Hollow lower eyelid

This section of the forum is dedicated to discussions on various surgical techniques for facial rejuvenation, including fat transfer/fat grafting, browlift, blepharoplasty (cosmetic eyelid surgery), facelift, etc. Also, this category includes questions on hand rejuvenation via fat grafting. (Of note, Dr. Lam does not perform body rejuvenation except for hand fat grafting)

Hollow lower eyelid

Postby nvsday » Sat May 30, 2009 10:23 pm

Hello Dr. Lam:

Can you treat the hollowness are of the lower eyelid with fat? I am concern that if you inject FAT into the upper cheeks area, which I need because my face is flat, that this would make the hollowness worst...Can you please advise if you inded use fat for this area and do you treat tear troughs the same.

Regards and thanks for all the GOOD info on your website. :D

let's put it this way. Yes, in almost every case. I would say in about 98% of fat transfers, I am filling the lower eyelid area. It is very important to achieve balance.
best,
