Often called Eyelid Lift, it's not skin surgery, but a complex surgery that can yield very pleasant results. It's one of the first surgeries performed on individuals as they get older, or at times even on younger people, who by family trait tend to have accumulated fat around the eyes.
Not only, is the skin addressed, since it also involves the muscle and fat under the skin.
Upper lids tend to droop like a curtain that can reach the eyelashes and can even obstruct field of vision. In upper eyelid surgery, the incision is concealed in the natural crease created when the eye is open. The characteristics of the skin allow the scar to fully (99%) disappear. Through this incision, skin and muscle are trimmed and excess fat is removed. The remaining muscle is then reconstructed and internally reattached.

In lower eyelid surgery, the incision is made along the lash line, like a permanent eyeliner, leaving absolutely no visible scar. The skin is lifted away, the muscle readjusted, fat pockets are removed and then the skin is tractioned outward to make it firmer and smoother without altering the eyelid’s shape or function. This is a painless surgery.
