Your eyes are the most intriguing and revealing facial feature. They are also one of the most visible parts of your body to show signs of aging. Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure to improve the appearance of the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. The result is a more alert and rested appearance; and confidence in both personal relationships as well as in the work place.
Many of our female eyelid surgery patients state that their primary reason for wanting surgery is to give them a more youthful, natural, rested appearance to compete in today's job market. Another popular reason women desire eyelid surgery is to address frown lines that cause them to appear angry or worried. These frown lines can be addressed at the same time as an upper eyelid blepharoplasty.
You may be a candidate for eyelid surgery if you have some of the following conditions:
- Eyelid puffiness and dark circles under the eyes
- Bags under the eyes
- Drooping upper lids
- A tired or sad appearance
- Impairment in your vision due to excess upper eyelid skin
- An angry or worried appearance
