What Our Happy Patients Say About Us
What Is Upper Blepharoplasty?
An upper blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure to refresh the appearance of the eyes. Over time, the skin above the eyes may become heavy or loose, which may cause hooding. Sagging eyelid skin often creates a tired look, even when a person feels energetic.
The surgery involves removing excess skin from the upper eyelid area. This creates a clean, open look and a more defined eyelid crease. The result is an alert and rested appearance. It is a procedure to help restore a youthful look to the top half of the face while keeping the results natural.
Why Choose Upper Blepharoplasty?
You may choose upper eyelid surgery if you:
- Have hooded eyes.
- Have loose skin on the upper eyelids.
- Feel your eyes look tired.
- Notice heaviness over your lashes.
- Struggle with makeup creasing.
- Have skin blocking part of your vision.
- Want a brighter eye appearance.
How Does Upper Eyelid Surgery Work?
The upper eyelid surgery removes loose skin and fatty tissue from the top eyelid. A small, precise incision is placed inside the natural fold of the eye to keep it hidden. Sometimes the muscle is also adjusted to provide better support.
Dr Tanov uses a gentle local or twilight anaesthetic for your comfortable experience. His modern approach focuses on fast healing and very discreet scars. The final result creates an open, alert look and can even help people who bother of drooping skin was blocking their vision.
