Revive Your Youthful Look with Blepharoplasty

Posted on January 19th, 2015 in Facial Surgery

One of the most common signs of aging is droopy eyelids and this can be exaggerated if you are genetically predisposed to developing sagging or droopy lids. While Botox and skin tightening treatments around the brow area can resolve some of these issues, the results are temporary and may not be able to target excess skin. Blepharoplasty, otherwise known as eyelid surgery, can help you achieve that fresh-faced look by tightening the skin around the eyelids for long-lasting results. We can perform eyelid surgery on the upper, lower, or both areas for dramatic results.

Signs You Are Ready for Blepharoplasty

Eyelid surgery is an attractive option for patients who have reached middle age or are older and have noticeable wrinkles and sagging skin around the eyes. If you’re not quite ready for facelift surgery but still want to enhance your appearance, eyelid surgery may be the perfect procedure for you. Some of the signs you are ready for blepharoplasty include:

• Puffiness around the upper eyes or underneath the eyes
• Very noticeable under eye bags
• Excess skin above the eyes that is contributing to sagging
• Fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes
• Fat pads around the eyes

All of these problems can be corrected with eyelid surgery, which involves removing excess skin and fat, and manipulating the tissues to create a more aesthetically-pleasing appearance. Dr. Mouchantat will use a variety of techniques to treat this delicate area without causing excessive trauma to the surrounding tissues.

What to Expect with Eyelid Surgery

Eyelid surgery can produce dramatically younger-looking results, especially if you had very droopy eyes, significant puffiness around the eyes, or fat pads under the eyes. We can combine this procedure with a brow lift and non-surgical facial rejuvenation procedures to further enhance your appearance. Dr. Mouchantat can share eyelid surgery before and after photos during your consultation so you have realistic expectations about the outcome of your procedure. If you have been thinking about investing in yourself with a cosmetic procedure, consider the benefits of eyelid surgery to revive your youthful look.
