4 Cosmetic Benefits of Eyelid Surgery
Loose and sagging skin is a natural consequence of ageing and occurs when the skin around the eyes begins to lose its elasticity. Eyelid surgery can reduce bagginess from lower eyelids and removes excess skin from the upper lids to give you a younger and more alert expression.
Some of the incredible cosmetic benefits of eyelid surgery include:
1. Fewer Fine Lines. While this may not be the primary goal of the surgery, many patients will see a significant improvement in those tell-tale signs of ageing. Lifting both the upper and lower eyelids can reduce the wrinkles around the outer corners and lower lid of the eye.
2. No More Bags. Bags below the eyes can give you a tired appearance and a lower eyelid lift can remove them by eliminating any excess skin and tissue below the eye. In some cases, dark circles can be eliminated for a fresher, clearer complexion.
3. A Refreshed Appearance. Blepharoplasty is one of the most effective ways to give your entire face a refreshed appearance. It also enhances the shape and appearance of your eyes, specifically, and this rejuvenated appearance can go a long way in improving your self-confidence and self-esteem.
Top Non-Cosmetic Benefits of Eyelid Surgery
Although eyelid surgery is primarily known as a facial rejuvenation procedure, patients may also benefit from improved vision. During the surgery, excess fatty deposits and tissue around the eyelids are removed, correcting drooping eyelids and resulting in a less obstructed field of view.
