Four Eyelid Blepharoplasty And Lower Lid Tightening

This patient consulted with Dr. Lamperti looking to improve his upper lid skin drooping and lower lid bags. Dr. Lamperti performed an upper eyelid blepharoplasty to trim the excess upper lid skin. He then performed a skin-muscle flap lower lid blepharoplasty to allow him to conservatively reduce the fat bags and excess skin in the area. He concurrently performed a lateral tarsal strip to tighten the lower lid tendons on each side. This was done to prevent post-surgery lower lid retraction since the patient's pre-surgical exam was notable for age related lower lid laxity. In the 6 month after photo you can see how the patient has much improved upper lid show which has addressed his visual field blockage. The lower lids now have a smoother contour with much less redundant, baggy skin. Importantly, the patient maintains a natural, non-operated appearance.
