Why Eyelid Surgery is Perfect for Both Men and Women

When contemplating cosmetic surgery, privacy and discretion are among the top priorities of many of the patients that I work with. I have spoken to many patients over the years who want to rejuvenate some aspect of their appearance, without making it obvious that they have opted for surgery. People who are interested in eyelid surgery, or other cosmetic procedures for the face, are especially concerned about this. This makes sense, as our face is often the first thing other people notice about our appearance.

Eyelid surgery (also known as blepharoplasty) can help male and female patients who wish to rejuvenate the appearance of their face and treat visible signs of aging like “tired eyes”. As we age, the development of sagging skin above the eyes or “bags” that appear under the eyes can prematurely age us. Eyelid surgery can safely address these concerns and help patients achieve a refreshed, younger-looking appearance. In my experience, eyelid surgery patients are typically very impressed and happy with how subtle and natural-looking their final results are.

Although some male patients are initially concerned that eyelid surgery might look them look effeminate, this simply is not the case. When performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon with experience working with male patients, eyelid surgery can provide excellent aesthetic results without sacrificing any of your faces more masculine features. For more details on how eyelid surgery can help male and female patients look their very best, check out the video below where I discuss the procedure in detail:

Regardless of your gender or age, if you feel that your eyes have made you look old before your time, eyelid surgery can be a great option to help you achieve the natural-looking aesthetic improvement you desire. However, before making any decisions about your procedure, it’s essential that you consult with an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon.
