Patient Summary
At 51, this patient wanted to address heaviness in her upper eyelids and under-eye concerns for a more refreshed appearance. She underwent upper and lower eyelid blepharoplasty to enhance eyelid contour, reduce puffiness, and brighten her eyes. The result is a naturally rejuvenated look that enhances her features while maintaining her unique expression.
UPPER BLEPHORAPLASTY
Functional & Aesthetic Benefits
Improved Vision and Comfort: For patients whose upper‑lid skin overlaps the eyelashes or even the pupil, the surgery often relieves visual obstruction, eyelid fatigue, or the need to raise eyebrows continuously.
Younger, Brighter Appearance: By lifting the lid platform and reducing hooding, the eyes appear more open and refreshed—yet retain their unique character.
