Doctors Explain Upper Bleph Procedures for Aging Eyelids
Plastic surgeons in New York City describe upper bleph procedures that remove excess skin and fat to address drooping eyelids caused by aging.
Procedure Removes Drooping Skin
Blepharoplasty trims or removes excess skin on the eyelids to improve peripheral vision or correct cosmetic issues. Dr Lyle Leipziger at North Shore University Hospital explains surgeons remove skin and reposition fatty tissue near the nose. This process addresses droopiness, puffiness, and under-eye bags while preserving the patient's natural eye shape during surgery.
Candidates Need Normal Brows
Dr Lesley Rabach states best candidates have a normal eyebrow position with excess skin known as dermatochalasia. Surgeons must evaluate eyebrow height, eyelid skin thickness, and how much the eye opens before operating. Sometimes a brow lift or ptosis repair reconstructs eyelid muscles to connect them to the forehead muscle for lifting.
Results Create Refreshed Look
The surgery removes extra skin that often has a crepey texture to create a smoother contour. Ideal candidates are generally in good overall health with realistic expectations about drooping upper eyelid skin. Patients seeking a brighter appearance find this procedure effective when creams cannot correct excess skin around the eyes.
