Cosmetic eye surgery (blepharoplasty) is one of the most commonly performed cosmetic surgery done on the eye lids. It is a safe and effective aesthetic treatment that can help rejuvenate appearance. Blepharoplasty deals with the shape of the upper and lower eye lid.
Upper eyelid blepharoplasty focuses on the region between the eyebrow and the eyelashes while lower eyelid blepharoplasty focuses on the area between the eyelashes and the cheek.
This procedure works on the removal of excess skin and muscle from these areas and either reduces or repositions the underlying fat to a more youthful configuration.
