About Lower Blepharoplasty
What is a lower blepharoplasty?
A cosmetic procedure designed to rejuvenate the under-eye area.
Aging causes the breakdown of key structural proteins in the skin and connective tissues. The lower eyelid structure is very similar to a hammock. With aging and the loss of structural proteins, the lower eyelid loses its snap and begins to sag.
The fat layer underneath the skin pushes outward, creating eye bags, and the skin becomes loose. These issues can be corrected via our Houston lower blepharoplasty procedure. Lower blepharoplasty, also known as under-eye surgery, is a cosmetic procedure designed to rejuvenate the under-eye area.
