What is Upper Blepharoplasty?
Upper blepharoplasty removes excess skin and fat from the upper eyelids, addressing:
-
Drooping Eyelids: Improves sagging skin that may obscure vision or contribute to a tired appearance.
-
Puffy Upper Lids: Reduces puffiness caused by excess fat deposits.
-
Fine Wrinkles: Minimizes fine lines on the upper eyelid area.
This procedure can be both aesthetic and functional, enhancing the appearance of the eyes while improving peripheral vision in some cases.
