Blepharoplasty Before and After > Asian Eye Lift (Blepharoplasty)

This set of blepharoplasty before and after photos features a 62 year old Asian gentleman from Albany, NY who presented with puffiness below his lower eyelids (eye bags). Contributing factors included a family/genetic predisposition for lower eye lid bags and allergies. He felt that the puffiness made him appear tired and older than his otherwise healthy and youthful complexion would suggest. Complicating the situation however, was a retinal detachment to the right eye fifteen years previously. After obtaining clearance from his ophthalmologist, the patient underwent a lower lid blepharoplasty utilizing a subciliary incision. The herniated fat which caused the puffiness was removed along with a small strip of skin. The lower lids were also stabilized to prevent the possibility of any post-op drooping. Photos taken 3 months later show a completely healed patient enjoying the result of his lower lid blepharoplasty. His once tired and puffy eyes are now bright and full of life - creating a subtle yet significant improvement in the overall appearance of his face.
