Blepharoplasty

Patients with excess eyelid skin and/or lower lower eyelid bags can benefit from an upper and/or lower eyelid blepharoplasty.

Upper eyelid surgery is done for excess skin of the eyelid and results in a scar hidden in the eyelid crease.

Lower eyelid surgery, often done for excessive, bulging fat is usually done from inside the eyelid, resulting in no visible scar.

When the eyebrow (especially the lateral part) appears lower than the orbital rim (bone), a brow lift can be combined with eyelid surgery to enhance the youthful periorbital appearance. Sutures are removed one week from surgery; recovery is about one week.

Due to patient privacy, pre and post-operative blepharoplasty and facelift photos are available for review in the office.
