Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty) Sydney

Upper eyelids droop when they lose their elasticity and suppleness. This causes the skin and associated forehead skin to loose tension. The result is that the eyebrow drops over the eye socket and sits on top of the upper eyelid. The blepharoplasty surgery is done by making an incision in the crease of the eye to remove excess skin so any scars are hidden in the crease of the eye. Surgical assessments include an examination of the redundant tissues of the forehead and eyelids and an evaluation of the patient’s brow, forehead and condition of the skin based on the person’s gender

The operation is often done in conjunction with a forehead lift to make a person look younger. A forehead lift, which is done through lifting the skin at the hairline, is also sometimes used to help lift sagging skin from the eyelids.
