What is Blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic procedure designed to improve the appearance of the eyelids. The surgery can be performed on both upper and lower eyelids to correct drooping skin, remove excess fat deposits, and address wrinkles or fine lines.

Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty

Upper eyelid rejuvenation involves removing excess skin that obscures the natural eyelid crease. Carefully measured incisions are made to remove skin, and occasionally underlying muscle and fat, creating a more youthful appearance.

Lower Eyelid Blepharoplasty

Lower eyelid surgery is more intricate, focusing on preserving critical eye function while addressing age-related changes. Dr. Lozada uses specialized techniques like transconjunctival incisions to remove excess skin and fat, ensuring a natural-looking result.

Addressing Tear Trough Concerns

Volume loss in the tear trough area can be addressed through techniques like fat transfer or fat transposition. These methods effectively restore volume and provide a refreshed, natural appearance.

Candidate Considerations

Ideal candidates for blepharoplasty typically experience tired-looking eyes, excess skin around the eyelids, or vision obstruction due to drooping skin. During consultation, Dr. Lozada develops a personalized surgical plan tailored to individual anatomy and aesthetic goals.

Recovery and Expectations

Blepharoplasty recovery involves minimal discomfort, with most swelling and bruising resolving within one to two weeks. Patients receive comprehensive aftercare instructions to ensure optimal healing and results.
