Blepharoplasty
Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery,
is performed to repair sagging or drooping eyelids. When the surgery is
performed on patients for cosmetic reasons, blepharoplasty is considered
elective surgery. When eyelid changes are severe in elderly patients it
may sometimes be undertaken to open up the field of vision impaired by
overhanging skin. This cosmetic procedure is usually done while the patient
is conscious or sedated but under local anesthesia. The incisions are
made in the natural creases or folds of the eyelids while the loose skin
and excess fat tissue are removed. The eyelid muscles are tightened and
the incision is stitched closed. The blepharoplasty procedure is often
performed alone, but your surgeon may also recommend a face lift or other
facial cosmetic procedure to achieve the best results.
