Blepharoplasty Complications & Why Transconjunctival Approach Is Safer – Dr. Bashar Bizrah’s Expertise Since 1995

.

What Is Blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic procedure designed to correct drooping eyelids, under-eye bags, and puffiness. It is one of the most popular facial plastic surgeries worldwide, performed for both aesthetic enhancement and vision improvement.

However, blepharoplasty particularly lower eyelid surgery can be associated with complications when not performed using advanced, minimally invasive techniques.

Common Complications After Blepharoplasty

While blepharoplasty is generally safe in expert hands, traditional (transcutaneous) lower eyelid surgery may lead to several issues:

1. Visible Scarring

External incisions below the lash line can sometimes leave permanent scars, especially in patients with darker or sensitive skin types.

2. Eyelid Retraction or Ectropion

One of the most serious complications, where the lower eyelid pulls downwards, exposing the white of the eye and causing discomfort.

3. Hollow or Over-Corrected Eyes

Removing too much fat from under the eyes can result in a sunken appearance and prematurely aged look.

4. Prolonged Swelling and Asymmetry

Healing from traditional techniques may take longer, with bruising and uneven results persisting for weeks.

5. Dry Eye or Ocular Irritation

Interference with the natural blink mechanism may lead to chronic dryness or tearing.

Transconjunctival Blepharoplasty: A Safer, Scarless Technique

The transconjunctival approach is a modern, internal method of lower eyelid surgery that avoids external incisions entirely. Instead, the surgeon accesses fat pads through the inside of the eyelid, preserving the natural eyelid contour and function.

Key Benefits of Transconjunctival Eyelid Surgery:

  1. No visible scar – perfect for patients who don’t require skin removal
  2. Preserves eyelid shape – reduces the risk of lower eyelid retraction
  3. More natural results – fat can be repositioned, not just removed
  4. Faster recovery – less bruising, quicker healing
  5. Ideal for younger patients or revision cases
