Eyelid Surgery

Aging and genetics can leave loose skin, wrinkles, and fat deposits around the eyes, making them look puffy or tired. Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) is a surgical procedure that rejuvenates the eyes by adjusting the eyelids and surrounding tissues. By removing excess skin and fat and tightening the remaining tissues around the eyes, eyelid surgery helps individuals regain a refreshed appearance.

Candidates for

Eyelid Surgery

Excess Skin

Laxity of the skin can cause excess tissue to accumulate just over the eyes. This can obscure your vision and create a chronically fatigued appearance. Excess skin accumulation over the eyes can limit the eyelid surface, which may be problematic for women who wear makeup. Eyelid surgery gently removes this excess skin for a more rested look.

Drooping Muscles

Drooping facial muscles are common with age, which can become particularly bothersome when it occurs around the eyes. By lifting and repositioning the muscles around the eyes, we can achieve a brighter eye appearance while maintaining the natural look and shape of the eyes.

Under-Eye Bags

Uneven fat distribution under the eyes can cause bags and puffiness. The lower eyelid technique specifically targets these areas. Repositioning fat below the eyes can reduce this puffy appearance and restore a more youthful look.

Upper Eyelid Lift

An inconspicuous incision is made along the natural crease of the upper eyelid. Muscles are tightened, fat is redistributed, and excess skin is carefully trimmed away.

Lower Eyelid Lift

A small incision is created just below the lower lashes through which we excise excess skin. Fat and skin can be removed to eliminate lower eyelid “bags.” A transconjunctival incision, placed inside the lower eyelid, may be used to avoid visible scarring. Fat may also be redistributed below the eye to reduce puffiness.
