Surgical Blepharoplasty
Eyelid Surgery for a Youthful, Alert Look | London & Truro
Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the eyelids to restore a more youthful and refreshed appearance. As we age, eyelids tend to stretch, and the muscles supporting them weaken, causing sagging eyebrows, droopy upper eyelids, and bags under the eyes. This surgery can not only rejuvenate the appearance of your eyes but also improve peripheral vision by removing excess skin that may obstruct the visual field.
Blepharoplasty is ideal for addressing:
Baggy or droopy upper eyelids
Excess skin on the upper eyelids, which may partially block peripheral vision
Excess skin on the lower eyelids
Bags under the eyes
For many people, this surgery offers long-lasting results, making them feel more confident, youthful, and rested. While bruising and swelling typically subside within 10 to 14 days, scars from the incisions may take several months to fade. Post-surgery care, including sun protection, is essential to protect the delicate eyelid skin.
