What is eyelid surgery?

With age, as the brow descends onto the upper eyelid and the upper eyelid develops excess skin, an expression of fatigue or sadness can be perceived. Lower eyelid skin, muscle and fat changes often result to a tired appearance or bags under the eyes.

Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) is a cosmetic surgery procedure that can rejuvenate the eyes for a more youthful and refreshed appearance. It may be performed on the upper eyelid, lower eyelids, or both. The surgery helps tighten the eyelid skin, smooth the transition between the eyelid and cheek, and reframes the eye to yield a rejuvenated appearance.
