Unveil a Brighter You with Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, corrects the shape and proportion of upper and lower eyelids to deliver a more rested and youthful look. Dr. Neena Will performs precise surgical techniques to alleviate hooded appearances and reduce under-eye puffiness.

Are You a Good Candidate for Blepharoplasty?

Ideal candidates for eyelid surgery in Burr Ridge have:

• Loose, sagging upper eyelids
• Excess skin under the eyes
• Puffiness or tired-looking eyes
• Good overall health
• Realistic expectations

Signs of Aging in Eyelids

Upper Lid Aging

As upper lids age, fatty deposits may appear, causing a puffy or tired appearance. Skin loses elasticity, and gravity causes skin to gather, potentially obstructing vision.

Lower Lid Aging

Lower lid aging can result in wrinkled skin, dark under-eye bags, and drooping that makes eyes look weary and aged.

Dr. Will performs eyelid surgery in the Naperville and Burr Ridge area offices under local anesthesia. The technique varies depending on whether upper or lower eyelids are being treated, with careful attention to facial structure and symmetry.

Recovery Expectations

Patients can expect:

• 5-7 days of home recovery
