Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty and Eyelid Rejuvenation

Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty and Eyelid Rejuvenation in Bakersfield, CA

At Modern Aesthetic Institute in Bakersfield, California, Dr. Joseph H. Chang offers specialized lower eyelid blepharoplasty and eyelid rejuvenation procedures to address under-eye concerns such as bags, dark circles, and sagging skin. With over 25 years of experience, Dr. Chang combines technical precision with artistic vision to deliver natural-looking, rejuvenated results.

What Is Lower Blepharoplasty?

Lower eyelid blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to improve the appearance of the under-eye area by removing or repositioning excess fat, skin, and muscle. This technique effectively reduces puffiness, smooths wrinkles, and eliminates under-eye bags, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

Dr. Chang’s Tailored Approach

Understanding that each patient has unique anatomical features and aesthetic goals, Dr. Chang employs customized techniques to achieve optimal outcomes:

  • Transconjunctival Approach: Incisions are made inside the lower eyelid, leaving no visible scars. This method is ideal for patients with prominent under-eye bags but minimal excess skin.
  • Fat Repositioning: Instead of removing fat, Dr. Chang redistributes it to smooth the transition between the lower eyelid and cheek, reducing hollowing and creating a seamless contour.
  • Skin Pinch and CO2 Laser Resurfacing: For patients with loose or textured skin, Dr. Chang may incorporate skin tightening techniques or advanced laser treatments to further refine the under-eye area.

The Importance of Fat Repositioning

Traditional methods of fat removal can sometimes leave the eyes looking hollow or unnatural. Dr. Chang prioritizes fat repositioning—a technique that enhances the under-eye contour by redistributing fat rather than removing it. This innovative approach ensures results that not only look youthful and balanced but also age gracefully over time.

Recovery Process

Recovery times vary based on individual factors, but most patients can expect to resume normal activities within 10 days.

Recovery Timeline:

  • Day 7: Bandage and suture removal.
  • Day 10: Return to work (or sooner for remote work).
  • 3 Weeks: Swelling is significantly reduced, and 75% of recovery is complete.
  • 3 Months: Full results become visible as swelling completely subsides.

Dr. Chang provides detailed post-operative instructions and remains accessible to address any concerns throughout your recovery.
