What Is Blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that corrects:

  • Loose or sagging skin on the upper eyelids
  • Puffiness or bags under the lower eyelids

This procedure is frequently chosen for:

  • Aesthetic rejuvenation of the eyes and surrounding facial features
  • Vision obstruction correction (functional)

Types of Eyelid Surgery We Offer

➤ Upper Eyelid Lift

It removes excess skin that may impair peripheral vision or create a “hooded” appearance. It is common in patients 40 years of age and older.

➤ Lower Eyelid Lift

It targets fat pads and loose skin below the eyes. It is ideal for reducing under-eye bags, wrinkles, and a tired look.

Benefits of Blepharoplasty

  • Wider, more youthful-looking eyes
  • Reduction of droopy lids and puffiness
  • Enhanced field of vision
  • Minimal scarring with hidden incisions
  • Performed in-office by experts with years of experience

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may benefit from blepharoplasty if you:

  • Notice sagging upper eyelids or obstructed vision
  • Struggle with persistent under-eye bags or creases
  • Are in good health and a non-smoker
  • Have realistic goals for facial rejuvenation

How the Procedure Works

At SLD, we perform most blepharoplasty procedures in-office under local anesthesia, with optional light sedation.

What to Expect:

  • Consultation – Personalized treatment planning with before-and-after previews
  • Surgery Day – Incisions are placed within the eyelid’s natural folds
  • Recovery – Most patients return to regular activities within 7–10 days

Recovery Timeline

  • Day 1–3: Swelling, mild bruising
  • Day 5–7: Sutures removed (if applicable)
  • Week 2–3: Return to work, social activities
  • 1 Month+: Final results visible; incision lines fade

We provide custom aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.
