What is an Upper Blepharoplasty?

Refine and Improve

An upper eyelid blepharoplasty, commonly known as an eyelid lift, is a surgical cosmetic procedure used to enhance the appearance and function of the upper eyelids by removing and adjusting excess skin, fat, and tissue. This treatment addresses droopy or sagging eyelids that may obstruct vision or cause a tired, aged appearance. By reshaping and rejuvenating the upper eyelids, the procedure provides a more youthful and refreshed look.

Upper Blepharoplasty Candidates

Is This What You’ve Been Looking For?

Ideal candidates for eyelid lift include those who are looking to correct drooping eyelids, eyelid ptosis, hooded eyes, asymmetrical eyelids, fine lines and wrinkles, vision problems, and other concerns. Potential patients should be non-smokers or willing to quit and should not have any chronic, uncontrolled health conditions.

The Upper Blepharoplasty Procedure

Skill And Experience Where It Counts

During your procedure, Dr. Farrior blends modern surgical techniques with artistic skill to enhance the appearance of the upper eyelids by adjusting skin, fat pockets, and other tissue for a natural-looking result. This procedure, which takes about one to two hours, is sometimes performed under general anesthesia but often with local anesthesia and sedation.

Upper Blepharoplasty Results, Recovery, and Aftercare

On Your Way To Confidence

Patients can see some results from upper lid blepharoplasty right after the procedure, but final outcomes are usually visible after about one to two months once residual swelling has resolved. For a few days after surgery, patients may see some swelling and slight bruising and may experience some itchiness. These side effects should resolve on their own, and initial recovery typically lasts about seven to ten days.

Why choose Farrior Facial Plastic Surgery?
