Is it surgeon preference? With the consult I had he said he does total removal and that fat injection has poor results long term and fat repositioning can also move long term.

Answer: It may depend upon the skin of your lower eyelids. If your problem is congenital bulging of fat pads in your under eyes, and if you have good lower eyelid tone without much lower eyelid wrinkling, depending on your examination, a transconjunctival lower eyelid blepharoplasty maybe a reasonable approach. Please consider we asking you a question with photographs. I hope this helps. Sincerely, Dr Joseph

Answer: Total sounds aggressive We know that total removal of fat tends to lead to hollowing and an aged or unnatural appearance long term. It is true that fat injections and fat repositioning can be challenging to predict exactly. Typically there is some combination of removal and repositioning that is best. It is very hard to answer this question well without photos.
