Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery) Before & After Case 48

Lower eyelid bags can develop from natural aging and sun exposure, while some Washington DC patients may be born with excess eye fat. A lower eyelid lift can address excess skin, bulging fat, or sagging muscle. Blepharoplasty, or cosmetic eyelid surgery, is typically performed via local anesthesia with mild sedation to help smooth this facial area.

This Washington DC area man had two previous blepharoplasties of the lower eyelid for eye bags and excess fat by another plastic surgeon. While the prior cosmetic surgery reduced his eye bags, surgery did not stop the natural aging process. As a result, the lower eyelid bags returned several years later. He consulted with Dr. Chaboki, a Washington DC eyelid cosmetic surgeon, to review his current aesthetic options. He underwent revision lower eyelid surgery to remove a little more eye fat and lift the lower eyelid skin and muscle. His eyes are now smoother and his face has become rejuvenated.
