NON-SURGICAL BLEPHAROPLASTY EYELIFT: WHAT IS IT?
Non-surgical Blepharoplasty is a groundbreaking cosmetic procedure designed to eliminate dark circles and rejuvenate the eye area. Small amounts of filer are injected into the tear trough hollows to eliminate the undereye shadows that give the impression of dark circles. This treatment offers a quick and effective solution with no downtime, allowing patients to return to their daily activities immediately. Unlike traditional surgical methods, non-surgical blepharoplasty carries no surgical risks, making it a safer and more convenient option for those looking to enhance their appearance and achieve a refreshed, youthful look without the need for invasive surgery.
For patients with fine lines in the undereye area in addition to the hollowing of the tear troughs, Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) can be used to smooth the skin. PRP is derived from the patient’s own blood and is rich in growth factors that promote healing and tissue regeneration. By injecting PRP into the under-eye area, the skin’s natural repair process is stimulated, leading to improved skin texture, reduced dark circles, and a more youthful appearance. This approach uses the body’s natural healing abilities, offering a natural and effective way to rejuvenate the delicate skin around the eyes.

WHAT CAUSES DARK CIRCLES
AND EYE BAGS UNDER THE EYES?
The eyes are often one of the first areas where aging becomes noticeable. The skin around the eyes is delicate and becomes progressively thinner with age. Additionally, this skin has fewer oil and sweat glands, making it more vulnerable to the effects of aging.
Common age-related changes in this area include dark circles and under-eye bags or swelling. Dark circles result from the loss of fat beneath the lower eyelid over time. The hollow that forms creates a shadow, giving the appearance of dark circles.
Eye bags are caused by the weakening of the eyelid structure over time, allowing the fat pad around the eye to protrude and create a small bulge. This occurs as the supporting tissues weaken with age, causing the fat pad to move forward.
Although dark circles and eye bags don’t necessarily indicate extreme exhaustion or serious illness, they can make you look more tired and older than you are. Addressing these issues can help restore a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
WHO WOULD BE A GOOD CANDIDATE
FOR NON-SURGICAL BLEPHAROPLASTY EYELIFT?
In the past, surgery was the only effective solution for dark circles. Over the past 15 years, however, hyaluronic acid filler injection to correct tear trough hollows has become a more effective alternative. Certainly, surgery remains the gold standard for reduction of severe fat bulging under the eyes. We refer patients who are not candidates for filler injection for surgical fat repositioning or removal regularly.
By repositioning this fat, the under-eye area is smoothed, eliminating the bulge. Additionally, undereye hollowness can be addressed with fat transfer, filling in the depressed areas for a more youthful look.
The problem is that these surgical procedures carry risks, can be costly and usually require significant downtime.
For patients with hollowing under the eyes seeking aesthetic improvements without major surgery and associated downtime, non-surgical blepharoplasty is an excellent alternative. This procedure can be conveniently performed in our office, offering a quick and effective solution with minimal recovery time.

HOW LONG DO RESULTS OF NON-SURGICAL BLEPHAROPLASTY LAST?
The results of non-surgical blepharoplasty typically last 3 to 5 years, but we have seen duration of effect for more than 7 years! Hyaluronic acid filler lasts for a particularly long time in the undereye area. We typically use Restylane and even though it lasts for a very long time, it is fully dissolvable with enzyme injection at any time.
Treatments involving Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) can vary based on the body’s natural healing response. Regular touch-up treatments can help maintain the results, ensuring a continuously youthful and refreshed appearance.
It’s important to follow post-treatment care instructions and maintain a healthy lifestyle to maximize the longevity of the results.

When people talk about ""under eye bags"", they usually mean two things: either deep tear troughs due to volume loss or bulging caused by fat pad herniation. Both of these issues can be addressed through fillers or surgery, and they typically don't see significant improvement with resurfacing lasers. Fillers are injected to restore lost volume or conceal the uneven appearance caused by the fat pad, creating a smoother transition from the under-eye area to the cheek. These filler results are temporary, lasting anywhere from 8 months to over 2 years.
For a more permanent solution, surgery can be a viable option. To ensure the best outcome, it's essential to consult with an experienced facial aesthetics injector or facial plastic surgeon.
