Eyelid Lift Surgery (Blepharoplasty) in Coral Gables, FL

Understanding Blepharoplasty

As individuals age, eyelids often develop a drooping and sagging appearance. Droopy eyelids can negatively impact both aesthetic appearance and vision functionality. Blepharoplasty offers a comprehensive solution to address these concerns through precise surgical techniques.

What is Eyelid Surgery?

Blepharoplasty is a specialized cosmetic surgical procedure designed to remove excess tissue that accumulates on the eyelids due to aging. The surgery involves strategic interventions to restore a more youthful and refreshed eye appearance.

Surgical Approach

Each blepharoplasty procedure begins with anesthesia to ensure patient comfort and safety. Surgeons typically focus on two primary areas:

• Upper Eyelids: Incisions are made along the natural eyelid crease
• Underlying Muscle Tightening: Excess skin is removed or strategically repositioned

Blepharoplasty Techniques

Transconjunctival Incisions

This popular lower eyelid technique minimizes visible scarring by creating incisions inside the eyelid. It effectively reduces under-eye bags and puffiness while maintaining a natural appearance.

Eyelash Line Incisions

By making precise incisions along the lower eyelash line, surgeons can eliminate wrinkles and loose skin. This method allows for muscle tightening and strategic fat removal.

Pinch Blepharoplasty

A minimally invasive approach that involves minimal tissue disruption. While not providing complete lower lid tightening, it offers subtle improvements with reduced surgical intervention.

Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Laser Technique

This advanced method uses laser technology to stimulate collagen production without physical incisions. The process helps reduce wrinkles and improve overall eyelid smoothness.
