Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)
Our surgeons at the Plastic Surgery Center also perform eyelid surgery for our patients in the New Jersey and Manhattan area. Many patients arrive at our practice with heavy, drooping upper eyelids or puffy bags beneath the eyes that can make them look tired or older than they really are. For these patients, eyelid surgery can restore a more youthful, alert appearance by removing excess skin and fat from the eyelids. It can also help improve vision if sagging eyelids are interfering with sight.
During eyelid surgery at the New Jersey Plastic Surgery Center, our surgeon makes discreet incisions along the eyelids to remove the excess fat and skin. He then tightens and stitches closed the remaining tissue. In cases where only fat - no skin - needs to be removed from the lower lids, our surgeon can enter through a transconjunctival incision (within the eyelid) with no external incisions. We perform eyelid surgery for our New Jersey, Manhattan and worldwide patients alone or in combination with other facial surgeries such as a brow lift or a facelift. If you would like to explore the advantages of eyelid surgery, please contact us in New Jersey or Manhattan today.
Bags and excess skin of the upper and lower lids give us a tired appearance.
There are two fat pads of the upper lids and three of the lower.
The incisions are designed to be camouflaged and to remove excess skin.
If no skin needs to be removed from the lower lids, a transconjunctival (or inside the eyelid) approach can be used.
With time, the incisions usually are completely inconspicuous.
The final result is a rested, interested, and youthful appearance.
