What is blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to improve the appearance of the eyelids by removing excess skin and possibly fat and tightening the remaining skin around the eyes. Our blepharoplasty in Palm Beach can be performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both, depending on the patient’s aesthetic goals.

Upper eyelid surgery

Upper eyelid surgery, or upper blepharoplasty, is a specialized procedure to address sagging, puffiness, or excess skin on the upper eyelids.

At Palm Beach Plastic Surgery Institute, Dr. Edward H. Davidson and his experienced team prioritize creating a refreshed and natural appearance while ensuring patient safety and satisfaction.

The procedure involves making precise incisions along the natural creases of the upper eyelids, allowing for the removal or repositioning of fat, tightening of muscles, and removal of excess skin. Our meticulous approach ensures minimal scarring and a smoother recovery process.

Benefits of upper eyelid surgery

  • Rejuvenated look: Reduces sagging and puffiness, creating a more alert appearance.
  • Improved vision: For some patients, removing excess skin allows for peripheral vision.
  • Minimal downtime: Most patients can resume normal activities within a week, with noticeable results within a few weeks.

Recovery after upper eyelid surgery

Our upper eyelid surgery in West Palm Beach is typically performed as outpatient surgery, with patients going home the same day. It can even be performed under local anesthetic, sedation or general anesthetic. Patients can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which generally subside within a week. Discomfort can be managed with prescribed pain medications. Dr. Davidson and his team provide detailed aftercare instructions and are committed to supporting you throughout the recovery process to ensure a smooth and comfortable healing journey.

Lower eyelid surgery

Lower eyelid surgery, or lower blepharoplasty, addresses under-eye bags, puffiness, and excess skin contributing to a tired appearance. Dr. Davidson and his team at Palm Beach Plastic Surgery Institute is dedicated to revitalizing the under-eye area while ensuring a safe and comfortable patient experience.

The lower eyelid surgery procedure

This procedure may involve removing or redistributing excess fat and skin from the lower eyelid area. The incisions are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring, either just below the lower lash line or inside the lower eyelid.

Benefits of lower eyelid surgery

  • Reduced under-eye bags: This creates a smoother, more youthful under-eye area.
  • Brighter appearance: Helps eliminate shadows and puffiness for a brighter look.
  • Tailored to your unique condition: The procedure is customized based on the patient’s unique anatomy and aesthetic goals.
