Upper & Lower Lid Excess Skin

Cosmetic Eyelid Surgery

Look Younger, See Better. A blepharoplasty is a type of cosmetic procedure that tightens the skin around the eyes, focusing in particular on the eyelids. Also known as an eye lift, this lid surgery will reduce the droopiness from the upper eyelids and eliminate extra skin from the lower eyelids. This surgery is often done for cosmetic reasons, but it can also fix sight problems caused by eyelid skin drooping down over the field of vision.

upper lid

Excess skin of the upper lids decreases our peripheral vision, making it more difficult to keep our lids fully open. It can also push our eyelashes into the eyes. By removing the excess skin (and fat when indicated), these issues are eliminated.

lower lid

Excess skin and laxity of the lower lid can cause the lid to sag and for the lashes to either turn in rubbing the eye, or for tearing to occur. By removing any excess skin and fat and tightening the lid, these problems are eliminated.
