Blepharoplasty: The Cliffs Notes

Blepharoplasty is the medical name for an  eyelid lift, a specialized, cosmetic eyelid surgery that rejuvenates the eye area by addressing everything from eye hooding to excess eye skin to undereye bags.

It is among the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures because the skin around the eyes is the thinnest, making it prone to showing signs of age. These symptoms can range from sagging upper eyelid skin, which makes it difficult to apply eyeshadow or eyeliner, to dark circles and undereye bags that leave you looking tired even after a sound night’s sleep.

Blepharoplasty, which can be performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids or both, remedies these issues by restoring the youthful shape of the eyelids. After surgery, patients often look more awake and — if sagging skin was impeding their vision — can see better.

As a board-certified oculofacial plastic surgeon, I specialize in modern blepharoplasty, taking a custom, restrained approach that holistically addresses your concerns and desires while maintaining your unique eyelid shape, preserving volume and concealing incisions within the natural structure of the eyelids.
