Am I a candidate for a lower eyelid skin pinch or canthoplasty? (Photos)

Question

I had a transconjunctival Lower Bleph over 6 months ago which left me hollow from too much fat removal and now have more prominent unflattering lower eyelid wrinkles when smiling. I had under eye wrinkles when smiling before but it was more bulgy rather than wrinkly. What can I do? Would a lower eyelid skin pinch or cantoplasty work? maybe some filler right underneath the lash line? Please help

It is hard to assess fully without examination in person, but it is not uncommon to have more wrinkles after lower lid blepharoplasty with fat removal and/or transposition. Skin pinch with canthopexy or canthoplasty can help reduce wrinkles. Botox can also help reduce the dynamic wrinkling that comes with smiling. Also, laser resurfacing can as well depending on your skin type.
