Overview

Do you experience saggy eyelids, making you look older than you actually are?
Upper Blepharoplasty surgery is the best procedure to improve droopy eyelids that cover the iris, making it harder to see and making you look old. You might start using your forehead because you cannot see as well as before, leading to a vicious circle of more wrinkles, more saggy eyelids and more aging in general.

Upper blepharoplasty surgery will make sure that any excess skin or fat that leads to sagging above the eyes will be removed, which will make you look younger. The doctor creates incisions around the double crease in the upper eyelid area, removing the excess eyelid fat and sagging skin. Droopy muscles are tightened to make sure that it becomes easier to open the eyes again.

Upper Blepharoplasty Surgery Checklist:


· Are your upper eyelids covering part of your eyes? · Did your upper eyelids start sagging more recently? · Do you feel like there is a lot of loose skin and fat in the upper eyelid area? · Would you like to look younger and more awake again?
