Blepharoplasty Mclean, VA
Brighten Your Gaze
The eyes are one of the most defining features of the face, but sagging skin, excess eyelid skin, and puffiness can create a tired or aged appearance. Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, refreshes the eyes by addressing droopy eyelids, lower eyelid fat, and under-eye bags. This procedure not only helps to improve the appearance of the eyes but can also enhance vision by lifting sagging upper eyelids.
Serving patients from McLean, VA, and beyond, our cosmetic surgeons specialize in upper and lower eyelid surgery, using advanced surgical techniques to create smooth contours that enhance your features. Whether you want to restore youthful, lifted upper lids or smooth the lower lids for a refreshed look, we personalize every procedure to fit your unique needs.
Reflect Your Inner Vibrance
Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a surgical intervention that removes excess skin, tightens eyelid skin, and repositions or removes orbital fat to improve the appearance of the upper and lower eyelids.
For enhanced results, eyelid surgery is often combined with a brow lift or skin resurfacing to rejuvenate the entire eye area.
Elevate Your Look with Precision & Expertise
Blepharoplasty is an outpatient procedure performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia. Patients may choose to have cosmetic surgery on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. After surgery, you will rest in a comfortable recovery area before returning home the same day.
For upper eyelid surgery, a discreet incision is placed along the natural crease of the eyelid. Your surgeon will remove excess fat, tighten skin, and close the surgical site with fine sutures. Once healed, the incision blends into the eyelid’s natural fold.
For lower blepharoplasty, a transconjunctival incision is made inside the inner surface of the lower lids to access orbital fat. This technique allows your surgeon to reposition fat or remove excess fat without external scarring. In cases with sagging skin, a small, discreet incision just beneath the lashes may be used to refine the natural contour.
