Home Blepharoplasty Blepharoplasty – What Can Eyelid Surgery Correct?

November 1, 2016

As you age, your skin and muscles become weaker. In areas with thin and sensitive skin, such as the eyelids, the change is more pronounced. Blepharoplasty can correct aging issues and restore the eyelids.

If you have sagging eyelids that hinder your field of view, excess skin on the upper eyelids, or lower lids that expose part of the eye, blepharoplasty may be the solution. By removing the excess tissue and adjusting fat and muscle tissue in the eyelid area, a more youthful appearance is created, and any vision issues caused by the eyelids can be corrected.
