Blepharoplasty—more easily referred to as eyelid surgery—is a simple procedure wherein excess skin, fat, and muscle can be removed to improve the aesthetic of a patient’s eyelids.
Here are a few of the most common signs that you may want to consider blepharoplasty:
Sagging or Drooping Eyelids
Eyelid surgery is most commonly sought out to resolve disruptive drooping or sagging of the eyelids. This is typically a result of your skin’s natural loss of elasticity as it ages. For the most part, this is a cosmetic issue that can cause your face to appear more tired.
Severe cases of eyelid sagging can occur in a condition known as ptosis, wherein the upper eyelid’s sagging causes not only physical discomfort but also partial vision loss or impairment.
Asymmetrical Eyelids
As a result of genetics or a previous surgical procedure, inconsistencies and asymmetry between your eyelids could be a problem you struggle with. Through eyelid surgery conducted by a trusted, board-certified plastic surgeon, these imbalances can be corrected to improve the appearance of your eyes and, consequently, the rest of your face.
Bagginess, Puffiness, and Dark Circles Under the Eyes
Caused by factors similar to those that lead to sagging eyelids, dark circles, bags, and puffiness can also begin to form underneath your eyes (as well as wrinkles). When these are caused or exacerbated by excess skin or fat, blepharoplasty can help provide a more energetic and refreshed appearance.
