Lower Eyelid Lift
The lower eyelids play a key role in your overall facial appearance and eye function. Over time, this delicate area can show signs of fatigue such as droop, puffiness, under-eye bags, and wrinkles. A lower eyelid lift—also known as lower eyelid blepharoplasty—can restore a youthful and refreshed look by reducing sagging, tightening skin, and improving eyelid shape and position. This procedure is effective for both men and women seeking natural, rejuvenated results.

What is Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty refers to eyelid surgery that improves the appearance and/or function of the eyelids.
- Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty: Targets saggy skin and fat bulges in the upper lids.
- Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty: Focuses on reducing under-eye bags, puffiness, dark circles, hollows, droop, and sagging skin.
A lower eyelid lift can dramatically enhance the aesthetics of the eyes, preserve natural expressions, and contribute to overall facial rejuvenation. It can be performed alone or combined with other procedures for more comprehensive results.
What Can Lower Eyelid Surgery Accomplish?
A lower eyelid lift can:
- Reduce under-eye bags from fat pockets or swelling
- Smooth wrinkles and fine lines for a youthful look
- Tighten sagging skin for better contour
- Improve overall facial balance and symmetry
- Boost self-confidence with a refreshed, alert appearance
- Diminish dark circles and hollows under the eyes
