Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty) in Charleston, SC

Understanding Blepharoplasty

The eyes are a critical feature that reflects aging, with delicate eyelid skin loosening over time. Blepharoplasty rejuvenates sagging, puffy, or tired-looking eyes by strategically removing excess fat and skin from upper and lower eyelids.

Comprehensive Blepharoplasty Benefits

• Removes excess fat from the eye area
• Tightens loose, sagging skin
• Enhances upper eyelid contours
• Reduces puffiness and under-eye bags
• Minimizes signs of aging and fatigue

Procedure Overview

Blepharoplasty at Crantford Costa Plastic Surgery is a precise surgical procedure performed in approximately 45 minutes. Surgeons make inconspicuous incisions within natural eyelid creases, allowing strategic removal and repositioning of fat deposits while tightening underlying muscles.

Upper vs. Lower Eyelid Techniques

Depending on patient needs, surgeons can perform upper, lower, or combined eyelid surgery. Upper lid procedures focus on lifting drooping skin, while lower lid techniques address under-eye concerns through carefully placed incisions.

Ideal Candidates for Eyelid Surgery

Candidates typically include healthy individuals experiencing:

• Excessive upper eyelid skin
• Impaired peripheral vision
• Persistent under-eye bags
• Genetic predisposition to early aging

Recovery and Results

Most patients resume normal activities within 7-10 days. Full results emerge gradually, with final outcomes visible in several months. Patients can expect a more youthful, refreshed appearance that can make them look 5-10 years younger.

Complementary Procedures

Blepharoplasty pairs effectively with other facial rejuvenation treatments like brow lifts, facelifts, and non-surgical options such as Botox and dermal fillers.
