Eyelid surgery (also known medically as Blepharoplasty or surgery of the eyelids) is a cosmetic procedure for removing fat and excess skin from around the upper and lower eyelids. According to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, Eyelid Surgery is one of the top 5 most popular forms of Plastic Surgery. The procedure is very popular for people with drooping or puffy eyelids. This procedure will not remove crow's feet or wrinkles around the eyes. There are alternative procedures for removing wrinkles like a brow lift, a meso-lift, or thermage be sure to ask a qualified doctor or Ophthalmologist for more details and options for your specific case. BOTOX Cosmetic injections are the most popular form of temporary relief for crow's feet around the eyes at this time.
Eyelid Surgery for Asian Eyes - Blepharoplasty is also used for adding a crease or fold to the nearly one half of all Asian eyes which do not have a natural fold to make these patients look more bright eyed. This procedure is rarely done to make remove ethnicity or as a form of cultural rejection. Blepharoplasty eyelid surgery is the most commonly requested cosmetic surgery in the Asian community.
Properly performed this surgery is designed to make you look younger and in some cases to improve your vision but removing the droopy skin from around your eyes. Over 100,000 people have this procedure performed every year. As always, healthy expectations are very important before having this or any other cosmetic surgery performed.
