Why do I prefer a sub-palpebral lift and what are the advantages?
To treat lower eyelid wrinkles, I prefer laser resurfacing, which treats the quality rather than the quantity of the skin, thereby removing any risk of altering the look.
Conventional lower blepharoplasty means locating the fat pads through the muscle in a haphazard way, and carries post-operative risks (a hollow eye, for example), whereas the sub-muscular facelift makes it possible to identify the fat pads directly, to expose them better and to remove them with the utmost precision.
