What Are the Risks of Transconjunctival Lower Eyelid Surgery with Skin Pinch?

RickyC
I saw a plastic surgeon today (will see others as well) and he recommended a fat melting blepharoplasty or transconjunctival. What are the risks of transconjuntival lower eyelid surgery with perhaps a skin pinch should the protruding skin not retract back nicely and either sag or wrinkle?
