Brighten Your Outlook
Blepharoplasty, commonly known as eyelid surgery, corrects droopy eyelids by removing excess skin, muscle, and sometimes fat. Depending on the patient's needs, this surgery can be performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. The primary purpose of blepharoplasty is to enhance the appearance of the eyes, making them look more youthful and alert while also improving any vision problems caused by sagging eyelids.
For a More Youthful Appearance
On the day of your blepharoplasty at WINK Aesthetics by Atlantic Eye, our plastic surgeons begin by marking the areas to be treated. After administering local anesthesia and sedation, they make precise incisions along the natural creases of your eyelids to minimize visible scarring. The surgeon then removes or repositions excess skin, muscle, and fat to achieve the desired contour.
The procedure typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on whether both upper and lower eyelids are addressed. After the incisions are closed with sutures, you will spend some time in recovery before being discharged with detailed aftercare instructions.
