Your eyes can be the first place to show the signs of aging. This occurs because the skin in the eyelids is quite thin and subject to the rigorous stress and strain of a daily routine. For some, this results in always looking tired, unhappy or as if you've had a bad night's rest. Others will see fattiness or bags in the lower lids that are inherited and are visible at a young age.

With our techniques, most people will not realize that you have had eyelid surgery. The result to you can be dramatic and rewarding. No one procedure can accommodate all concerns. Depending on the exact nature of the problem, lower eyelid surgery can be done using a scarless approach, which addresses the excess fat or heaviness in the lower lid, or can also be tailored to improve eyelid support and reduce skin excess.

Eyelid surgery can also be combined with forehead or browlift to raise the drooping or sagging eyebrow. Eyelid surgery can take one to two hours and can be combined with other facial enhancements if you wish. After eyelid surgery, some soreness is to be expected with some swelling or bruising. Typically, patients are up and around the day after surgery. The bruising resolves gradually and can usually be covered with makeup or concealers. You can expect to look refreshed and alert.
