What is a Blepharoplasty Eyelid Lift?

As aging progresses, there is progressive stretching of the skin of the upper and lower lids, along with the loss of muscle tone and bulging of eyelid fat pads. Not only does this make you look tired and older, but it can progressively affect your peripheral, and upper vision. This sagging and drooping of upper and lower eyelids or brows can be corrected by Blepharoplasty leaving you looking fresh, alert and young.

There are three components of this operation, which are generally used together or sometimes separately as needed.If you have experienced a lowering and heaviness of the eyebrow, then you need a Brow Lift. This can be done either through the eyelid crease or through the hairline of the forehead.

Upper Lid Blepharoplasty consists of taking out all the excess skin that droops and also removing any excess fatty bumps from the upper eyelid.

Lower Lid Lift (Blepharoplasty), this operation can be done either through a transconjunctival approach (scarless technique) or through a hidden crease incision at the top of the lower lid. The operation consists of readjusting, removing or repositioning of the fat pads and if required removal of the excess skin along with tightening of the lower eyelid.
