Eyes

(Blepharoplasty)

Blepharoplasty removes excessive upper and or lower eyelid skin, through small concealed incisions in the eyelid creases. Excessive fat can also be removed from the eyelids in order to give a more refreshed, youthful appearance.

A Blepharoplasty does not elevate the lower face. This is a separate surgical procedure called Facelift, nor does Blepharoplasty elevate the forehead. This procedure is known as an Endoscopic Forehead Lift.

Most Blepharoplasty candidates are in their mid – 30’s to late 60’s. However, we evaluate patients based on physiologic and not chronologic age. Most healthy individuals that have aging changes that require Blepharoplasty are good candidates.
