What is blepharoplasty?
What is blepharoplasty? Blepharoplasty is a surgery that corrects the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both, removing excess skin, fat, or muscle. This procedure not only has an aesthetic purpose; in some cases, it can also improve vision when drooping skin affects the field of view.
Blepharoplasty can be performed as an independent treatment or combined with other procedures for complete facial rejuvenation. Results are long-lasting and can make a significant difference in the appearance and function of the eyes.
