When considering eyelid surgery, it is often necessary to assess the structures around the eyes such as the position of the eyebrows as well as the texture of the surrounding skin. Many women requesting eyelid surgery say they they are told that they “look tired” or “sad” when they are neither. This surgery can help you to look more alert, youthful, and brighter by removing excess skin, muscle, and fat from the upper and lower eyelids in order to make the skin around the eyes smooth and firm and to diminish puffiness and bags. The incisions are either hidden or placed underneath the eyelid so that there are no visible incisions. Recovery time is relatively quick.
Most often performed on men and women 35 and over, this type of surgery is appropriate for correcting droopy upper eyelids and puffy bags below the eyes. It is sometimes combined with other facial rejuvenation procedures and non-surgical techniques.
