How many years can endoscopic blepharoplasty (transconjunctival approach) last?
Disease description:
I am a 35-year-old professional woman with noticeable under-eye bags caused by long-term late-night habits. I am considering undergoing transconjunctival blepharoplasty (internal suction for under-eye bags removal). I would like to know how long the results of this procedure can last.

In general, the duration of the effects of transconjunctival blepharoplasty (internal suction for under-eye bags) can last from 3 to 10 years.
Transconjunctival blepharoplasty, also known as lower eyelid bag removal surgery, is a common cosmetic procedure. It primarily involves making small incisions inside the eyelids to remove excess fat, thereby eliminating under-eye bags. The surgical outcome is influenced by individual lifestyle habits, skin elasticity, genetic factors, and the surgical technique used. Generally, if the surgery is properly performed and the patient maintains proper post-operative care, avoiding excessive fatigue and unhealthy lifestyle habits, the surgical results can last for a prolonged period.
If the patient has good physical condition and follows appropriate daily care routines, such as ensuring adequate sleep, avoiding staying up late, and maintaining proper eye hygiene, the results will tend to last longer. Conversely, if the patient has poor lifestyle habits, frequently stays up late, or spends long hours using electronic devices, the under-eye bags may reappear more quickly. To prolong the effects of transconjunctival blepharoplasty, it is recommended that patients maintain healthy lifestyle habits and proper eye hygiene after surgery.
