Lower blepharoplasty, also called lower lid/ eyelid surgery is to remove excess skin, muscles, or fat tissues in the under-eye area. It is one of the most effective cosmetic procedures to improve the eye bags and wrinkles under the eye.

Why is fat repositioning necessary to be done with lower eyelid surgery? If the lower eyelid surgery addresses the under-eye wrinkles, excess skin, or fat tissues, fat redistributing involves distributing excess fat tissues in one area into the hollow under eye areas.

That way, the doctor can remove eye bags and wrinkles and fill deep hollow under the eyes, such as tear trough.

When fat is redistributed, it will work as a filler injection. Unlike fillers, your fat does not dissolve when time passes. Fat repositioning is a delicate procedure with excellent results. Also, it will help you look far younger and fresher.

Before the surgery, during the consultation, a plastic surgeon will examine your lower eyelids and decided whether you need to undergo a lower eyelid surgery only or need the fat tissue redistributed at the same time.

It is necessary to ensure that the surgeon who will proceed with the surgery is a board-certified plastic surgeon with abundant clinical experience.
