Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty

If you have persistent dark circles or bags under your eyes, you know how frustrating it is to always look tired, even when you’re well-rested. Unfortunately, many patients think they have swelling or puffiness under their eyes when, in reality, the bags they see are caused by pockets of fat. Paired with thin, wrinkled, under-eye skin, patients can look tired and even ill. There are different surgical approaches to lower eyelid blepharoplasty, and Dr. Sina will choose the best option for your needs.

A quad eyelid lift treats both the upper and lower eyelids in the same procedure, creating a striking transformation to the eye area and a noticeably refreshed and vibrant appearance.

How Is Lower Eyelid Surgery Performed?

Your Consultation

The first step to any plastic surgery procedure is a comprehensive consultation with your surgeon. During this meeting, you’ll meet Dr. Sina and discuss your goals for the procedure. He will also examine your eyelids to determine if lower eyelid surgery will achieve the look you want. The goal of your consultation is for you to understand the procedure, its possibilities and limitations, and what you can realistically expect from the results. Dr. Sina will never convince anyone to undergo surgery—his goal is to give you all the information you need so that you can make an informed decision.

If you and Dr. Sina decide that lower eyelid surgery is ideal for you, he will create a custom surgical plan that best addresses your goals and needs. He will then provide you with an accurate cost estimate and pre-surgical instructions.

The Lower Eyelid Surgery Procedure

As is expected, each patient will have a slightly different surgical plan based on their goals and facial anatomy.

There are different approaches for lower blepharoplasty, depending on your concerns. Lower blepharoplasty to treat sagging fatty pockets typically entails the following:

The incision is placed inside the lower eyelid
Dr. Sina removes or repositions the excess fat pockets
He then stitches the fat tissue in a pleasing, youthful position

If lower eyelid skin is the primary concern:

The incision is placed near your lower lash line or eyelid crease
Dr. Sina tightens loose skin and can reposition fat pockets as necessary
He carefully closes the incisions

How Much Does Lower Eyelid Surgery Cost in Las Vegas?

The cost of lower blepharoplasty in Las Vegas varies, depending on factors such as the technique used, the level of necessary revision, whether combined procedures are used, and the expertise of your surgeon. Higher-caliber surgeons command higher surgical costs, as their experience denotes more training, a higher chance of an elegant result, and a lower risk of a disappointing result.

Once a surgical plan has been created and agreed upon, Dr. Sina will provide you with an accurate cost estimate.

What Is Lower Eyelid Surgery Recovery Like?

Right after your procedure, you will be a little groggy, a little sore, and bandaged. You will need a responsible driver to pick you up and ensure you get home safely. Your eyes may feel dry as well. Dr. Sina will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions—we recommend that you give a copy to a friend or family member so they can help you for the first couple of days. These instructions may have the following recommendations:

Use cold compresses to reduce swelling and discomfort
Be sure to take your medications as prescribed
Avoid contact lenses for a week
Avoid heavy lifting, makeup, and direct sunlight

Lower blepharoplasty recovery is relatively mild; you will likely be able to return to work after a week, depending on the level of activity required at your job. The key to a successful recovery is resting as much as possible and following your instructions from Dr. Sina. The majority of swelling and bruising should be reduced by the end of your second week of recovery.

When Will I See My Lower Eyelid Surgery Results?

It will be difficult to see your results in the first few days, but as you heal, you will begin to see the smooth planes of your under eyes without loose skin or puffiness detracting from your appearance.

Most patients find that as they fully heal, about two to three months after their lower eyelid surgery, they look 10 to 15 years younger! Patients in their 20s or 30s will find that they no longer look tired or sad. You can expect a revitalized appearance with a more alert, youthful aesthetic.
