Achieve Natural-Looking Results with Eyelid Surgery

Privacy and discretion are very common priorities for cosmetic surgery patients. In my experience, people want to receive subtle, natural-looking results without it seeming obvious that they “had work done.” This is especially true for patients who undergo facial surgery procedures, as the face is the most noticeable feature of all. As we age, changes like the development of sagging skin above the eyes or fat build-up can give some of us “bags” or puffiness under the eyes that may prematurely age us by making the eyes look tired even when they are not.

Eyelid surgery (also known as blepharoplasty) can help address these concerns and provide a refreshed, natural-looking appearance for the eyes. Eyelid surgery can be performed on the upper or lower eyelids (or both) depending on the patient’s specific needs. Upper eyelid blepharoplasty works by removing excess skin from the eyelid area, providing a youthful lifting effect. During lower eyelid blepharoplasty, fat deposits under the eyes are removed in addition to excess skin (if needed) to help restore firmness to the eyelid area.

When performed by an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon, eyelid surgery is a safe, effective, and relatively simple cosmetic surgery procedure.

For many patients, undergoing eyelid surgery can be a great way to help turn back the clock. However, eyelid surgery is not right for everyone. Before making any decisions, you must consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss your goals and determine whether eyelid surgery is the best choice to help you rejuvenate your appearance.
