Lower Blepharoplasty (Aging Eye Rejuvenation)

This is an eye procedure for middle-aged patients that removes unnecessary skin and fat under the eyes through an incision below the eyelashes. Depending on each individual’s condition, wrinkles are tightened, fat is removed or repositioned, and the muscles are secured to the periosteum to improve signs of aging under the eyes, such as under-eye wrinkles and fat bags.

Recommended for

· Those who look older due to deep under-eye wrinkles · Those who look tired due to under-eye fat bags · Those who appear to have presbyopia due to sagging under-eye skin

Eye procedures for middle-aged patients require a different approach from the start

When the eyelids sag, they may cause contact dermatitis, and aging-related sagging of the skin and fat around the eyes can make one appear to have presbyopia. Therefore, for eye procedures for middle-aged patients, it is important to create naturally younger-looking eyes by improving skin wrinkles and sagging rather than making dramatic changes to the shape or size of the eyes. · Drooping eyelids · Pressure on the outer corners of the eyes · Under-eye wrinkles · Formation of under-eye fat bags
