What is Upper Blepharoplasty?

An upper blepharoplasty focuses on the upper eyelids, reducing excess skin and tightening the muscles in the area to give a more alert appearance and improved vision.

Ptosis, a condition where you have drooping eyes which can block vision, is often a reason patients pursue an upper blepharoplasty for reasons that are other than cosmetic. Upper blepharoplasty, whether performed for cosmetic reasons or functional reasons, is one of the most frequent operations performed on the face. The procedure is pain-free and recovery takes about a week.
