Under eye hollows can have a negative impact on how we perceive ourselves. The deep shallow areas that produce visible shadows are an unfortunate part of aging and aren’t easily treated with non-surgical methods. At Stein Plastic Surgery, we understand how frustrating under eye hollows can be and how difficult they are to treat. That’s why Dr. Stein enlists the help of blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) to help patients achieve instant, yet long-lasting results.

Lower Blepharoplasty Recovery
Although eyelid surgery is an outpatient procedure, you’ll need to take several days to adequately heal. Most patients can return to non-strenuous activities within a few days. Side effects are typically minimal thanks to recent surgical advancements but may include swelling, redness, bruising, tenderness, and/or blurred vision.
Results from Lower Eyelid Surgery
One of the best things about blepharoplasty procedures are the near instant results. While some post-surgical swelling can mask the outcome of your procedure, many patients see a dramatic change the very first day. Eyelid surgery can take 10-15 years off your appearance and has long-term benefits. In fact, most patients are so satisfied with their procedure that they only have one in a lifetime.
Is Lower Blepharoplasty Right for You?
Lower blepharoplasty might be a good fit for you if you’re bothered by dark, or excessive under eye hollows. For patients who would like to achieve total eye rejuvenation can opt for a brow lift and both upper and lower eyelid lifts. Patients should be in otherwise good general health before undergoing eyelid surgery. The best way to determine your candidacy for the procedure is through an in-person consultation with a board-certified facial plastic surgeon such as Dr. Stein.
