Brighten, open, and refresh the eyes.
The eyes are the most expressive and captivating part of the face, but they are also among the first areas to show signs of aging. Changes in the eyelids, brow, and surrounding tissues can make you appear tired, sad, or older than you feel. Eyelid and periorbital rejuvenation encompasses procedures designed to restore a more rested, youthful, and approachable appearance while preserving your natural expressions.
Upper Eyelid Surgery (Upper Blepharoplasty)
Upper blepharoplasty removes or repositions excess skin, fat, and sometimes muscle from the upper eyelid. This procedure can correct “hooding,” improve symmetry, and restore definition to the crease. In some cases, upper eyelid surgery also improves vision obstructed by drooping lids.
Best for:
- Heavy or sagging upper eyelids
- Obstructed vision due to excess eyelid skin
- Patients seeking a refreshed, natural appearance
Lower Eyelid Surgery (Lower Blepharoplasty)
Lower blepharoplasty addresses puffiness, under-eye bags, and lax skin beneath the eyes. Fat can be repositioned to fill hollows and smooth contours, while excess skin is removed for a rested, rejuvenated look. This surgery is often combined with skin resurfacing (TCA peel or laser in the future) or fat transfer to further tighten and brighten the under-eye area.
Best for:
- Sagging or crepey lower eyelid skin
- Under-eye bags or puffiness
- Hollowing or dark circles
Brow Lift
As the brows descend with age, the eyes can appear crowded, heavy, or tired. A brow lift repositions the eyebrows to a more youthful height, smooths forehead lines, and softens frown lines between the brows. The goal is never to look “surprised,” but to restore a natural openness to the eye area.
Best for:
- Deep forehead lines or frown lines
- Patients who always look tired, sad, or upset despite feeling well-rested
- Heaviness of the brow pushing down on the eyelids
