had an upper and lower blepharoplasty 8 years ago. But feel the fat pads are starting to show again. I'm not sure if I'm being paranoid? I've used polynucleotides but don't think they've made enough difference. The right eye has always been worse.
Answer: Repeat blepharoplasty i agree that there is trace residual herniated orbital fat. However, the puffiness you see right under your eyelids is actually a muscle (orbicularis oculi) that is responsible for blinking/closing your eye. Some people have more a more pronounced muscle that becomes more apparent after removing the surrounding fat with the blepharoplasty procedure. You can consider botox the muscle to soften/flatten it. You can also consider some skin tightening (such as with laser resurfacing) to smooth out the appearance of the entire lower eyelid area. You can do either of these options with or without a repeat blepharoplasty to remove the residual herniated orbital fat.

Answer: Lower Bleph Thank you for your inquiry! By your photos, it looks like you would be a great candidate for another lower bleph procedure to remove additional fullness to your lower eyelids. I recommend scheduling a consult appointment with a board certified plastic surgeon like myself so we can assess your eyes, listen to your goals, and create a surgical plan that is best for you and your goals!

Answer: Do I need another lower blepharoplasty? You will likely need a combination of transconjunctival lower blephoroplasty with possible fat repositioning, and fat transfer.

Answer: Consider An HA Filler Cheek Augmentation For Treating Under-Eye Bags & Hollows Volume deficit in the cheeks, which appears to be the case in the photos provide, plays a major role in the development of under eye problems, such as tear troughs and bags. If this is indeed the case here, this can be quickly and easily remedied with the use of a lifting filler, such as Restylane Lyft. This must be done in the appropriate way to maintain a feminine, heart-shaped face and Ogee Curve while secondarily improving the under eye issues. Belotero Balance could be used subsequently should the infraorbital tear troughs and bags still remain an issue. You would be wise to consider consulting with a board certified cosmetic dermatologist. In experienced hands, treatment should take no more than about twenty minutes and typically gives rise to immediate "Wow!" reactions Best of luck.
