Details for Case #11041
This 42-year-old woman wished to correct the excessive fullness below her eyes, which she felt made her look constantly tired. She had lower eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) in Los Angeles using the transconjunctival approach.
Lower blepharoplasty often addresses fat deposits below the eyes that cause visible bags. Skin laxity in this area can also contribute to a swollen, tired look. This procedure removes these tissues and tightens the skin in the lower eyelids to create a more youthful, alert appearance. A transconjunctival incision allows for superior access to the fat during a lower blepharoplasty. It is often the approach that presents the best opportunity for aesthetic improvement because the incision is made from inside the lower eyelid, leaving no visible external scar.
This woman’s photos show a subtle but marked improvement as a result of her blepharoplasty. Her surgery resulted in the elimination of her under-eye bags. She loves her brighter eyes and refreshed look that have resulted from her blepharoplasty.
