WHAT IS A BLEPHAROPLASTY?
Tired of looking tired? Do your sagging eyelids make you appear older than you feel? It’s time to rejuvenate your eyes and regain your youthful radiance with a Blepharoplasty – one of the most common facial cosmetic treatments in the United States.
Also known as eyelid surgery, a Blepharoplasty involves removing extra fat or skin from the upper and lower eyelids to correct sagging eyelids that may impair eyesight. Patients who have undergone eyelid surgery have achieved a more youthful, rejuvenated look.
Blepharoplastiesare carried out at Zion Plastic Surgery’s accredited and registered surgical center. Our expert surgeons have decades of experience with this highly safe and simple surgery. Incisions will be made across the upper eyelid creases and sometimes around the outer lower rim of the eyelid’s skin. Zion’s surgeons skillfully apply this technique to remove excess skin and fat, eliminating bagginess and restoring the firmness and definition of your eyelids.
