Eyelid Surgery

The area around the eyes is often one of the first places you will notice signs of aging. Under-eye bags and sagging upper eyelids can be corrected through Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty). This relatively minor procedure can leave your face looking refreshed and years younger.

The best candidates have one or more of the following conditions:

• Excess skin obscuring the natural fold of the upper eyelids
• Loose skin hanging down from the upper eyelids, perhaps impairing vision
• Puffy upper eyelids, making the eyes look tired
• Excess skin and fine wrinkles on the lower eyelids
• Bags and dark circles under the eyes
• Droopy lower eyelids

The particular technique we will recommend depends on several factors, including the amount of excess fat and skin in your eyelid areas, the position of your eyebrows, and the condition of the muscles around your eyelids.

The healing process is gradual, so it will be a couple of weeks before full results can be seen. You may return to office-based work in one week.
