Understanding Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty, commonly known as an eyelid lift, is a precision surgical procedure designed to address sagging and puffy skin around the eyes. This transformative treatment can dramatically rejuvenate one's facial appearance by removing excess skin and repositioning underlying tissues.

Types of Blepharoplasty

Upper Eyelid Lift: Removes excess skin obscuring the natural eye contour
Lower Eyelid Lift: Reduces under-eye bags and wrinkles
Asian Blepharoplasty: Specialized technique creating a subtle upper eyelid fold

Procedure Benefits

Blepharoplasty offers multiple aesthetic and functional advantages:

Restores a more youthful, refreshed appearance
Reduces puffiness and under-eye bags
Can improve peripheral vision obstructed by drooping skin
Provides long-lasting results

Ideal Candidates

Suitable candidates for blepharoplasty typically have:

Healthy overall medical condition
Realistic aesthetic expectations
Noticeable skin laxity around the eyes
Non-smokers or willing to quit before and after surgery

Procedure Details

The surgical approach varies based on individual needs. Incisions are strategically placed within natural eye creases to minimize visible scarring. Depending on the patient's requirements, surgeons can address upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both.

Recovery and Results

Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can return to normal activities within one week. Final results gradually emerge as swelling subsides, revealing a more youthful and rejuvenated eye area.
