About the Procedure

What Is Lower Blepharoplasty?

With age, the fat and skin beneath the eyes loosen and begin to bulge. The under eye wrinkles deepen, and your face starts to look tired and older than it should. Lower blepharoplasty, also called lower eyelid wrinkle surgery, removes the loosened fat to make the area under your eyes bright and smooth again, correcting your gaze into one that looks noticeably younger.

Is It For You?

Who Benefits from Lower Blepharoplasty?

Operation Method

How the Surgery Is Performed

01

Design

Before surgery, Dr. Lee plans and designs the procedure together with you during the consultation.

02

Conjunctival Approach

Sagging skin is removed, and through an incision in the conjunctiva the bulging fat is removed and repositioned.

03

Fat Grafting Where Needed

If the tear trough is deeply hollowed, fat repositioning or fat grafting is performed to fill it.

04

Finishing

The surgery is completed, leaving a naturally bright and smooth under eye area.
