Eyelid lift surgery, also known as “blepharoplasty,” is a common cosmetic procedure used to rejuvenate the youthfulness and attractiveness of the eye area. The goal of this procedure is to remove wrinkles and sagging skin in the upper and lower eyelid areas, enhancing the overall facial appearance and making the eyes appear more youthful and vibrant.
1. Eyelid Lift Surgery
One of the common cosmetic procedures at Creative Arts Aesthetic, eyelid lift surgery is performed under local or general anesthesia. The reason for this is the sagging of the skin around the eyes, especially under the eyes, due to various reasons including genetics, aging, collagen, and elastin loss. Many seek to eliminate these wrinkles and puffiness around the eyes to give a more youthful appearance. In this procedure, excess skin and fat are removed, and the eyelids are reshaped to achieve a youthful and tighter appearance.
