Correction of Dark Circles Under the Eyes and the “Tired Look” with No Visible Scar
Millions of people worldwide are concerned about Dark Circles Under the Eyes. Dark Circles Under The Eyes give the face a Tired Look and often make the eyes look hollow”
As we age the dark circle which starts underneath the eyelid near the nose begins to move down into the cheek creating a depression called the Tear Trough Deformity which gives the face a tired, aged, haggard appearance. The dark circle is called the Naso-jugal Fold.
Many plastic surgeons perform an eyelid operation called blepharoplasty to correct this problem, but when fat is removed during the Blepharoplasty, the dark circle or Naso-jugal Fold and hollow appearance can be made worse.
One procedure which can produce dramatic improvement in this condition is an Arcus Marginalis Release with Fat Grafting during which the Arcus Marginalis, the structure causing the dark circle is released and fat is grafted beneath the dark circle to plump the skin and decrease the shadow of the dark circle.
One problem in the past is that attempts to correct dark circles under the eyes have been done through an eyelid incision and after the operation, the eyelid turns down creating a sad eyed look called an ectropion.
Over the past 12 years I have developed a laser blepharoplasty surgery technique that avoids the visible eyelid incision by using a revolutionary new technique through a small incision on the inside of the eyelid during a procedure called the transconjunctival laser blepharoplasty. The transconjunctival blepharoplasty avoids the outer eyelid incision and prevents ectropion and the sad eyed look. My procedure is published in the Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery.
The result of this new laser blepharoplasty surgery technique is that patients heal faster, have less bruising, have no visible scar or incision, and most importantly the eyelid shape is not changed, there is no downturn of the eyelid and no sad eyed look.
After 2300 laser blepharoplasty surgery procedures during the past 12 years, the correction of dark circles is now a reliable procedure which can produce dramatic and safe results.
