When patients come into our practice to discuss their options for eyelid surgery (medically referred to as blepharoplasty), the most common complaint we hear is that their eyes look tired, regardless of how much they are sleeping at night. Other concerns include sagging skin that can make you look older than you actually are or skin folds that can cause vision obstruction and inhibit your upper visual fields.
Candidacy for eyelid surgery, also known as eyelid lift, is less dependent on gender or age and more dependent on the patients’ satisfaction with their own appearance. The procedure can provide you with a method to freshen up your appearance with natural-looking results. In some instances, patients choose to have both an upper and a lower eyelid lift for a more comprehensive periorbital rejuvenation.
Blepharoplasty is a safe, effective means of helping our patients at Hankins & Sohn Plastic Surgery take years off their appearance without significant downtime. We encourage anyone who is considering eyelid surgery to visit a board-certified plastic surgeon to determine his or her individual candidacy for surgery.
