Lower Eyelid Surgery in Los Angeles
If you are noticing bags under your eyes, puffiness, or a tired appearance that doesn’t go away, even after a good night’s sleep, Lower Eyelid Surgery at Moein Surgical Arts in Los Angeles could be the solution. This advanced cosmetic procedure is designed to restore a more refreshed, youthful look by addressing the signs of aging and excess fat in the lower eyelid area.
What Is Lower Eyelid Surgery?
Lower Eyelid Surgery, also known as lower blepharoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure that removes or repositions excess fat, skin, and muscle beneath the eyes. The result is a smoother contour under the eyes, reducing puffiness, sagging, and dark shadows. This procedure is commonly performed to correct:

-
Under-eye bags
-
Loose or sagging skin
-
Wrinkles or fine lines
-
A hollowed appearance due to fat loss or aging
This surgery can be performed alone or in combination with other facial procedures such as upper eyelid surgery or facelift for more comprehensive rejuvenation.

Surgery Day
Duration: The procedure typically lasts between 1 to 2 hours, depending on the complexity of your surgical plan
Anesthesia: We offer two types of anesthesia to ensure your comfort. You may choose local anesthesia combined with sedation for a more relaxed experience, or opt for general anesthesia, which will keep you completely unconscious throughout the procedure.
Incision types:
Transconjunctival Incision: This technique involves making an incision inside the lower eyelid, which leaves no visible scars and is often used for fat removal or repositioning.
External Incision: For those requiring the removal of excess skin, an incision is made just below the lash line, which can minimize the appearance of scarring post-recovery.
Techniques used:
- Fat removal or repositioning: This technique aims to reduce puffiness and under-eye bags, creating a smoother, more youthful contour.
- Skin tightening: Loose skin will be addressed, providing a firmer appearance to the eyelids.
- Laser resurfacing (optional): This optional procedure can be included to enhance skin texture, reducing wrinkles and improving overall skin tone around the eyes.
Aftercare
You’ll return home the same day. We’ll provide detailed post-op instructions, cold compresses, and medication to manage discomfort.
Combining Procedures for Full Facial Rejuvenation
Many patients choose to combine Lower Eyelid Surgery with:
-
Upper Eyelid Surgery (for drooping upper lids)
-
Facelift or Mini Facelift
-
Brow Lift
-
CO2 Laser Resurfacing (for improved skin texture)

Combining procedures can enhance your overall facial harmony and reduce the need for separate recovery periods.
