Refresh tired-looking eyes and restore a smoother, brighter under-eye appearance with lower blepharoplasty at DeRosa Facial Plastic Surgery on Newbury Street in Boston. Double board-certified facial plastic surgeon Dr. Jaimie DeRosa customizes this procedure to address under-eye bags, puffiness, hollowness, and loose skin while helping you maintain a natural look.
Smooth and Tighten the Under-Eye Area
Lower blepharoplasty is a facial plastic surgery that improves the appearance of the lower eyelids and under-eye area. Dr. DeRosa carefully removes or repositions excess fat, tightens loose skin, and smooths the transition between the lower eyelid and cheek. This can reduce puffiness, under-eye bags, wrinkles, and hollowing that often create a tired or aged appearance. Because every face ages differently, Dr. DeRosa takes an individualized approach to help you look refreshed, rested, and naturally like yourself.

EYELID SURGERY OVERVIEW
Do I Need Lower Blepharoplasty?
If you feel like your eyes look tired, puffy, or older than you feel, lower blepharoplasty may be worth considering. At DeRosa Facial Plastic Surgery, Dr. DeRosa takes time to understand your concerns and determine whether surgery, nonsurgical treatments, or a combination approach is best for your goals. You may be a good candidate if:
- You notice persistent under-eye bags or puffiness
- You feel your eyes make you look tired or worn down
- You have loose or crepey skin beneath the eyes
- You see hollowness or shadowing under the lower eyelids
- You want natural-looking facial rejuvenation
- You want to look fresher while still looking like yourself
- You are in good overall health and have realistic expectations
- You are bothered by changes that makeup or skincare cannot fully improve
How is Lower Blepharoplasty Performed?
Your procedure begins with a thorough consultation, during which Dr. DeRosa evaluates your lower eyelid anatomy, skin elasticity, fat distribution, and cheek support to determine the most appropriate surgical approach. Surgery is performed in DeRosa Center’s private, on-site QUAD A-certified surgical suite. Dr. DeRosa may create a small incision just beneath the lash line or within the lower eyelid using a transconjunctival approach that leaves no visible external scar.
Through these incisions, Dr. DeRosa carefully removes, repositions, or redistributes protruding fat pockets that create under-eye bags while preserving natural volume and contour. If loose skin or muscle laxity is present, the lower eyelid tissues are tightened, and excess skin is conservatively trimmed to avoid an overdone appearance. The result is a smoother under-eye area that still looks natural.

Lower Blepharoplasty FAQs
Will I Look Different After Lower Blepharoplasty?
The goal of lower blepharoplasty is to help you look refreshed and well-rested without changing your natural facial appearance. Dr. DeRosa focuses on beautifully subtle results.
Will There Be Visible Scars?
Incisions are carefully hidden either just below the lash line or inside the lower eyelid. In most cases, scars heal very discreetly and become difficult to notice over time.
Can Lower Blepharoplasty Be Combined With Other Treatments?
Yes. Lower blepharoplasty is often combined with treatments such as laser resurfacing, skin tightening, or injectables to create more comprehensive facial rejuvenation results.
