Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Lift) in Corona, CA | The Plastics Doc

What is an Eyelid Lift?

Eyes are often one of the first features noticed on a person. Plastic surgeon Dr. Samuel Salcedo uses eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) to remove excess skin and lift the upper or lower eyelid, creating a more alert and youthful appearance. Men and women undergo this procedure to eliminate saggy eyelids and reduce puffy bags under the eyes.

Benefits of an Eyelid Lift

An eyelid lift performed by Dr. Salcedo offers multiple aesthetic and functional advantages:

Achieve a rejuvenated, more youthful look
Expand vision by increasing line of sight
Open the eyes for a more alert appearance
Eliminate bags under the eyes
Remove and tighten loose, drooping skin on upper and lower eyelids
Reduce dark circles
Enhance eye contour
Reduce skin irritation from folded skin
Improve hollowing below lower eyelids

Ideal Candidates for Eyelid Surgery

Both men and women seek eyelid lifts when experiencing excess, drooping skin on upper eyelids or bulging skin below bottom eyelids. These irregularities can cause functional and vision difficulties that impact daily activities.

The Eyelid Lift Procedure

Eyelid surgery can target upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both using local anesthesia. The procedure typically lasts up to two hours.

Upper Eyelid Procedure

Upper blepharoplasty reduces loose skin drooping over the eye. The incision is strategically placed along the lash line or crease to remove excess skin and tissue.

Lower Eyelid Procedure

Lower blepharoplasty removes bulging skin under the lower lid. The incision is placed below the lash line to remove fatty tissue and gently lift the skin for a smoother appearance.

Recovery and Results

After outpatient surgery, patients need a few days of rest. Ice packs help reduce discomfort and swelling. Results can last a decade or longer, though the natural aging process continues.
