Procedure & Results
Dr. Sullivan will make an incision along the natural lines and creases of the upper eyelids. This enables her to remove excess skin, fat, and muscle if indicated. The incisions are then closed with very fine sutures. The lower eyelids are usually addressed with injections of filler material into the “tear trough deformity” or shadow area under the eye. A blepharoplasty can take from one to two hours, depending on the complexity of the procedure. Eyelid Surgery is done on an outpatient basis with general or local anesthesia. Because safety is always our first concern, Dr. Kelly Sullivan always works with board-certified anesthesiologists to ensure that your surgery is as safe as possible. Following your surgery, you will be able to rest in the comfort of your own home. You should expect the following results from your Eye Lift surgery by removing excess, puffy, sagging skin and fat deposits. Eyelid Surgery will:
- Create a more energetic, alert, and youthful appearance
- Eliminate the constant “tired” look
- Restore proper visual acuity
- Improve overall appearance and self-image
