What Is a Blepharoplasty?

A Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic procedure that targets excess skin and fatty deposits on the upper and lower eyelids to reveal fresh, rejuvenated eyes. Depending on the patient's eyelids, your plastic surgeon may target the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. Your plastic surgeon will place the incisions in the eyelid crease which will allow for virtually unnoticeable scars after surgery. Aging can lead to excess, loose skin on the eyelids which can give off a tired look. Patients that feel unsatisfied with bags under their eyes, loose hanging skin, etc., can find dramatic improvements with this surgery.
