BLEPHAROPLASTY
Rejuvenate Your Eyes for a Brighter, More Youthful Look
What is a Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a procedure that removes excess skin, fat, and muscle from your upper and/or lower eyelids. It addresses aging signs, corrects vision obstruction from drooping eyelids, and rejuvenates the entire eye area. This surgery enhances your natural eye contours, creating a more open, alert, and youthful appearance.
How Blepharoplasty
Works
Blepharoplasty is a highly customizable procedure and may involve the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. The steps include:
- Consultation: A detailed assessment of your eyelid concerns and goals to develop a personalized treatment plan.
- Anesthesia: The procedure is performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia for your comfort.
- Upper Eyelid Surgery:
- Incisions are made along the natural eyelid crease to minimize visible scarring.
- Excess skin, fat, and muscle are removed or repositioned to create a smoother and lifted appearance.
- Lower Eyelid Surgery:
- Incisions are made just below the lower lash line or inside the eyelid (transconjunctival approach).
- Fat is removed or redistributed to reduce puffiness and smooth out under-eye hollows.
- Closure: Incisions are closed with fine sutures, and the area is carefully bandaged to support healing.
The surgery typically takes 1–2 hours, depending on the complexity, and patients can return home the same day.
