Farrior, M.D., F.A.C.S., our team is experienced, skilled, and excited to provide exceptional patient care and incredible aesthetic outcomes.

Lower Blepharoplasty Candidates

Is It Right For You And Your Needs?

Candidates for lower blepharoplasty in Tampa are typically those looking to address concerns like undereye bags, wrinkles, and tear trough deformities. Ideal candidates should be in good health, non-smokers, and free from chronic, uncontrolled medical conditions. Certain health issues, such as uncontrolled hypertension or severe dry eye, may disqualify patients from this procedure.

Consultation and Preparation for Lower Blepharoplasty

Personalized Care, Exceptional Results

During your consultation with Dr. Farrior, potential patients can expect a thorough discussion of aesthetic goals, a detailed review of medical history, and a personalized treatment plan. This procedure is often combined with an upper blepharoplasty or other facial procedures to achieve a comprehensive result and concurrent recovery. Preparation for lower blepharoplasty may involve adjusting medications, avoiding specific supplements, and completing any necessary lab work.

Your Lower Blepharoplasty Procedure

A Surgical Approach With An Artistic Touch

Lower blepharoplasty eyelid surgery generally takes about an hour to complete and can be performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the patient's needs. Dr. Farrior will make a discreet incision inside the lower eyelid or along the lower lash line. He will then carefully refine the skin, tissue, and fat to create a smoother and more youthful-looking undereye area.

Results, Recovery, and Aftercare for Lower Blepharoplasty

Smooth Healing, Refined Results

Recovery from this procedure typically takes about seven to ten days, and mild bruising or swelling is common but should subside on its own within a week. To encourage healing, patients will be advised to use cold compresses, keep their heads elevated while sleeping, and follow all aftercare instructions. Full results are usually visible within four to six weeks as residual swelling subsides. Results are considered permanent but may be affected by future aging.
