What Is Upper Blepharoplasty?
Upper eyelid surgery, medically known as upper blepharoplasty, addresses excess skin, muscle, and fat in the upper eyelid area that creates hooded appearance and may impair peripheral vision. This sophisticated procedure removes redundant tissue while preserving essential eyelid function and natural eye contours.
The surgical technique involves carefully placed incisions within the natural eyelid crease, allowing Dr. Eskenazi to remove appropriate amounts of skin and fat while maintaining proper eyelid mechanics. The result is refreshed, alert eyes that maintain natural expression and movement while eliminating the tired, aged appearance caused by excess upper eyelid tissue.
