Lower eyelid bags

Pouches that form and the lower eyelids are usually from bulging fat pads that typically rest underneath the eye.

Many people find that eyelid bags makes her look tired and older.  No creams or lasers work effectively in this area.  Fillers for underneath the eyes can also add to the problem rather than correcting sometimes.

Lower eyelid bags are best treated by blepharoplasty surgery.

The scar can be made underneath the lash line or on the inside depending on each patient's individual shape in the surgeon's preference.

 

Surgery takes about an hour and patients are quite bruised for about a week.  Results gradually improve over a few weeks and are typically permanent.
