Lower Blepharoplasty

Lower Blepharoplasty

Refresh Your Appearance with Lower Eyelid Surgery

Lower blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to treat puffiness under the eyes, commonly known as under-eye bags. This procedure carefully removes excess fat, and in some cases, excess skin may also be tightened or removed to achieve optimal results. The goal is to reduce the tired, aged appearance caused by under-eye bags, delivering a refreshed and natural look.

Filler Injections After Surgery

In some cases, fillers may be used to further enhance results by blending the eyelid-cheek junction. These are typically performed 6–8 weeks after surgery and can last several years. Dr. Kapadia will discuss whether this step is necessary during your consultation.

Non-Surgical Alternatives

For patients with mild under-eye bags, filler injections can provide a non-surgical option to camouflage puffiness. Dr. Kapadia can determine whether surgery or fillers are better suited to your needs during your consultation.
