Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, can return your drooping, puffy eyelids to a more youthful appearance and improve others' impression of you. Eyelid surgery is a good procedure for many people and can be used in combination with other facial procedures.
Eyelid surgery may involve either general anesthesia or local anesthesia combined with a sedative. Incisions are typically made along the lower lash line and/or along the natural creases of the upper lids to ensure any scarring is virtually undetectable.
Blepharoplasty usually takes one to three hours, depending on the extent of the surgery.
Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure performed to remove excess skin around your eyes. Dr. Baron offers eyelid surgery for both upper and lower lids.
In some cases, facelift results can be enhanced with eyelid surgery to address signs of aging in the upper face.
For upper-eyelid surgery, your surgeon will place the incisions in the upper-eyelid fold. For lower-eyelid surgery, your surgeon will have two incision options: traditional and transconjunctival.
Other procedures that are commonly combined with blepharoplasty include facelift , microdermabrasion , and IPL laser resurfacing .
Eyelid surgery can be performed under local anesthesia, which numbs the area around your eyes, along with oral or intravenous sedatives.
Eyelid surgery may also be used to correct ptosis, a drooping eyelid condition caused by poor muscle tone or nerve damage that can cause the eyelid to hang very low and block vision.
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure often used for cosmetic and reconstructive purposes. It involves removing excess skin, muscle, and fat from the upper or lower eyelids, which can help improve the eyes' appearance and reduce puffiness or bags under the eyes.
The incisions made during blepharoplasty are typically tiny and well-concealed, resulting in minimal scarring.
Blepharoplasty generally runs $3,200–$7,500 per procedure, and each Marietta clinic sets its own price. The biggest variables are the provider's experience level and the specific device or product used. Newer technology and senior injectors price at the upper end. Pricing is quoted in US dollars (USD). Request a consultation from any of our listed Marietta clinics for a personalized quote.
Results vary by patient, but most Marietta providers report 6–18 months of sustained benefit from a full Blepharoplasty series.
Most patients wait 24 hours before applying makeup to avoid irritation on freshly-treated skin.
Pull the skin under your eye gently downward and outward while looking in a mirror. If the darkness or shadow disappears, you are dealing with a hollow or a contour issue, which filler can often address. If a bulge remains or the skin itself is loose and crepey, that is tissue, and only surgery removes tissue. Upper lids follow the same logic: if skin rests on your lashes or folds over the crease, no injectable will lift it meaningfully.
Sometimes, for upper eyelids only, and only when the hooding is severe enough to obstruct vision. That requires a documented visual field test showing the obstruction, performed by an ophthalmologist or optometrist. Lower blepharoplasty is considered cosmetic in essentially all cases. Ask the surgeon's office to run the insurance verification before you assume either way, because the answer varies by carrier and by how much field loss the test shows.
Upper blepharoplasty results typically hold for 10 to 15 years, and many patients never need a revision. Lower blepharoplasty is often effectively permanent for the fat that was removed, since those fat pads do not regrow. What continues is normal aging of the surrounding skin, which is why some patients pair surgery with resurfacing or continue with skincare afterward.
Temporary dry eye is the most common complaint and usually resolves within weeks. Less common issues include asymmetry between the two sides, visible scarring in patients prone to it, and in lower-lid surgery, a pulled-down appearance to the lid margin called ectropion, which is uncommon in experienced hands but is the main reason lower blepharoplasty rewards surgeon selection. Serious complications affecting vision are rare. Discuss your specific risk factors, including dry eye history and thyroid conditions, at consultation.
Both plastic surgeons certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and oculoplastic surgeons, who are ophthalmologists with additional fellowship training in eyelid and orbital surgery, perform this operation regularly. For lower-lid work in particular, oculoplastic training is a genuine advantage worth asking about. Either way, confirm the certification directly rather than relying on a website description.
