What is Eyelid Lifting?

Starting from: $1,900   Local or General anesthesia   Average duration: 1 hour   Permanency: 10+ years

Upper Eyelid Lift

As eyelid skin is the thinnest skin on the face, it is often the first to show deterioration. Over the course of aging, the thin skin of the upper lid stretches and sags, forming skin folds that gravity pulls downwards. That produces a "hooded" eyelid effect and can also impede vision. Blepharoplasty refers to a surgical procedure that improves the shape of the eyelids and reduces sagging eyelid skin. An Upper Blepharoplasty removes the excess or stretched skin of the upper eye/eyelid to reduce a puffy, "hooded" eyelid appearance.

Lower Eyelid Lift

Puffy under-eye skin and eye area wrinkles can leave you looking tired, exhausted, or prematurely aged. A Lower Blepharoplasty can help surgically reduce under-eye "bags" and provide improvements to under-eye wrinkles, lines, and puffiness. During a Lower Blepharoplasty, an incision is made under the lower lash area of the eye. Excess skin and fat are then carefully removed, repositioned, or lifted to create a fresher, smoother, and more youthful appearance.

Upper + Lower Eyelid Lift

Patients may choose to have a combined Upper and Lower Blepharoplasty, sometimes known as a "Double Bleph". A Double Bleph can help to reduce the traces of aging by helping candidates to restore a toned, healthy-looking skin area above and below the eye.
