Under eye bags and sagging upper eyelids that come with age can be corrected through cosmetic eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty. Droopy eyelids can make you look older and can also impair vision. Blepharoplasty corrects these problems and also removes puffiness and bags under the eyes that make you look worn and tired. Blepharoplasty removes the excess fat, muscle, and skin from both upper and lower lids. Blepharoplasty can also fix crow’s feet, which are the fine liens and wrinkles found around a person’s eyes. In this procedure, excess skin and fat are removed from the upper eyelid. For the lower eyelid, excess skin is removed if necessary. The fat responsible for bagginess is either removed or relocated to eliminate sunken appearance. The results can be a refreshed appearance, with a younger, firmer eye area.
Blepharoplasty is not just a cosmetic thing; it is a crucial operation that can help prevent the loss of peripheral vision. When there is a great deal of upper eyelid skin it can intrude with the eyelashes. This procedure can take up to three hours to finish. Recovery time is for the bruising and swelling can be up to two weeks, for 100% recovery a few months are needed.
