Eye Lid Surgery

Eyelid surgery is also known as blepharoplasty, eyelid surgery improves the appearance of the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. With age the eyelids become puffy and wrinkled which takes away the youthful looks.

Upper eyelid surgery can remove excess fatty deposits that appear as puffiness in the upper eyelids.

Loose or sagging skin that creates folds or disturbs the natural contour of the upper eyelid, sometimes impairing vision, can be treated by eyelid lift surgery.

Lower eyelid blepharoplasty can remove excess skin and fine wrinkles of the lower eyelid. Bags under the eyes can be corrected by blepharoplasty.

Lower eyelid surgery can correct droopiness of the lower eyelids, showing white below the iris (colored portion of the eye).

The Procedure

A blepharoplasty procedure usually is performed through external surgical incisions made along the natural skin lines of the upper and the lower eyelids. According to the technique applied by the plastic surgeon, the incisions can be made from the conjunctiva, the interior surface of the lower eyelid, as in the case of a transconjunctival blepharoplasty.

A blepharoplasty operation usually requires 1–3 hours to complete. Post-operatively, the initial swelling and bruising consequent to the surgery will subside and resolve with 1–2 weeks. Most of the people express satisfaction with the results of blepharoplasty, such as a more rested and youthful appearance and more self-confidence. For many people, results of surgery may last a lifetime.
