Eyelid Lift/Blepharoplasty Gallery Patient 318221

Surgery to improve the appearance of the eyelids is called blepharoplasty. The goal of blepharoplasty is to give the eyes a more youthful look by removing excess skin, bulging fat, and lax muscles from the upper and lower eyelids. If the sagging skin obstructs peripheral vision, blepharoplasty can eliminate the obstruction and expand the visual field. Excess skin and fat are remved from the upper lid through an incision hidden in the natural eyelid crease. The incision is then closed with fine sutures.
