Excess eyelid skin is an issue that many of us have to deal with as we age. A blepharoplasty is a standard cosmetic procedure that can improve excess eyelid skin and help you rejuvenate your appearance. This procedure can also improve peripheral vision that might be obstructed due to drooping upper eyelids.
Ultimately, blepharoplasty offers individuals the opportunity to achieve a more youthful and refreshed look, while also potentially addressing functional issues that can impact their quality of life.
What Is Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty, commonly referred to as eyelid surgery, is a surgical procedure designed to address various cosmetic and functional concerns related to the eyelids. It involves the removal of excess skin, fat, and sometimes muscle from the upper and/or lower eyelids. By doing so, this procedure can help rejuvenate the appearance of the eyes by reducing puffiness, sagging skin, and under-eye bags.

How Does Blepharoplasty Work?
A blepharoplasty procedure begins with a local anesthetic to numb the incision area. Then, incision lines are carefully drawn in specific locations so the scar is hidden in the natural eyelid crease. Once the incisions are made, fat deposits are removed, muscles are tightened, and excess skin is excised. At the end of the procedure, the incisions are closed using either removable sutures or sometimes skin adhesive.
What Can I Expect After the Procedure?
The results of your blepharoplasty will appear gradually as the swelling and bruising subside. Once fully healed, the results will reveal a smooth, better-defined eyelid and an alert, rejuvenated appearance. Eyelid surgery usually takes 1-2 hours. Moistened iced gauzes =are recommended for the first two days after the surgery to decrease swelling.
