Blepharoplasty Before & After: Removed Excess Fat From the Lower Eyelids

Featured Patient

Our beautiful patient is seen one year after rhinoplasty surgery and lower eyelid blepharoplasty surgery. When she first came to our office, she had both both functional and cosmetic issues with her nose. She had congenital external nasal valve weakness and collapse that was repaired with Lateral crural extension grafts, and a septoplasty. She did not like the droopiness of her nose or her overprojected nasal profile appearance. Additionally, she did not like the appearance of her congenital lower eyelid bags. Before the commencement of rhinoplasty surgery, her medial and middle fat pads were removed with a transconjunctival approach such that there are no external incisions. You can see a natural looking and improved appearance of her nose and lower eyelids, and she is breathing much better.

Blepharoplasty #5

The purpose of upper blepharoplasty is to remove excess skin, muscle, and fat from the upper lids to create a youthful upper eye lid crease. Scars are well concealed in the upper lid crease, and are invisible when your eyes are open. Our patient’s scars are still healing and appear red, eight weeks after surgery. These scars fade to white typically by six months after surgery. In this case, only skin was removed since there was no excessive muscle or bulging fat pads.
