The lower eyelid surgery incision is created just along the lash line and is also naturally concealed. An inner incision within the lower eyelid may be created in order to remove excess fat and skin, and this incision is completely hidden.

Non-invasive treatments like Botox for instance, relaxes the muscles around your eyes in the frown and crow’s feet areas and slightly elevated the outer brows, and this may provide some improvement to your eyes. Injectable treatments such as Juvéderm or Restylane fillers may be used to fill under eye hollows and reduce dark shadows.
However, blepharoplasty is still the best and only treatment to tighten the delicate skin on the upper eyelids, remove excess skin, or lift an eyelid that partially covers the eyes, causing vision problems.
Eyelid surgery helps to reverse signs of aging and can improve vision when the surgeon removes excess skin from the upper eyelids. Blepharoplasty can also refresh your eyes with outstanding, long-lasting results that improve the eye area for years. However, the surgery will not prevent future aging.
