BLEPHAROPLASTY IN ATLANTA, GA
What is Blepharoplasty?
A person's eyes are a unique feature that deserves to be seen, but sometimes excess skin above or under the eyes can create an unflattering facial appearance. Board-certified otolaryngologist/facial plastic surgeon Dr. B. Terry Seymour offers blepharoplasty (also known as eyelid surgery) to lift and tighten the upper or lower eyelid, creating a younger and awakened facial appearance. Countless men and women receive eyelid surgery at ENT Facial Plastics and Sleep Disorder Center to correct sagging skin, leading to improved function and appearance. Whether upper or lower, eyelid surgery creates a softer, younger appearance and can produce natural yet noticeable improvements. If you are interested in refreshing your eyes with an eye lift, contact either our Atlanta or Lithonia, GA location to schedule a consultation.
What Can I Expect from My Blepharoplasty?
Depending on the nature of your blepharoplasty, some form of anesthesia will be provided. Your treatment may be done on the top eyelid by itself, under or on the bottom eyelid, or a combination of both eyelids, depending on your particular needs.
-
Upper
Upper blepharoplasty is performed to reduce the hanging skin that droops over the eye to produce a more awakened and appealing look. -
Lower
Lower eyelid surgery is performed to improve puffy skin under the lower eyelid. In most cases, an incision is placed below the lash line and the skin is delicately lifted to produce a softer, flatter look.
Eyelid surgery can take up to two hours based on whether both eyes or one is treated. After surgery, you should rest for about a week. Cold compresses can assist in reducing discomfort, swelling, and bruising. The outcomes from blepharoplasty may last years, but while they are lasting, aging does not stop. To continue to enhance your surgical outcomes, facial rejuvenation treatments at ENT Facial Plastics and Sleep Disorder Center, such as fillers, peels, and lasers, can be paired to create a fresh appearance.
