Lower eyelid lift – lower blepharoplasty

Lower eyelid lift – lower blepharoplasty

We not only perceive our environment with our eyes, but they also significantly shape our appearance. Bags under the eyes make us look very tired, tired and older. The cause of bags under the eyes is age-related, genetic, but an unhealthy lifestyle and the resulting stress and lack of sleep can also cause bags under the eyes. This causes excess fat to form and bulge forward. As the skin around our eyes is very delicate and thin, the bulging of the fat creates the classic bags under the eyes. The muscles and connective tissue can also become slack and the bags under the eyes become more prominent.

During a lower eyelid lift, small incisions are made to gently remove the fat pads around the eyes, tighten the excess and sagging muscle and remove excess skin. The incisions are made just below the inner eyelids so that a scar is barely visible after the operation, if at all. The special technique fixes the tightened tissue in such a way that the result is long-lasting and sustainable. The procedure is an optimal and long-term solution for removing bags under the eyes and giving your face a natural freshness and expressive radiance.

There are different forms of lower blepharoplasty:

  • Skin removal only (pinch lower blepharoplasty) = local anesthesia = 45-60min
  • Skin removal and muscle tightening and, if necessary, canthopexy (tightening of the lateral eyelid) = local anesthesia = 90-120min
  • Skin removal and muscle tightening and, if necessary, canthopexy (tightening of the lateral eyelid)Additional repositioning of the orbital fat tissue = deep plane blepharoplasty = general anesthesia = 120 min
  • Deep plane lower blepharoplasty combined with a midface lift = general anesthesia = 180 min

Questions & answers about Morpheus8

Morpheus8 is a minimally invasive procedure that tightens the deeper layers of the skin, reduces wrinkles, and improves skin texture. It stimulates collagen production, giving a rejuvenated appearance.

The device combines microneedles with fractional radiofrequency energy to penetrate deeper into the skin and deliver heat energy. This stimulates skin cell regeneration, supporting collagen production and skin tightening.

Morpheus8 can be used on the face, neck, décolleté, and other body areas affected by wrinkles, sagging skin, or stretch marks. It is particularly effective for treating hard-to-reach areas.

A numbing cream is applied before the treatment to increase comfort. Most patients report only minor discomfort during the procedure, often described as a mild tingling or burning sensation. These sensations are due to the microneedling technology and the radiofrequency energy used to penetrate the skin layers and stimulate collagen production.

After the treatment, mild redness and swelling may occur, similar to a mild sunburn. These symptoms typically subside within a few hours to a few days. Some patients may also experience slight sensitivity or tightness in the treated areas, which usually resolves quickly.

It is recommended to avoid sun exposure after the treatment and use sunscreen with a high SPF to support healing and protect the skin from further damage. Makeup can generally be applied after 1-2 days, once the skin has calmed down.

In the weeks following the treatment, the skin continues to improve as collagen production is stimulated. The best results are often visible after a few weeks, with continuous improvement over several months.

The recovery time after a Morpheus8 treatment is relatively short. You can usually return to work immediately and resume your daily activities. You are typically socially presentable after 2 to 3 days, as any mild redness or swelling subsides during this time. Physical activities can generally be resumed after 2 to 4 days, depending on individual healing. Activities such as swimming or visiting a sauna should be avoided for about 1 week to allow the treated skin to heal completely.

Typically, 1-3 sessions are required at intervals of 4-6 weeks to achieve optimal results. The number of treatments may vary depending on skin condition and desired results.

The benefits of Morpheus8 are varied, especially for those seeking a non-invasive skin-tightening and rejuvenation treatment.
  • Non-invasive and minimally invasive: Morpheus8 combines microneedles with radiofrequency to tighten the skin and stimulate collagen production without surgery or long downtimes.
  • Skin tightening and collagen stimulation: The radiofrequency energy penetrates deep into the skin layers and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, leading to smoother, tighter skin.
  • Improved skin texture: The treatment reduces fine lines, wrinkles, scars, and uneven skin textures. Acne scars and stretch marks can also be significantly improved.
  • Suitable for various body areas: Morpheus8 can be used not only on the face but also on the body, such as the neck, décolleté, abdomen, legs, or arms, to tighten and improve sagging skin.
  • Minimal recovery time: After the treatment, only mild redness or swelling usually occurs, which subsides after a few days. There is no long downtime, and most patients can quickly resume their normal activities.
  • Suitable for all skin types: Unlike some laser treatments, Morpheus8 can be safely used on all skin types, as radiofrequency energy works independently of skin pigmentation.
  • Long-lasting results: After the treatment, the skin improves over several months as collagen production continues to be stimulated. Results can last up to a year or longer.
  • Can be combined with other treatments: Morpheus8 can be easily combined with other cosmetic procedures such as Botox, fillers, or PRP to maximize results.
