I’ve Had a Lower Blepharoplasty. Can Under-eye Fat Return?

Lower blepharoplasty is a procedure to improve saggy skin and remove excess fat under the eyes.

However, there is a question that we usually receive from many of our patients during consultation. They wonder whether the under-eye fat becomes saggy or not, and whether an additional lower blepharoplasty is required in that case.

So, can under-eye fat return after a lower blepharoplasty?

The answer is that under-eye fat can still sag again even after a lower blepharoplasty.

Our bodies age and eyes are parts that age the fastest. 

Therefore, an additional surgery may be necessary depending on the degree of sagging. When it comes to eye wrinkles, it is important that you consult with a plastic surgeon before deciding on undergoing the surgery because eye is an area that requires precise techniques.
