Upper Blepharoplasty

As we age, our eyes can start to show signs of fatigue and aging. One common issue is the development of excess skin and fat in the upper eyelids, leading to a hooded appearance.

Upper blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a surgical procedure designed to correct these issues, restoring a more youthful and refreshed look.

What is Upper Blepharoplasty?

Upper blepharoplasty is a cosmetic procedure that involves removing excess skin, muscle, and fat from the upper eyelids. This procedure can help to:

  • Improve vision: Excess skin can obstruct your peripheral vision, making it difficult to see clearly.
  • Enhance your appearance: By removing excess skin and fat, you can achieve a more youthful and alert appearance.
