Eyelid Lift

Frequently the eye area ages more rapidly than other facial skin because of years of squinting, sun exposure, and facial animation. The rejuvenation of the skin and soft tissue around the eyes can give a more rested, refreshed, and youthful appearance. Outpatient eyelid surgery can remove or reposition excess fat and drooping skin, minimize bags, and tighten skin and is often done under local anesthesia with sedation. Sometimes modifying the angle of the eyelid tilt or simple techniques of eyelid skin rejuvenation can restore the facial harmony that makeup is unable to. Fillers and fat grafting may be used to minimize hollow areas below the eyes.
