Blepharoplasty
The eyes are the most prone to developing aging signs, influenced by factors like genetics, environment, and age. Crepey skin, discoloration, and puffiness can commonly develop on the upper and lower eyelids. Blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery is an effective plastic surgery procedure for improving the appearance of the eyes and addressing functional concerns. Under the expertise of our skilled plastic surgeons at bodySCULPT®, individuals seeking blepharoplasty in Manhattan can anticipate a comprehensive facial transformation, resulting in heightened vitality and enhanced natural beauty.
The procedure provides both aesthetic and functional benefits such as –
- Reduces the appearance of tired eyes
- Improves eyelid crease
- Corrects puffiness and bags under the eyes
- Enhances facial symmetry
- Improves vision
- Creates tighter eyelid contour
In severe cases, drooping upper eyelids can obstruct the upper field of vision. Upper and lower eyelid surgery can address this problem, leading to a noticeable improvement in vision.
