The area around our eyes is one of the first places on our face to exhibit signs of aging. Blepharoplasty, commonly known as eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic surgery that can easily correct sagging upper eyelids and under-eye bags that come with age. With this cosmetic surgery, Mr. Salerno at Real Cosmetic & Plastic Surgery in Melbourne can help to refresh the appearance of your face and leave it looking years younger.
Cosmetic eyelid procedures can dramatically improve the appearance of droopy and tired eyes. This is achieved by taking away excess pockets of fat and skin from the upper and/or lower eyelids. Many patients combine this cosmetic procedure with other treatments such as a brow lift to remove drooping eyebrows.
Ideal Candidates for Blepharoplasty
Everyone is not an ideal candidate for blepharoplasty. The right candidate can understand this cosmetic surgery is intended to eliminate under-eye bags, rectify puffy upper eyelids, and restore vision that is blocked by excess fat and skin in the eyelids. However, some medical and ophthalmic conditions can exclude you from having the eyelid surgery procedure performed.
The Procedure
Some patients may undergo upper and lower eyelid procedures, and some may undergo the procedure on just the upper or lower eyelids. If you are getting treatment for your upper eyelid, the surgeon can reposition fat deposits, tighten tissues and muscles and/or remove excess skin to leave the eye looking refreshed and younger.
How Long Do the Results Last?
Patients can see the results of eyelid surgery after a fully recovery. This surgery gives long-lasting results. While eyelid surgery cannot prevent your eyes from aging, most patients derive satisfaction from the procedure and do not come back for repeat procedures.
