Plastic Surgery and Aesthetic Practices

Eye Lid Surgery

Eyelid surgery, known as blepharoplasty, aims to refresh the appearance of the eyelids by addressing issues like sagging upper lids or under-eye bags. The procedure involves removing excess skin, muscle, and fat, sometimes repositioning tissues for a youthful look. Candidates should be healthy with realistic expectations. Typically done under local or general anesthesia, recovery focuses on managing swelling and bruising for a week or two. Risks include infection and asymmetry, underscoring the need for a skilled surgeon. Costs vary, so discussing all aspects with a board-certified surgeon is essential for informed decision-making.
