Quick Facts
What is Blepharoplasty?
This is accomplished by removing excess skin and pockets of fat from the upper and lower eyelids. Many patients combine blepharoplasty with alternative treatments such as a brow lift or cosmetic dermal fillers used to treat crow's feet. This relatively minor cosmetic surgery procedure can refresh the appearance of the face and leave it looking years younger.
The Procedure
Upper eyelid surgery can best benefit patients who have sagging skin reducing their field of vision. This procedure removes fatty deposits and excess skin from the upper eyelid, it can be performed either under local or general anesthetic. Incisions are made in the natural crease of the eye. A lower eyelid surgery removes fatty deposits and skin from the lower lid. A small incision is made on the inside of the eyelid to hide the scar. This creates a firmer more youthful look. Lower eyelid surgery allows the surgeon to transfer fat or dermal fillers to hollowed areas under the eye, creating a plump smoother appearance. Transconjunctival Blepharoplasty is for patients with less pronounced under eye bags. This procedure alleviates the appearance of bags and sagging by removing fatty deposits without removing any excess skin. Since this is performed through tiny incisions there is minimal to no scarring.
