Will I still look like myself after eyelid surgery?

Dr. Palladino uses precision and expertise to remove just enough skin and fat to revitalize your appearance while maintaining your natural look. The results of blepharoplasty, when performed by an artistically skilled cosmetic surgeon, will make you look like a younger version of yourself.

How long do the results of eyelid surgery last?

Eyelid surgery can significantly turn back the clock on your facial appearance, but it, unfortunately, cannot halt it completely. The results of eyelid surgery last many years; however, you still may experience future signs of aging in the eye area. Avoiding smoking and protecting your skin from the sun can help slow the aging process for your complexion.

Eyelid Surgery

The delicate skin around our eyes is susceptible to signs of aging resulting from years of facial expressions and exposure to environmental elements. Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, tightens the eyelid skin and muscle and removes excess fat to brighten and rejuvenate your eyes.

Because the eyelid skin is thin and delicate, the effects of aging on the eyes result in drooping skin, dark circles, or undereye bags that can impede vision or create a tired or worn-down appearance. When you’ve reached your limit with eye creams, you may wish to consider eyelid surgery to restore a youthful, vibrant look to your eyes. Upper and lower blepharoplasty trim away excess skin and fat to lift the eyelids to a brighter, more symmetrical appearance that can take years off your face.
