Blepharoplasty Before & After Results in NYC #49602

This 34-year-old female sought treatment for lower eyelid dermatochalasis and excess under-eye fullness. After a personalized consultation with Dr. Claudia Kim, she elected to undergo lower blepharoplasty, a facial rejuvenation procedure designed to address excess tissue and improve the contour of the lower eyelid area.

During surgery, Dr. Claudia Kim used a transconjunctival approach, creating an incision inside the lower eyelid to access the underlying orbital fat compartments. The medial, central, and lateral pockets of excess fat were carefully identified and removed while preserving important surrounding anatomy, including the inferior oblique muscle. This technique allowed the lower eyelid area to be refined without an external skin incision.

The lower eyelid contour was carefully evaluated throughout the procedure to assess symmetry and create a balanced appearance. By targeting excess orbital fat, lower eyelid surgery can help address the appearance of under-eye bags and fullness that may contribute to a tired-looking appearance.

For patients considering blepharoplasty, treatment is customized according to individual anatomy, concerns, and aesthetic goals. Lower blepharoplasty may be performed alone or as part of a broader facial rejuvenation plan.

This before-and-after case demonstrates the potential of lower blepharoplasty in NYC to refine the under-eye area and create a smoother, more balanced lower eyelid contour. Dr. Claudia Kim takes a personalized approach to eyelid surgery, focusing on precise techniques and natural-looking facial proportions.
