The eyes are the focal point of your face - they're what people notice first when conversing. Eyelid surgery is the third most common plastic surgery procedure.
Eyelid Procedures
Nothing makes you look more tired than baggy eyelids; most of the time this is due to heredity and genes. Those affected with baggy eyelids start showing signs of puffiness and inflammation as early as their teenage years. Blepharoplasty is the surgical procedure to remove the fat that causes baggy eyes and eyelids. Other things such as Botox can help the eyelids look less puffy, but only blepharoplasty is a long term solution. Some fat around and under the eyes is normal and the amount of puffiness is not usually associated with weight. It's just as likely for a thin person to have puffy eyelids as overweight people. Puffy eyes are not the only thing that can make your eyelids and your face look old - drooping eyelids also add to an overall tired and old look.
Blepharoplasty procedure
Incisions are are made in the natural creases of the eyelids so that no scarring is visible; the loose skin under the
eyes is removed. Average surgical recovery times for eyelid surgery is 5-10 days.
