Procedure: Lower Eyelid Surgery
Surgeon: Dr. Batniji
Location: Newport Beach, Ca
Procedure Detail: This 46 year old female presented for evaluation of her lower eyelids. Specifically, she was concerned with hollowness beneath the eyes (aka. Tear trough deformity or nasojugal groove), an irregular ridge/crease contour of the left lower eyelid, fullness/bulging of the lower eyelids, and fine lines/wrinkles of the lower eyelids. Dr. Batniji performed the following:
Lower lid blepharoplasty with fat transposition and lateral retinacular suspension (lateral canthopexy) suture. In this procedure, Dr. Batniji re-positioned the lower eyelid fat that created bulging of the lower eyelid and placed that fat within the hollowness beneath the eyes. In doing so, Dr. Batniji created a youthful contour between the lower eyelid and cheek. Dr. Batniji used the lateral retinacular suspension (lateral canthopexy) suture to maintain the youthful contour of the lower eyelid position.
Plasma resurfacing of the lower eyelid skin to address the fine lines/wrinkles; this was performed at the same time as surgery.
Botox injection to address the crow’s feet.
