Blepharoplasty

With aging and loss of elasticity, your eyelids become saggy and develop bags. This creates a tired, aged look. This condition can be easily corrected and your youthful, fresh appearance restored with blepharoplasty procedure offered at Houston Plastic and Craniofacial Surgery.

Eyelid surgery or blepharoplasty works by removing excess skin, muscle and fat from the upper and lower eyelids. Plastic surgeons at Houston Plastic and Craniofacial Surgery, Dr Sean Boutros and Dr Jason Hall combine their experience and expertise to provide a significant improvement in your eyelid appearance safely and effectively. Both the surgeons are highly specialized in providing lower eyelid and upper eyelid blepharoplasty.

What the Lower Blepharoplasty Procedure Involves

• Removal of excess skin, muscle, and fat
• Repositioning of the corner of the eye or canthopexy
• Repositioning of the entire lower eyelid
• Lateral tarsal strip eyelid repositioning
• Addressing the tear trough, including fat tear trough ablation
• Lower eyelid fat sliding procedures

Along with the fatty tissue that appears as puffiness, the excess skin is removed in the case of upper eyelids. Through upper eyelid surgery, corrugator hyperactivity or glabellar frown lines can be improved upon considerably. To reposition the eyebrow, browpexy procedure is often performed in conjunction with this.

Dr. Boutros and Dr Hall will address not only your eyelids, but your entire face, as the eyelids are part of the larger unit. After reviewing your condition thoroughly, they will determine if you would benefit from cosmetic eyelid surgery.
