Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty

As skin ages, it gradually loses its elasticity. A lack of elasticity plus the constant pull from gravity causes excess skin to collect on the upper and lower eyelids.
Excess skin on the lower eyelid causes wrinkles and bulges. On the upper eyelids, an extra fold of skin can hang over the eyelashes and get in the way of seeing.
Blepharoplasty is a cosmetic surgery performed on the eyelids. It’s done to remove excess skin from the upper eyelids and reduce bagginess from the lower eyelids. This surgery uses local anesthesia. After the procedure, your appearance will improve clearly.
This surgery takes about 2 hours if both upper and lower eyelids are done together, and will improve clearly your appearance.
After surgery you should stay home from work and limit your activities for several days while your eyelids heal.
