What is Lower Eyelid Surgery?
Lower eyelid surgery, or lower blepharoplasty, is a cosmetic surgery that lifts and rejuvenates the lower eyelids and the undereye area. Lower eyelid surgery can smooth fine lines and creases under the eyes, as well as resuspend sagging bags of fat that descend as you age. The result is a smoother, more youthful look to the undereyes.

Am I A Good Candidate for Lower Eyelid Surgery?
If you’re experiencing the following, you’re likely a good candidate:
- Sagging skin
- Dark bags
- Fine lines and creases
- Lower eyelids that pull away from the eyes
- Hollow or sunken undereyes
The Benefits of Lower Eyelid Surgery
Lower eyelid surgery can completely rejuvenate your face, as the undereyes are one of the first places to experience aging. If you’re bothered by creases and hollows that don’t seem to go away even with cosmetics or fillers, lower eyelid surgery is an ideal option. With a smoother and fuller undereye region, you can look more refreshed. Finally, if you experience dry eye because of lower eyelids that pull away from the eyes, lower eyelid surgery can help.
The Lower Eyelid Surgery Procedure
Dr. Rostami performs lower eyelid surgery using local anesthetic so you can avoid possible complications with general anesthesia. All eyelid surgeries are performed at our on-site, cutting edge surgical suite in McLean. She will create careful incisions in the lower eyelid to gain access to the underlying tissues and resuspend them. Once your new look is created, you can return home to recover.
Lower Eyelid Surgery Results
Lower eyelid surgery requires 1-2 weeks of recovery. Dr. Rostami and our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions, including how to manage swelling and bruising. At 2-3 weeks, you can begin to enjoy your results, with a more refreshed look and brighter undereyes. With a tailored skincare and non-surgical treatment regimen developed by Dr. Rostami, your results can last for years.
