WHAT IS BLEPHAROPLASTY?

Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate the upper eyelids and lower eyelids and produce a well-rested, friendly, and youthful appearance. Eyelid surgery can also help restore vision that has been obscured by droopy lids.

WHY CONSIDER EYELID SURGERY?

In the hands of a skilled and experienced board-certified plastic surgeon, eyelid surgery is safe and effective procedure that can enhance the way you look, boost self-esteem, and improve daily functioning and quality of life.

When performed on the upper eyelids, an upper blepharoplasty corrects cosmetic and functional issues by surgically removing excess skin, muscle, and fat.

In doing so, this eyelid rejuvenation technique instantly transforms the contours of the upper eyelids and helps patients look more alert, refreshed, and vivacious. It can also elevate the lids so that they no longer hang over the pupil and impact sight.

lower eyelid lift is designed to address pouches, bags, and loose skin under the eyes that can make women and men seem tired and older. By removing and repositioning the visible fat and any wrinkled skin, a lower blepharoplasty revitalizes eyes and can take years off of your appearance.
