Eyelid Rejuvenation
Some 100,000 men and women this year will choose to undergo blepharoplasty (eyelid lift) to look younger and even improve vision by removing the excess fat, muscle and skin from upper and lower lids that causes the puffiness and bags under their eyes that make them look tired.
This surgical procedure is intended to give the eyes a brighter, more rested appearance by correcting the heaviness and puffiness around the eyes thereby revealing one's natural beauty. This is done without changing the natural contours of this area. Lower eyelid corrective surgery is performed without any external incisions. When appropriate, lasers are used to tighten and smooth the skin of the eyelids to provide maximum aesthetic enhancement.
When the eyelid is normal, the goal should be to maintain the eye shape, but if it is loose or not functioning properly, this should also be addressed during surgery. If the brow also needs lifting at the time of eyelid rejuvenation, facial proportions should be examined. Dr. Yellin will ensure that proportion, balance and symmetry are considered when making a surgical recommendation.
