Baggy, heavy, aged eyelids can cause you to look older and tired—even when you don’t feel it. Common complaints include excess upper eyelid skin, “bags” under the eyes, and skin wrinkles at the sides of the eyes. An eyelift, or blepharoplasty, is a procedure that addresses the anatomical issues that contribute to that tired and aged look.
An upper eyelid lift (upper blepharoplasty) or lower eyelid lift (lower blepharoplasty) procedure can be performed alone, together, or with other treatments (face/neck lifts) depending on your individual needs and aesthetic goals. Upper eyelid lifts are typically performed in the office. Dr. Lefkowitz utilizes a variety of techniques for rejuvenation around the eyes, ranging from injectable treatments like Botox® and fat grafting, to laser/chemical peel resurfacing, as well as surgical skin removal and fat repositioning.
