Modern lower eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, does far more than simply remove excess skin. Our comprehensive approach is designed to:
The goal is to create a natural, youthful look — not a pulled, tight, or unnatural appearance. In most cases, there is enough of the patient’s own fat in the under-eye “bags” to reposition and fill the hollow areas below. This technique, known as fat transposition blepharoplasty, helps smooth the eyelid-cheek junction for a refreshed, seamless contour. It can be performed either from inside the eyelid (no visible scar) or through a fine external incision.
In cases where orbital fat is limited — especially in patients who have had previous eyelid surgery — we may recommend fat transfer from another part of the body to restore youthful volume and achieve a smooth, natural result.
When surgery is performed through the skin, there is a slightly higher risk of the lower eyelid pulling downward (a condition called ectropion). To prevent this, we often perform a lateral canthopexy or canthoplasty. These small, supportive procedures reinforce the outer corner of the eye, preserving its natural shape and preventing complications.
By focusing on both volume restoration and gentle skin tightening, modern lower eyelid surgery achieves results that are:
Each procedure is customized to your unique anatomy and cosmetic goals, ensuring that you look refreshed, energized, and beautifully natural — never overdone.
