Lower Blepharoplasty North Charleston, SC | Revitalizing Eye Rejuvenation

Understanding Lower Blepharoplasty

Lower blepharoplasty is a specialized surgical procedure designed to address aging concerns around the lower eyelids. As time passes, the delicate eye area can develop puffiness, wrinkles, and a perpetually tired appearance. This procedure offers a comprehensive solution to restore vitality and youthfulness to the eye region.

Key Concerns Addressed by Lower Blepharoplasty

• Sagging lower eyelid skin
• Excess fat pockets creating under-eye bags
• Dark circles and volume loss
• Potential vision impairment from drooping skin

Surgical Procedure Details

The lower blepharoplasty procedure involves precise surgical techniques to remove excess skin and fat. National Facial Plastic & Laser Surgery utilizes advanced methods to ensure minimal scarring, typically creating incisions within natural eyelid creases or inside the lower eyelid.

Procedure Highlights

• Duration: Approximately one hour
• Anesthesia: Local and twilight anesthesia
• Incision techniques: Transconjunctival and transcutaneous approaches

Recovery and Results

Most patients experience a relatively quick recovery period. Bruising and swelling typically subside within 7 to 10 days, with full results becoming apparent around two weeks post-surgery. Patients can usually resume normal activities and apply makeup after the initial healing phase.

Candidate Considerations

Ideal candidates for lower blepharoplasty include men and women experiencing under-eye concerns such as puffiness, dark circles, or excess skin. Patients should be prepared to temporarily discontinue smoking and alcohol consumption before and after the procedure.

Potential Enhancements

• Fat transfer to restore volume
