✔ Droopy eyelids can make you look tired or older than you feel. Blepharoplasty can correct droopiness and remove puffiness and bags under the eyes. Since the eyes are the focus of the face, this procedure can dramatically restore a youthful, bright-eyed appearance.

 

Upper eyelid surgery aims to remove excess skin and fat. The resulting incision is hidden in the upper eyelid crease and becomes nearly invisible within a few days.

 

Lower eyelid surgery can be performed from inside the lower eyelid if heaviness is mainly due to excess fat. Alternatively, an incision hidden just under the lower lashes can be used if excess skin and fat need to be addressed. If only excess skin is the problem, a “skin pinch” can remove the excess, or a “skin tightening” procedure can be done using a laser or chemical peel.

 

✔ Recovery from eyelid surgery generally takes 5-10 days. Sutures are removed in 3-5 days, and incisions begin to fade rapidly after that.

 

✔ As with any facial plastic surgery procedure, the process starts with a careful analysis of the eyes, brow, and cheek position to understand the causes of aging changes. Only then can recommendations be made for procedures that will yield the best results.

Transformations

FaceTite

FaceTite is a scar-free alternative to a facelift, offering dramatic skin tightening for the face and neck.

Skin Rejuvenation

Glycolic acid is a non-toxic alpha hydroxy acid from sugar cane that removes aging skin cells, revealing fresher, younger skin beneath.
