Eyelid Lift

Wrinkles and pouches beneath the eyes and sagging upper lids are two reasons to consider eyelid surgery often called an eyelid lift or blepharoplasty. Often patients complain of tired eyes. In this procedure excess skin and fat are removed, and stretched muscles are tightened. The results include smooth, sculpted creases on the upper lids, and elimination of most of the wrinkles and eyelid bags beneath the eyes. Not all patients require correction of both the upper and lower lids.

Patients who undergo eyelid surgery find that their eyes seem larger and more attractive, and their face immediately has a brighter, more alert, and more youthful appearance.

Are You a Good Candidate?

To be a good candidate for any plastic surgery, you must have realistic expectations about what the procedure can do for you. It's important to understand that plastic surgery can enhance your appearance and self confidence but, like all plastic surgery, it is not going to solve underlying emotional issues you may have. Always think carefully about your expectations and discuss any concerns you have with your surgeon.
