Also known as blepharoplasty, eyelid surgery improves the appearance of the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. The surgery provides a rejuvenated look in the area around the eyes, making the gaze appear more rested and alert.

• Upper eyelid surgery removes excess fat deposits that appear as swelling on the upper eyelids.
• Loose or sagging skin that creates folds or disrupts the natural contour of the upper eyelid, sometimes affecting vision, can be treated with upper eyelid surgery.
• Lower eyelid blepharoplasty removes excess skin and fine wrinkles on the lower eyelid.
• Bags under the eyes can be corrected by blepharoplasty.
• Lower eyelid surgery can correct drooping lower eyelids.

Blepharoplasty is generally performed on healthy men and women with realistic goals for the surgery.
