Eyelid Surgery Orange County

Beautiful, engaging, inviting eyes are one of the most essentials components to a youthful appearance and are often the most colorful feature of the face. Our eyes are unique and allow for an incredible range of emotional expression. Age-related changes appear in the eyes – more than any other part of the body – due to squinting, sun damage and genetics. The skin of the upper eyelid loses its elasticity creating a wrinkled, saggy appearance while the lid starts its downward descent resulting in a tired expression that dramatically emphasizes aging.

WHAT IS UPPER BLEPHAROPLASTY?
Blepharoplasty is a surgery performed to restore the upper eyelids to their more youthful, vital appearance. During the procedure, Dr. Yeh uses advanced techniques to remove excess fat, skin and muscle that are responsible for the aged appearance of the upper eyelids. Upper Eyelid Surgery does not correct Crow’s Feet, forehead wrinkles/ furrows or sagging eyebrows. Patients often choose to have a Forehead/Brow Lift and Injectable treatments to correct these issues.

WHY UPPER EYELID SURGERY?

  • The natural contour of the upper eyelid is restored
  • Excess skin that is impairing vision – is removed
  • Fatty deposits that cause upper eyelid puffiness are eliminated
  • Rejuvenates the upper face which restores a vibrant, youthful appearance
  • Is commonly done in tandem with other anti-aging procedure

UPPER EYELID/BLEPHAROPLASTY PROCEDURE:
Dr. Yeh typically uses local anesthesia with or without sedation to keep you comfortable during your surgery. Small, well hidden incisions are made in the crease of the upper eyelid and Dr. Yeh works through these to reposition fat, tighten muscles and remove excess skin if needed. This achieves a natural, youthful upper eyelid contour. Dr. Yeh may recommend cold compresses to help minimize and reduce swelling.
