BLEPHAROPLASTY: UPPER EYELID RESHAPING SURGERY
This cosmetic eye surgery deals with the contours of the upper eyelid space. This procedure concerns the removal of excess skin and muscle. The goal is to create a more youthful appearance by reducing sagging skin, lifting the area and reducing hooded lids. The skin and muscles surrounding the eyes weaken and stretch as a result of gravity’s downward pull and a loss of skin elasticity. This leads to an accumulation of loose skin and fat protrusions that give the impression of “eye bags” or a hooded look of the upper eyelid skin. Smoking, sun exposure, and weight loss may all have an accelerating influence on this feature, which may run in families.
