Lower blepharoplasty is performed by surgeons from multiple specialties, with no central agreement in terms of sufficient patient follow-up. The purpose of this study is to review the literature, paying special attention to published postoperative photographs in order to gain a better understanding of the longevity of this commonly performed procedure in the hope that we will be better able to educate our patients preoperatively. &#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to know more about blepharoplasty, please read the <a
