WHAT IS BLEPHAROPLASTY?
Blepharoplasty is a facial plastic surgery procedure designed to rejuvenate the appearance of the eyelids. Fat deposits that cause bags and puffiness are eliminated or repositioned and excess skin that causes sagging, wrinkles and fine lines is removed. By tightening underlying muscles and other tissues, our skilled surgeons can help restore a refreshed and invigorated appearance.
How can eyelid lift surgery help you?
- Look younger: Wrinkles, fine lines and sagging skin around your eyes can make you look older than you feel. An eyelid lift produces a smooth, vibrant, youthful-looking appearance by removing excess skin and tightening the tissue around your eyes.
- Brighten tired eyes: When loose skin and deposits of fat weigh down your eyelids, you may look fatigued even when you are well rested. Unwanted fat deposits can also create bags and puffiness around your eyes, making you look tired. Blepharoplasty removes excess fat and skin around your eyes, providing you with a more alert and rested appearance.
- Restore impaired vision: If your upper eyelids suffer from sagging skin and excessive fatty deposits, they will likely hang and impair your full range of vision. With upper eyelid surgery, our skilled plastic surgeons can remove this excess fat and skin so you can see clearly without drooping eyelids blocking your vision.
AM I A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR EYELID SURGERY?
Eyelid surgery can be performed on men and women of any age who want to rejuvenate their appearance. Generally speaking, if you are in good overall health and want to improve the appearance of drooping, tired-looking eyes, blepharoplasty may be your ideal solution. Certain medical conditions such as glaucoma, detached retina, thyroid problems or abnormally dry eyes can affect your eyelids and will need to be taken into consideration if you are planning on undergoing eyelid surgery.
EYELID SURGERY RECOVERY
