Benefits of Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)

Have you been told you have beautiful eyes? Over time, loose skin and puffiness can hide your eyes and make you look tired. Eyelid surgery or blepharoplasty can rejuvenate your eye area and correct signs of aging. As a result, you look youthful and alert with minimal recovery time and long-lasting results. 

What is Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)?

The thin, delicate skin around the eye area moves constantly with every blink and facial expression. Over time, these effects lead to drooping eyelids, undereye bags, and wrinkled skin. Eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty or an eyelid lift, is among the most popular types of facial surgery, and it can be performed on the upper lids, lower lids, or both simultaneously.

What is Asian Blepharoplasty?

Concerns about the eye area are one of the most common reasons Asian Americans seek aesthetic surgery. Asian blepharoplasty is the most commonly performed aesthetic surgery in Asia. It is also the third most common procedure for Asian Americans. In the hands of a skilled surgeon, Asian blepharoplasty lets you look like yourself but with more aesthetically pleasing eyes. 

What is Asian Blepharoplasty?

Asian blepharoplasty is also known as double eyelid surgery. About half of all East Asian individuals have a pronounced eyelid crease. This crease can make the eyes look tired or even obstruct vision. An Asian blepharoplasty creates a supratarsal crease to give the eyes a more open, alert appearance. In the hands of a skilled surgeon, this procedure balances your goals with preserving your ethnic beauty. 

Asian blepharoplasty addresses three ways that Asian eyelids tend to differ from Caucasian ones:

  • Double eyelid (lack of a supratarsal fold)
  • Thicker, heavier-looking eyelids
  • Hooding, especially in the inner corners of the eye

In addition to blepharoplasty, some people choose to have another procedure. These can include

Brow Lift vs. Eyelid Lift

These two procedures work around the eyes, but they have different methods and focuses.

Brow Lift

An eyebrow lift readjusts the eyebrow back to its natural position and adjusts the skin to smooth out the forehead lines. If you have difficulty applying eyeshadow due to your eyelid skin disappearing, a brow lift may be best for you.

The eyebrow should sit above the bone for women and right on the bone for men. With age, however, the eyebrow droops down. During the day, the eyebrow will lift itself, causing wrinkles and crinkles on the forehead. An eyebrow lift […]

Is an Eyelid Lift Part of a Facelift?

The answer is, it depends on the results you want from your surgical procedure.

Here’s the scoop: a blepharoplasty procedure is commonly added to a facelift to help produce maximum results, but it doesn’t have to be part of a facelift.

What is a Blepharoplasty?

A blepharoplasty procedure is more commonly known as an eyelid lift. This popular surgery is an excellent choice for candidates who have signs of eyelid drooping, sagging skin, bags under their eyes, and more.

  • Upper Blepharoplasty: This surgery is designed to correct bagginess around the upper eyelid, as well as the eyebrow region. The upper blepharoplasty surgery can also address skin folds, wrinkles, and lines that may make the patient appear as though they’re constantly tired or half-focused.
