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.

Blepharoplasty surgery is commonly divided into two categories: an upper blepharoplasty and a lower blepharoplasty. Here are the differences between the two:

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.

Lower Blepharoplasty: This procedure focuses on correcting common aging problems around the lower eye region, including undereye bags, wrinkles, and sagging skin. Lower blepharoplasty surgery is a great choice for candidates who […]

How Much Does an Eyelid Lift Cost?

If you have droopy or sagging eyelids or fatty undereye bags, you may be a good candidate for an eyelid lift. This popular surgical procedure is a great choice for candidates who want to look more rested and alert, as well as tackle saggy eyelids, fatty undereye bags, and other signs of aging around the eyes.

But exactly how much does an eyelid lift cost? Let’s take a look: VIEW MORE PATIENT PHOTOS

The Average Cost of an Eyelid Lift in 2019

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, the average cost of an eyelid lift in 2017 was $3,026; this was the year when data was last available, so you should expect the cost to have slightly increased since then. This cost doesn’t include any fees associated with the surgical center, anesthesia costs, prescription medications, and other expenses. Therefore, you should expect the cost of your eyelid lift to be a bit higher.

The cost of your eyelid lift may be more or less expensive than the average price, as the procedure costs are influenced by where you’re located and the experience level of your plastic surgeon. For example, if you’re based in San Francisco or Los Angeles, […]

Do I Need an Eyebrow Lift or an Eyelid Lift

Are you getting enough sleep, but still feel as though you look tired and fatigued? Are you frustrated by the appearance of sagging skin around your eyes, and want a solution that’s going to help you look more refreshed and rejuvenated?

Then you might be an excellent candidate for an Eyebrow and/or an Eyelid Lift. Both procedures are aimed at correcting sagging skin that comes with the aging process. Both procedures have helped patients look more well-rested and refreshed, as well as turned back the clock on their appearance.

But when it comes down to it, which procedure is right for you – an Eyelid and/or an Eyebrow Lift?

Let’s take a look at the differences between the two procedures, as well as how to tell which one you might be a candidate for:

Eyebrow Lift: An Eyebrow Lift is a surgical procedure that’s meant to subtly lift drooping eyebrows. Many patients notice eyebrow drooping once it becomes difficult to apply eyeshadow, as eyelid skin disappears behind the sagging skin. An Eyebrow Lift gently pulls sagging eyebrow naturally taut, which helps correct sagging around the eyes while addressing unconscious forehead use and therefore forehead wrinkles. The goal is to restore the normal position of the eyebrow, not overly […]

Is Recovery From an Eyelid Lift Painful?

An eyelid lift – also referred to as a blepharoplasty – is an excellent surgical procedure that can help patients who suffer from excess bags around the eyes. The eyelid lift works to correct sagging and drooping upper eyelids while removing fat deposits underneath the lower eyelids. The end result can help patients look more awake and revitalized, all while minimizing the appearance of sagging, wrinkling, and other aging effects.

While blepharoplasty procedures are pretty common (in fact, it’s one of the most popular surgical procedures in the United States), many patients are still concerned about the recovery process. Common questions include:

How long will it take to recover from blepharoplasty?
Is the recovery process painful?
When can I expect to see results?

If you’re considering undergoing blepharoplasty and want to know more about the recovery process, here are the answers to the most common questions, stated above.

How long will it take to recover from blepharoplasty?

It’s usually recommended that you take 1-2 weeks off from work for the recovery process. Much of this time off can be attributed to aesthetic concerns; your eyes will be swollen and bruised, so you may not want to be around coworkers during this time. However, the real recovery length depends […]

An Eyelid Lift Can Awaken Your Eyes

An eyelid lift, or blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure that can substantially improve the appearance of the eyelids, giving them a more youthful appearance. The surgery can be performed on either the lower or upper lids, or both.

Whether one wishes to improve the heaviness of their eyelid region, or the eyelids are not functioning properly, an eyelid lift can rejuvenate the areas around the eyes.

Eyelid surgery can treat:

Sagging or loose skin that disturbs the natural contour of the upper eyelid. (This can sometimes impair vision)
Unwanted deposits of fat that cause puffiness in the eyelids
Droopy bags under the eyes
Lower eyelids that show white below the iris
Too much skin and/or fine wrinkles on the lower eyelid area

The Best Candidates for Blepharoplasty

The best candidates for eyelid surgery include:

Individuals who do not have a serious illness or any type of medical conditions that can stand in the way of healing
Individuals with specific goals in mind for eyelid surgery
People who have positive outlooks as this influences overall health and healing
Those who do not have serious eye conditions
Those who are seeking a plastic surgeon in Torrance

One should keep in mind that the eyelids are a facial feature. When the forehead skin and eyebrows droop, so may […]
