Eyelid reductions are one of the most common plastic surgery operations. They can be done alone or at the same time as other facial surgery. Eyelid surgery, also known as a blepharoplasty, is a procedure that removes excess fatty tissue and/or loose skin surrounding the eyes to give the area a more rejuvenated appearance.
The aim of blepharoplasty surgery is to improve facial appearance and reduce the signs of ageing. It treats excess fatty deposits that appear as puffiness in the upper eyelids as well as loose or sagging skin that creates folds or disturbs the natural contour of the upper eyelid, sometimes impairing vision. Also bags under the eyes and excess skin and fine wrinkles of the lower eyelid.
