Struggled with hereditary dark circles that look purple/blue and generally a tired apperance around the eyes my whole life (in my late 20s now). I was wondering if i could be a potential candidate for lower blepharoplasty or if there are any other ways of treating this.
Answer: Blepharoplasy Hi @Humorous851107. Thank you for sending your photos-- you would be a great candidate for a transconjunctival lower blepharoplasty with fat transposition. A lower blepharoplasty will address the herniated fat pads and excess skin under your eyes giving you a more refreshed and rested appearance.

Answer: Dark Circles/Eye Bags/Wrinkles - Fillers (Belotero, Juvederm Volbella); Lasers (Fraxel/CO2); Renuvion; Microneedling/PRP; Peels At home peels like cosmelan, enlighten and aerify along with dermarolling (MTS roller with anteage MD ampules) should be started now. There are many things you can do to treat under eye hollows and dark circles. A surgical option to remove skin and/or fat will such as lower eyelid blepharoplasty with or without fat pad repositioning will be the best long term. There are many things you can do to treat under eye hollows and dark circles without surgery. Non invasive less downtime options such as fillers (Belotero, Juvederm Volbella), lasers (Moxi/Halo/Fraxel/CO2), Renuvion (J-Plasma), microneedling/PRP, stem cells and microneedling RF like Fractora PiXel8 or Morpheus can all help give some improvement. Accutite can often be used or stronger lasers like erbium or co2 spot treatment can tighten the skin and give very quick improvement in wrinkles and texture. A surgical option to remove skin and/or fat might be the best solution long-term. I suggest you get a formal consultation to see what is best for you and your goals. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Lower lid blepharoplasty You would benefit from a lower lid blepharoplasty with fat transposition. This would move your fat from your lid to your tear trough to fill the hollow. Additional CO2 laser would help tighten the skin and build collagen to help with the "dark circle." By adding volume and improving the skin quality, the "darkness" will improve.

Answer: Dark circles A lower blepharoplasty is one way to improve under eye circles. A non surgical option that can give improvement is under eye filler. By treating contour irregularities the eye area can look more refreshed. I've included a video I hope you find helpful.

Answer: Lower blepharoplasty with nano fat grafts, possibly cheek augmentation Based on these, very limited images, you seem to have malar hypolasia, smaller cheek bones. This is, most likely, the major reason why this condition appeared so early in your life. If that is the case, small cheek implants and lower eyelid, transocnjuctival, blepharoplasty would create significant difference. Addition of small amount of nano-fat grafts would help with discoloration. Hope this helps. Good luck.
