Blepharoplasty: What Can Eyelid Surgery Really Do for You?

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic procedure that targets the appearance of your upper and lower eyelids. Loss of skin elasticity from aging combined with gravity can cause excess skin to develop on the upper eyelids as well as the lower lids, making you appear older, angry, or tired. Blepharoplasty removes this excess skin and underlying fatty tissue to restore a more youthful appearance. In addition to eye rejuvenation, blepharoplasty offers additional benefits. 

Cosmetic Benefits 

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is considered a cosmetic procedure that targets eye rejuvenation. As we age, excess eyelid skin, eyelid puffiness, and bags under the eyes can cause a tired, old, and oftentimes angry appearance. Eyelid surgery, both upper and lower, can help restore a more youthful eye appearance. 

With the removal of excess skin and the elimination of droopiness in the eyes, you look more rested, alert, and ready to face the day. And if you have struggled with people thinking you are angry all the time thanks to an angry resting face, eyelid surgery may be just what you need to give yourself a friendlier appearance. 

In addition, by tightening up eyelid skin and revealing upper eyelids again, you have the option to try out those new makeup trends!

Medical Benefits 

But eyelid surgery isn’t just about your appearance and self-confidence. Oftentimes, eyelid surgery is necessary or recommended for medical benefits. If sagging upper eyelids are excessive, they can often cause severe drooping that physically blocks your field of vision. In this case, blepharoplasty is considered medically necessary. 

But it’s not just about improved vision. While studies have been small and limited, initial results show that upper blepharoplasty can help to reduce migraines and headaches

So, whether you are considering eyelid surgery for facial rejuvenation or to help headaches and improve your vision, our surgeons are here to answer your questions and help you find the right treatment for your goals.
