Lower Blepharoplasty

In general, aging process begins faster in lower eyelids than upper eyelids because the structure of fat inside lower eyelids is weaker, causing the lower eyelids much easier to sag. As under eye skin and fat become saggy, and wrinkles and dark circles become severe, it may cause aged appearance that such condition should be rectified via lower blepharoplasty.

Suitable for

  • Patients with concerns about wrinkles caused by saggy skin under the eyes
  • Patients with bulging or uneven surface under the eyes
  • Patients who want to enhance shadowy and aged appearance caused by wrinkles around the eyes
