A Permanent Solution For Refreshed and Refined Eyelids

Patients seeking to alter the appearance of their eyes for age related or esthetic reasons often find that eyelid surgery is the most effective and long-lasting solution. While there are several options for nonsurgical eyelid rejuvenation, eyelid surgery will precisely and carefully reposition the delicate skin and muscle tissue around the orbital structure to permanently achieve a refreshed, rejuvenated, and refined appearance.  There are several reasons Appearance Center patients seek out our cosmetic eyelid specialists. The most common are listed below.

Signs of aging in the upper and lower eyelid stem from two key factors: the body’s tendency to produce less collagen and elastin in the skin, and the body’s tendency to lose or displace fat as we age. In the upper eyelid, aging is marked by a heavy brow and sagging or looseness in the skin above the lash line. In extreme cases upper eyelid skin can droop over the lash line. This is referred to as “hooding.” In the lower eyelid, aging is marked by moderate to severe wrinkling, excess skin, hollowing and heaviness beneath the eye. Hollowing and heaviness often create what is commonly referred to as “eye bags.”  Appearance Center eyelid surgeons can help patients rejuvenate their tired and aging eyelids, safely, and with great finesse and attention to detail. This level of expertise is imperative when surgically altering this very delicate and sensitive area of the face. Procedures recommended for surgical eyelid rejuvenation include one or more of the following: 

• Upper Blepharoplasty – reducing signs on sagging in the upper eyelid, refining the shape of the eyelid.
• Lower Blepharoplasty – removing eye bags, reducing eyelid wrinkles, and repositioning or replacing the body’s natural fat loss to lessen the appearance of hollow or aging eyes.
• Quad Blepharoplasty – addressing the eyelids with both upper blepharoplasty and lower blepharoplasty. 
• Brow Lift (Forehead Lift) – addressing aging in the upper eyelid by altering the support structure of the eyebrow.
• Nonsurgical Treatments – combining treatments, such as Botox, filler, laser treatments, and chemical peels to enhance the rejuvenative results of the surgical procedure.
