Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin, fat, or muscle from the eyelids. It can be performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both.
The procedure improves appearance and may also improve vision when excess skin obstructs sight.
Cosmetic vs Medical Blepharoplasty
Cosmetic blepharoplasty focuses on appearance. Medical blepharoplasty may be necessary for functional reasons.
A medical assessment determines eligibility.
Blepharoplasty vs Non-Surgical Options
Non-surgical services such as Facial Treatments improve skin texture but cannot remove excess tissue. Surgery provides structural correction.
Who Performs Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty is performed by plastic surgeons or ophthalmic surgeons in a clinical setting.
