Eyelid Lift (Blepharoplasty) in Phoenix, AZ | Ali M. Mosharrafa, M.D.

Understanding Blepharoplasty in Phoenix

For most people, the eyes begin to show signs of aging before other facial areas. This occurs due to gravity and volume loss, leading to sagging upper and lower eyelids that diminish natural facial contours. Eyelid surgery can effectively restore a youthful appearance and rejuvenate the upper face.

Benefits of Eyelid Surgery

• Reducing dark circles under the eyes
• Eliminating eye hollows and puffiness
• Removing deep eyelid folds
• Opening up the eye region
• Eliminating under-eye bags
• Removing excess skin causing wrinkles and droopy eyelids

Candidate Criteria for Blepharoplasty

Ideal candidates are men and women in good overall health experiencing one or more of the following:

• Sagging or wrinkling in upper/lower eyelid skin
• Drooping upper eyelids
• Hollows creating dark under-eye bags
• Lost upper eyelid crease
• Excess upper eyelid skin impacting visual field

Procedure Details

Upper Eyelid Surgery

Upper lid blepharoplasty involves removing excess skin to create a youthful eyelid crease. The procedure leaves a nearly invisible scar concealed by the natural lid crease.

Lower Eyelid Surgery

Lower lid surgery is often performed through an internal incision, elevating and softening the junction between the lower eyelid and cheek. Fat is carefully removed and repositioned to eliminate dark circles and under-eye bags.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect some initial swelling and bruising, manageable with prescribed medications. Most individuals feel comfortable returning to work and social activities within one week, with full results visible after several weeks.
