Age changes the eyes much as with other facial features, and drooping eyelids are one of the first signs of aging. The muscles around the eyes often weaken, allowing fatty tissue to protrude through them, producing the commonly seen bags or pouches. Bags under the eyes usually are associated with the aging process, but it also may be an inherited characteristic or related to certain diseases. Blepharoplasty (eyelift surgery) eliminates excess skin and fat in your upper and lower eyelids. Although Blepharoplasty can improve the look of your eyes and tighten the skin, it doesn't remove dark circles.
In addition, as the eyebrows descend, an accumulation of excess skin above the eyes can lead to a tired, hooded appearance, causing makeup to rub off onto the upper lid. Sometimes these hoods can be so prominent that they affect vision. In this case, Blepharoplasty may be covered by insurance.
We commonly conduct upper and lower lid corrections during the same procedure, but lid corrections can be performed on just the upper or lower lids. Upper and lower eyelids can give us the appearance of feeling tired all the time. Sometimes it can even make the lines in our foreheads more noticeable because we are straining to keep our eyes open. Eyelid surgery or blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that Dr. Chrzanowski specializes in that reduces the appearance of droopy lids. Incisions are very well hidden. After 1 to 2 weeks of bruising and swelling, the patient will look and feel great!
