Understanding Upper Eyelid Surgery in Reno

How the eyelids frame the eyes can significantly impact facial appearance. Aged, wrinkled, or drooping eyelids can create a tired look that doesn't reflect one's true energy. Nevada Eye Plastic Surgery specializes in upper blepharoplasty, allowing patients to restore and enhance their features with a refreshed appearance.

What is Upper Blepharoplasty?

Upper blepharoplasty, commonly known as upper eyelid surgery, addresses cosmetic concerns with one or both upper eyelids. The procedure helps patients overcome aesthetic challenges caused by aging, genetics, or other factors.

Core Issues Addressed by Upper Blepharoplasty

Excess eyelid skin
Wrinkles and fine lines
Droopy upper eyelid
Eyelid asymmetry
Tired, fatigued appearance

Key Benefits of the Procedure

Board-certified surgeon Dr. Marcus J. Ko, a Harvard Medical School graduate, ensures optimal results through personalized surgical techniques. Upper blepharoplasty offers patients multiple advantages:

Long-lasting aesthetic improvements
Refreshed, youthful appearance
Enhanced facial balance
Minimal visible scarring
Customized procedural approach

Procedure Overview

Each blepharoplasty procedure is tailored to individual patient needs. Typically, the process involves administering anesthesia, creating precise incisions, removing excess skin, and repositioning tissues. The entire procedure usually takes approximately two hours, with options for combining complementary treatments.

Recovery and Results

Initial recovery takes 1-2 weeks, with patients gradually returning to normal activities. While changes are immediate, final results become fully apparent after swelling subsides, typically within a few months. Maintaining results requires minimizing sun exposure and following a healthy lifestyle.

Personalized Surgical Approach

Dr. Ko's expertise as an oculofacial surgeon allows for refined, nuanced surgical techniques. By understanding complex facial structures, he can create natural-looking results that complement individual patient anatomy.
