The aging process often translates thv the eyelids.

If the typical puffiness and wrinkles are present, a lower eyelid correction may offer a solution.

A lower eyelid correction can be done through an incision on the inside of the eyelid (transconjunctival) or through an incision along the outside under the eyelash line. Which technique is best suited for you will be discussed at the consultation.

During the eyelid correction the excess fat is removed or redistributed downward so that the disturbing groove under the bags is also treated. If there is too much skin, minimal skin will be removed and the eyelid will be strengthened.
