As our bodies mature, the skin around the eyes can appear saggy, puffy, or droopy. The skin stetches, the muscles weaken, and the normal fat deposites that are around the eye settle and become more prominent. Blepharoplasty is a procedure that removes the excess eyelid tissues.
The surgery itself can be performed on either the upper or lower eyelid, or even on both. The surgery will make the skin around the eyes firmer and healthier.
Whether you want to improve your appearance or are experiencing functional problems with your eyelids, eyelid surgery can rejuvenate the area surrounding your eyes.
