Lower eyelid blepharoplasty can be technically more challenging than upper eyelid blepharoplasty due to its slimmer margin for error. Eyelid malposition and other unfavorable results are more common if performed incorrectly. The surgery performed will be individual to you. For example, eyelid tendons may need to be tightened, skin may need to be removed, fat may need to be excised, and/or the mid-face may need to be lifted.
