Overview

What Is Under-Eye Surgery?

Under-eye surgery is a cosmetic procedure designed to improve the appearance of the lower eyelid area by addressing puffiness, dark circles, under-eye bags, and sagging skin. Depending on the patient’s needs, the procedure may involve removing or repositioning fat, tightening skin, or enhancing volume for a smoother, more youthful look.
