About

Bonita lower blepharoplasty

Bonita's lower blepharoplasty tidies loose skin and excess fat while addressing hollows too, aiming for a natural, bright impression.

dark circles may not be the case

Many people blame dark circles, but it is often under-eye fat and loose skin that weigh down the face.

As under-eye fat pushes forward or the skin droops, shadows form and the face looks tired and older.

If you notice these changes now, you are at the stage where structure needs improving, not simple upkeep.

What lower blepharoplasty is

Lower blepharoplasty removes or repositions unnecessary under-eye fat and tidies loose skin.

It leaves the under-eye area flat and natural, for a brighter, livelier look.

The point is less about removing lines than about correcting the under-eye structure to improve the impression.

The principles of Bonita lower blepharoplasty

01

Results begin with analysis

The method depends on whether the cause is excess fat, loose skin or dark circles.

02

The structure you can't see decides the result

Simply removing under-eye fat leaves a hollow. We plan repositioning and skin tightening together.

03

The under-eye result is completed during recovery

The line settles as the swelling goes down, and follow-up visits are scheduled around that progress.

How Bonita thinks

Setting the direction that fits your current condition comes before choosing which operation.

Under-eye changes differ from person to person with structure and condition, so we recommend proceeding after a full consultation.

Recovery

  1. Right after treatment

    There is swelling and bruising, so we explain how to use cold compresses.

  2. During recovery

    The stitches are removed, and as swelling goes down the line becomes natural.

  3. As it settles

    The final line is confirmed.

Recovery time and follow-up visits vary with the extent of treatment and your individual condition.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

I thought it was dark circles. Is Lower Blepharoplasty right for me?
What looks like dark circles is often actually a shadow cast by protruding fat and sagging skin. We first check whether it is due to colour or to structure.
Isn't it better to just remove under-eye fat?
Removing fat can make the area look hollow with age. Repositioning is the default, with partial removal added depending on your condition.
How long is recovery?
When stitches come out and how long swelling lasts depend on the surgical method. If you have important plans, tell us during consultation and we will plan around them.

※ Bleeding, infection, inflammation and other side effects may occur after surgery or treatment. Please decide after a full consultation with your doctor.
