Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure to correct issues with the eyelids, such as sagging skin, excess fat, and puffiness, typically in the upper or lower eyelids. It can improve both the appearance and function of the eyelids, making the eyes look more youthful and, in some cases, improving vision obstructed by drooping eyelids.

You are a good candidate if you have realistic expectations, are in good overall health, and experience issues like excess skin on the eyelids, bags under the eyes, or impaired vision due to sagging eyelids. Blepharoplasty is often recommended for those over 35 but can be performed on younger individuals with congenital eyelid issues.

Blepharoplasty can be performed on the:

• Upper eyelids: To remove excess skin and lift sagging eyelids that may impair vision.
• Lower eyelids: To remove or redistribute excess fat or skin and reduce under-eye bags or puffiness.

It can take several months for the full results of blepharoplasty to become visible, as swelling and bruising gradually subside.
