Do you feel like your eyes are betraying you, making you look older and more worn out and tired than you actually feel? It’s no secret that as we get older the effects of life, gravity, and time start to show up on our face. This age progression is perhaps no wear as prevalent as in the sensitive and delicate area around the eyes. This skin is particularly prone to wrinkles, lines, creases, sagging, and puffiness. In some extreme cases, the sagging of excess skin may be enough to obstruct vision. Whether you are simply uncomfortable with the aesthetic of your aging eye area or looking to improve the area’s functionality, an eyelid lift, also called a blepharoplasty, may be right for you.
Eyelid Lift surgery is a procedure to remove the excess of the area and tighten the skin of the eyelids to reduce wrinkles, sagging, and lower-lid bags. Scars are minimal to completely hidden in the natural creases of the eye so that there are no tell-tale signs of the procedure. Often blepharoplasty is done in conjunction with other facial rejuvenation procedures such as brow lift, face lift, and dermal fillers.
