They say that eyes are the windows to the soul and with Blepharoplasty, that couldn’t be truer. I know this sounds like a long and difficult thing but this is a type of surgery that repairs droopy eyelids; maybe even excess skin. As you age, your eyelids lose elasticity, which causes the upper lids to droop. This is where the procedure comes in. While it is mainly a cosmetic thing, some patients have even said that it can be helpful in improving vision.
At this point some of you may be wondering why this surgery is even done. As you get older, you want to still look as young as some of you may feel. You don’t want to let age ruin the confidence you once had. This is mainly why a lot of people get it. Sometimes, the sagging skin can also get in the way of your vision so older people will use it to correct their vision.
Before going into any surgery, it’s important that you know the risks that it might bring. This is surgery on the eyes so there are multiple risks that can come along with it like:
