Upper Blepharoplasty At A Glance
Everything you need to know before your consultation
What Is Upper Eyelid Surgery?
An upper blepharoplasty is a gentle surgery used to make the eye area look more awake. As we get older, the skin above our eyes can become loose or heavy, creating a folded hood. This sagging often makes people look sleepy or sad, even if they feel full of energy.
During the treatment, the doctor carefully takes away the extra skin from the top lid. This makes a smooth, open space and a clearer line above the eye. It is a very neat way to bring back a young look to your face while keeping everything looking real and natural.
Why Choose Upper Blepharoplasty?
You might think about having this eyelid surgery if you experience any of the following
Skin Hanging Over Eyes
You have skin that hangs over your eyes, creating a heavy, hooded look that can make you appear older or tired.
Loose, Wrinkly Top Lids
You have loose, wrinkly skin on your top lids that creases easily and makes the eye area appear aged.
Worn-Out Appearance
You feel like you always look worn out, even when you feel rested and alert throughout your day.
Skin Sitting on Eyelashes
You notice skin sitting heavily on your eyelashes throughout the day, creating discomfort and a weighed-down feeling.
Trouble with Eye Makeup
You find it hard to put on eye makeup because loose skin creases and smudges the product throughout the day.
Bigger, Brighter Eyes
You have skin that gets in the way of side vision, or want your eyes to look bigger and brighter naturally.
