La Jolla, California
