Eyelid surgery

Face

What does eyelid surgery change in the face?

Extra upper-lid skin and lower-lid bags give a tired look. Blepharoplasty eases that look in a measured way.

Eyelid surgery

Upper-lid surgery removes skin that can weigh on the gaze. Lower lids are assessed for bags and hollows together; not every bag is removed, or the eye can look empty.

Recovery is often shorter than a facelift. Bruising and swelling in the first days are still expected.

If a low brow is the real issue, taking lid skin alone is not enough. That distinction is made at consultation.
