What is a Blepharoplasty?
Do you have excess fat, skin, dark circles or puffy bags under your eyes?
Blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery is a wonderful procedure that removes excess fat, skin and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. It can correct drooping upper lids and puffy bags below your eyes - features that make you look older and more tired than you feel, and may even interfere with your vision.
In Asian eyes, the procedure can add an upper eyelid crease while still preserving your ethnic or racial heritage. Blepharoplasty can be performed as a procedure by itself or simultaneously with other necessary procedures:
A forehead lift to correct a drooping brow and smooth the forehead, skin resurfacing to removed wrinkles and sun damaged skin, or Botox / Dysport for the fine lines, such as those in the crow’s feet area. Some patients present with dark circles under the eyes and are excellent candidates for a filler placed into the tear trough.
A consultation with Los Angeles Eyelid Surgery specialist, Dr. Bublik, can help you decide whether any additional procedures would enhance the successful outcome of your eyelid surgery. Dr Bublik has extensive experience with eyelid surgery and does not use a “cookie-cutter” approach. This means your care will be individualized based on your needs, desires, and expectations.
