Why Eyelid Surgery is the Most Popular Facial Plastic Surgery Procedure

By Posted on behalf of John J.W. Lee, MD, FACS

At our Philadelphia offices, Dr. John Lee focuses his plastic surgery practice on blepharoplasty, the surgical enhancement of your eyelids. Blepharoplasty is the most popular facial plastic surgery procedure because it has such a dramatic effect on your appearance.

The first thing you notice about someone is their eyes. With blepharoplasty, you can have a relatively simple procedure with huge returns. Reshaping the area around your eyes can brighten your appearance and give you a younger, healthier and more vibrant look.

This plastic surgery can enhance both your upper and lower eyelids. Upper eyelid surgery will correct drooping eyelids. Dr. Lee will make a well-hidden incision in your eyelid crease to remove excess skin and fat. With years of experience and thousands of these surgeries performed, Dr. Lee is very confident and knows exactly how much skin to remove to achieve the optimal result while not compromising the eyelids function.

In lower eyelid surgery, Dr. Lee will make an incision inside the eyelids to remove the excess fat that is causing the puffy appearance. Then an incision is made at the crows feet area and the skin is pulled laterally to the side. When the excess skin is removed, an appearance of tighter skin is achieved.
