Eyelid Surgery –Blepharoplasty

Facial flaws and premature signs of aging, especially drooping eyelids, can make a person appear tired and older than they truly are. Unfortunately, we can’t gain back time, but we can reverse signs of facial aging. Loose, hanging skin in the upper eyelid area and puffiness and wrinkles in the lower eyelid area can be corrected with surgery. Eyelid surgery, or “blepharoplasty,” can remove the effects of years of damage due to aging, stress, gravity, sun exposure, and smoking. Eyelid surgery can create a more refreshed appearance through the removal of loose skin and excess fat in the eyelids. In essence, eyelid surgery can help a person show their true beauty by making their outer appearance reflect how they feel on the inside.

Achieved With Eyelid Surgery

A Refreshed, Natural Look

Many people with excess skin hanging over the eyes often find they get told they look tired, angry, or sad. Eyelid surgery can help a patient achieve natural-looking, more “open” eyelids that create an overall refreshed and less tired appearance. Beyer Eye Associates have the experience and skillfulness fashion in order to provide each patient with the best results. By using hidden incisions and the finest of sutures, Beyer Eye Associates can offer this procedure with no visible scarring. The eyelids will not appear “fake” or operated on. This will help a patient achieve natural-looking eyelids that no longer look tired or worn out.

Diminished Lines & Wrinkles

In addition to correcting loose, hanging skin in the upper eyes, eyelid surgery will also diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes. When excess skin is removed and the remaining skin is pulled taut, it will smooth out wrinkles and fine lines. During eyelid surgery, Beyer Eye Associates will carefully tighten the skin and close the incisions with very fine sutures. By doing so, patients can expect eyes that look smoother, more refreshed, and nearly ten years younger.
