Lower Blepharoplasty with Fat Repositioning-Is There a Risk of Hollowing over Time?

Dear Msjaws

Thank you for your excellent question!  Volume loss around the eyes occurs with aging.  After any surgery- grafting, repositioning or simple bleph- you can experience contour change that may require a touch up.

With Warm Regards,

 However, that does not mean you will experience this.  The real question is what is right for your lower eyelids at this time.  Without photographs and ideally a personal examination, it is impossible to know if your issues should be addressed with lower eyelid surgery.  Sometimes the contours in the lower eyelid are not caused by herniated or pseudo herniated fat.  There is no substitute for expert assessment.  Consider reposting with a photograph.
