Blepharoplasty - Eyelid Surgery Questions

Serving Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Is blepharoplasty right for me?

Many of our patients find that the signs of aging are more severe around their eyes than anywhere else.

If sagging, drooping eyes are making you look old and tired, blepharoplasty may be just the solution to revitalize your appearance.

Can a blepharoplasty be done in conjunction with other procedures?

Yes. Some patients choose to combine their eyelid surgery with other rejuvenating procedures such as a facelift, facial implants, or skin treatments.

How long will the results last?

Having an eyelid surgery doesn't make your eyelids immune from the effects of further aging. The aging process will continue at its usual rate. However, it can serve to turn back the clock, so that you will always look younger and more vital than you would have if you hadn't had the procedure.

Will I have scarring?

Most scarring following a blepharoplasty is sufficiently minimal that is shouldn't be visible at all. If you've had an upper lid procedure, the incision is made along the lash-line, and for a lower lid procedure, the incision is made in the crease of the lid.
