What is Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)?
Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty) is a type of plastic surgery that removes
excess skin and tissue from the eyelids.
Eyelid surgery is generally requested because of a tired
appearance from drooping of the eyelids or excessive puffiness. This is commonly
the first requested procedure for individuals seeking to improve their
appearance. Dr. Felice believes that surgery on the eyelids should create the
appearance of looking invigorated. The incisions should be inconspicuous and the
look very natural. He has performed the procedure in individuals from age 32-75.
Both upper and lower eyelids can be modified at the same time, but many times
only upper or lower eyelids require surgical intervention.
