Like
rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty at our Alabama
practice is a very popular way to restore youth to one of your
face's most observed features-your eyes. Drooping or sagging
eyelids can add years to one's face, making you look much
older or more tired than you are. Blepharoplasty, or eyelid
surgery, can virtually reverse these signs of aging, firming
the skin around the eyes and restoring its natural, youthful
beauty.
During
the blepharoplasty procedure, extra fat, muscle, and tissue
are trimmed away, and the delicate skin surrounding the eye is
tightened-smoothing away wrinkles and eliminating sagging.
Blepharoplasty (performed under anesthesia) takes up to two
hours to complete and will not prevent any future natural
aging. Side effects of eyelid surgery / blepharoplasty include
dry eyes, swelling, soreness, bruising, and sensitivity to
light.
