Lower Blepharoplasty
Restoring a smooth under-eye that blends into the cheek — not simply removing fat.
Lower blepharoplasty addresses under-eye bags and lax lower-lid skin that make the face look tired. The goal is not simply to remove fat, but to restore a smooth under-eye that blends into the cheek. At Ultimo Clinic, it is performed by dr. Grace Boaz, Sp.BP-RE.
INDICATIONS
What It Addresses
- Under-eye fat bags
- Lax or crepey lower-lid skin
- Tear-trough shadowing in selected cases
- A lower lid that looks tired despite adequate rest
TWO MAIN APPROACHES
Transconjunctival (from inside the lid, with no external incision — for patients whose main issue is fat/bags) and Transcutaneous (an incision just below the lash line — when excess skin needs removing). In many cases, fat repositioning is preferred over removal, to avoid a hollow under-eye.

Recovery
Initial swelling & bruising generally subside within 7–14 days; the result matures gradually.
Result
A long-lasting, natural-looking result; natural aging continues over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between transconjunctival and transcutaneous?
Transconjunctival is done from inside the lid with no external incision — suited to when the main issue is fat bags. Transcutaneous uses a fine incision below the lash line — chosen when excess skin needs removing.
Is the fat removed or repositioned?
Often it is repositioned rather than simply removed, so the under-eye doesn't look hollow and the result is more natural. The approach is determined at consultation.
