The difference between internal and external blepharoplasty for under-eye bags
Disease description:
I'm planning to have eye bag removal recently. After consulting with a doctor, I was told there are two methods: internal (transconjunctival) and external incision. Could you please explain the differences between the internal and external approaches for eye bag removal?

Dr. Li Fengyong
The difference between internal suction and external excision for under-eye bags lies in the following: Internal suction is more suitable for individuals with tight skin. It typically involves making a concealed incision inside the eyelid to remove localized fat, thereby achieving the effect of eliminating under-eye bags. External excision is better suited for those with loose or sagging skin around the eyes. This method usually involves making an incision on the outer eyelid skin, which is then sutured to restore smoothness to the skin under the eyes, effectively removing the bags.
