Asked By:peeter1994 in Los Angeles, California, USA

Hi, I've always been self-conscious about my bulging lower eyelids. Can a lower blepharoplasty address this insecurity? I don't have any undereye bags, but the orbicularis oculi muscle is quite prominent. I'm wondering if a lower blepharoplasty ca remove the excess gmuscle and tighten the skin, and if there is a biggrr chance of getting botched or unnatural results compared to regular blepharoplasty for eyebags. I'm not too keen on fillers and Botox.
