Your eyes are the window to your soul. Growing old is never easy, and for those adjusting to physical changes, it’s even more difficult. Some individuals may experience excess, loose, puffy, and paper-thin skin around the eyes that can cause negative physical and emotional problems. In these instances, eyelid surgery may be a viable option for those with upper or lower eyelid droopiness.

In severe cases, blepharoplasty may become medically necessary, if the skin blocks the patient’s vision. Fat in the upper eyelid may also push forward giving the upper eyelid a full, bulging appearance. Correcting these features can give the upper eyelid a more youthful, fresh, and energetic appearance.*

What are the different options?

During a consultation with one of our Board Certified Plastic Surgeons, you will discuss the procedure that is best for you. Surgery of the upper eyelid requires removal of three things: extra skin, extra muscle, and extra fat.

The following are conditions that may indicate the need for eyelid surgery:

  • Excess skin obscuring the natural fold of the upper eyelids
  • Loose skin hanging down from the upper eyelids, making the eyes look tired
  • A puffy appearance to the upper eyelids, making the eyes look tired
  • Bags and dark circles under the eyes
  • Lower eyelid droopiness

The procedure will take from one to two and half hours* depending on the complexity of the procedure performed. Recovery time is minimal and patients can expect to return to normal activities within a week to ten days.*

All surgical procedures require an initial consultation. For more information or to schedule your appointment please call Core Dermatology at 888-970-7546.
