Upper blepharoplasty focuses on removing excess skin, muscle, and fat from the upper eyelids that can cause a tired, aged appearance or even obstruct vision. The incision is carefully placed within the natural crease of the eyelid, ensuring scars are virtually undetectable once healed. This procedure can dramatically open up the eyes, providing refreshed and alert look.
Lower blepharoplasty targets under-eye bags, puffiness, and wrinkles. Depending on your needs, the procedure may involve removing or repositioning fat, tightening muscles, and excising excess skin.
