Festoons are unattractive mounds situated at the lower eyelid/cheek junction and create a fatigued look to the face.  They are impossible to conceal with makeup and there is no home remedy for them. Most festoon sufferers go from doctor to doctor with very little hope of a cure and are advised that this is a non-treatable condition that they must learn to live with. In some instances, festoons are misdiagnosed as eyelid bags. Traditional eyelid or facial surgery or treatments such as microneedling, Thermage, or Ultherapy simply do not help. Aggressive laser resurfacing and large, direct festoon excisions are fraught with prolonged healing times, pigmentary changes, or large, unsightly scars. Thus, festoons are an increasing cause of depression, anxiety, loss of self-esteem, loss of productivity, and overall decreased quality of life.

Dr. Lopa Gupta has amassed a national and international clientele as a highly esteemed and sought after festoon repair surgeon.   Over the past 2 decades, the increased variety and use of fillers around the eyes and cheeks has led to an explosion in the number of filler-induced festoons. Patients and doctors alike are unaware that filler injections performed years prior can lead to unsightly festoons.  In some instances where a hyaluronic acid filler was used, a simple injection of a reversing enzyme may restore an acceptable appearance and surgery can be avoided.  Dr. Gupta is one of few people in the country with extensive experience in reversing filler-induced festoons non-surgically with advanced cannula techniques. Out of necessity for those who have non-reversible festoons, Dr. Gupta was inspired and compelled to create her own direct festoon surgery, culling from her extensive knowledge of lasers, artistic eyelid surgery, facial injectables, and oculofacial anatomy.  Dr. Gupta successfully attains a natural, artistic result with minimal to no visible scarring in the vast majority of her patients. Results can be sustained for up to 12 years especially when triggers such as smoking, sun, alcohol, salt, and allergies are controlled. Procedures are performed in the office under local anesthesia. Out-of-town patients should expect to stay in New York for 2 to 3 days.

“I was suffering from an under eye condition known as ‘festoons’…I came across Dr Lopa Gupta and was so impressed by her experience and knowledge of my condition.

“Over the last several years, I developed large dark bags under my eyes…Many of my clients remarked that I looked very exhausted…I consulted with Dr. Lopa Gupta, and she recommended two procedures that would address my problem – a lower lid blephoplasty and direct festoon repair…Just 2 weeks after the surgery, I already look so much better. The surgery was a success…I highly recommend Dr. Gupta. She is an expert’s expert in her field.” -read more
