Most patients can return to their normal routine within a few days after the procedure. However, complete tissue healing takes some time. The final result gradually forms as the tissues recover.

About the service
Lower blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to correct changes in the lower eyelid area. With age, fat protrusions, swelling, and skin laxity may develop in this region.
These changes often lead to the appearance of characteristic under-eye bags that can make the face look tired or older.
Lower blepharoplasty helps eliminate these concerns, smooth the contour of the lower eyelid, and improve the overall appearance of the area around the eyes.
Indications for lower blepharoplasty
The procedure may be recommended for patients experiencing age-related or anatomical changes in the lower eyelid area.
The most common indications:
• fat herniations under the eyes
• under-eye bags
• excess skin of the lower eyelids
• puffiness under the eyes
• wrinkles in the lower eyelid area
During the consultation, the plastic surgeon evaluates the condition of the skin, muscles, and fat tissues to determine the most appropriate correction technique.
How the surgery is performed
Lower blepharoplasty can be performed under local or general anesthesia depending on the extent of the procedure. Incisions may be placed just below the lash line or on the inner surface of the eyelid.
During the surgery, the surgeon removes or redistributes fat tissues and, if necessary, removes excess skin.
The procedure usually takes between one and two hours.
Individual approach to correction
Before undergoing lower blepharoplasty, the patient has a consultation with a plastic surgeon. The doctor evaluates the anatomical features of the eyelids, the condition of the skin, and the degree of age-related changes.
Based on this evaluation, an individualized correction plan is created. In some cases, the procedure may be combined with other rejuvenation methods.

Frequently asked questions about lower blepharoplasty
Blepharoplasty
What is the difference between lower and upper blepharoplasty
Lower blepharoplasty focuses on correcting the area under the eyes. During the procedure, fat herniations, under-eye bags, and excess skin can be addressed. Upper blepharoplasty, on the other hand, corrects the upper eyelids.
Will scars remain after lower blepharoplasty
If the incision is placed just below the lash line, the scar is usually barely noticeable. In the case of the transconjunctival technique, the incision is made inside the eyelid. This allows the procedure to be performed without visible external scars.
Will under-eye bags disappear after the procedure
Lower blepharoplasty effectively removes fat herniations and reduces under-eye bags. As a result, the contour of the lower eyelid becomes smoother. The eyes appear fresher and more rested.
How long the results of lower blepharoplasty last
The results of the procedure usually last for many years. The surgery significantly improves the appearance of the under-eye area. The longevity of the result depends on individual characteristics of the body.
Can lower blepharoplasty be combined with other procedures
In some cases, the procedure may be combined with other facial rejuvenation techniques. For example, it may be performed together with a facelift or аппарат-based treatments. This approach allows achieving a more comprehensive aesthetic result.
