Blepharoplasty (Eye Lid Surgery)

Aesthetics
Early aging can often be found in the eyes. This can take the form of extra skin and bulging fat for the upper lids. For the lower lids, aging eyes can consist of extra skin, bulging fat, and a prominent circle under the eyes called a “tear tough” deformity. All of these problems can be addressed during blepharoplasty. Performing the upper lids can make your eyes seem brighter and more alert. You look less tired, giving you a more youthful and rested appearance. Performing the lower lids give you a more rested and youthful appearance by removing the “bags” under your eye.

Technique
Dr. Toft performs the upper lids using a hidden stitch technique that makes the skin incision smoother. For the lower lid, Dr. Toft can use one of several techniques tailored to your lower lids. The most common technique is the transconjunctival technique to remove the extra fat, with a skin pinch or laser resurfacing to tighten the skin.
