Blepharoplasty – Eyelid surgery

Blepharoplasty is a cosmetic surgery procedure that corrects drooping eyelids and removes excess tissue from the undereye area. The aim is to reverse the effects of ageing and give the face a rested and refreshed look.

The eyes are a stand-out facial feature, and often the first feature that we notice. A bright, refreshed and rested look can be achieved even at a more mature age, which makes eyelid surgery one of the most frequently performed cosmetic procedures. It is relatively simple and routine, yet effective and efficient, and a great example of a low-risk, high-reward procedure.

Eyelid surgery is a cosmetic procedure that is equally popular with both women and men. People who opt for this procedure suffer from clear loss of elasticity and sagging of the skin, creating an aesthetically unpleasant appearance. The large majority of patients undergo eyelid surgery for functional instead of cosmetic reasons as the excess skin on the eyelids can obstruct vision and narrow a person’s field of vision. Sagging eyelids can also be caused by a pre-existing acute medical condition, thyroid disease, injury or accident.
