Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty) In Beverly Hills

(310) 970-2940 | Beverly Hills | Miami

The eyes are one of the most distinctive physical characteristics on a person’s face. As we age, our skin begins to thin and droopy eyelids become our most noticeable facial feature.

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid lift, can restore lost skin elasticity and repair droopy eyelids by removing excess skin, muscle, and fat. Dr. Hadeed specializes in facial procedures. By customizing each procedure to the individual needs and desired results of each patient, Dr. Hadeed can give his patients beautiful, long-lasting results.

What Can Eyelid Lift Surgery Do?

Remove Excess Skin And Fat

Excess skin and fat near the upper and lower eyelids can make you appear tired and sad all the time. Eyelid surgery removes the excess skin and fat that makes your eyes droop. It can lessen the appearance of undereye bags and puffy eyes.

Improve Side Vision

A consequence of saggy eyelids is that your vision will suffer. Severely sagging skin can impair your side vision. Eyelid surgery can remove the excess skin that is interfering with your vision and reveal brighter, more vibrant eyes.

Eyelid lift surgery is an individualized procedure, so Dr. Hadeed will assess your goals and expectations to develop your surgical plan. It is at this meeting where he will discuss the best eyelid lift technique for you. Eyelid lift surgery is performed using general anesthesia or intravenous sedation. Dr. Hadeed will discuss which option is right for you at your consultation.

How Is Eyelid Lift Surgery Performed?

Eyelid Lift Techniques

With Dr. Hadeed’s guidance, you will be able to customize your eyelid lift surgery. Your surgical plan may include upper blepharoplasty, lower blepharoplasty, or a combination of facial cosmetic procedures.

Upper Blepharoplasty

When the upper eyelids begin to sag, your vision may be obscured, and you will likely look older than you are. The upper blepharoplasty technique requires an incision in the natural upper eyelid crease. Then, excess skin and fat are removed, and the underlying muscles are tightened.

Lower Blepharoplasty

When the lower eyelids begin to sag, the skin around the eye can look puffy, and eye bags form. The lower blepharoplasty technique requires an incision below the lower lash line. Then, the excess fat is removed, muscles are tightened, and fat is redistributed as needed.

Have More Concerns About Eyelid Lift Surgery?

Recovery

After eyelid lift surgery, it is common to have itchy and dry eyes. Bruising and swelling are also normal side effects after surgery. Cold compresses and ointments will help ease the discomfort and swelling. Strenuous activities should be avoided for at least two to three weeks. Dr. Hadeed will provide you with post-operative instructions following your procedure.

Scars

The scars that develop after eyelid lift surgery will be hidden in the eyelid creases or lower lash line. Any potential scarring that may be noticeable can be concealed by makeup. All scarring fades over time.

Cost

The price of eyelid lift surgery will depend on the techniques used, anesthesia fees, surgical fees, facility fees, and added costs of any combination procedures.

Pain

Bruising, swelling, and discomfort are common after eyelid lift surgery. If the pain persists, Dr. Hadeed can prescribe pain medication to ease any discomfort.

Results

Your results will become noticeable once the swelling and bruising subside. You will feel and look more alert, rejuvenated, and vibrant after eyelid lift surgery.
