The eyes can be one of the most striking facial features—when they appear bright and alert. Unfortunately, they are also among the first areas to show signs of aging. The delicate skin of the eyelids can sag, wrinkle, and droop, creating a tired or older appearance. Blepharoplasty, or eyelid lift surgery, rejuvenates the upper eyelids to restore a refreshed, youthful look. At Eden Plastic Surgery Institute in Miami, Florida, we offer advanced blepharoplasty procedures to help patients achieve naturally revitalized eyes.

Upper Eyelid Lift Surgery
Upper blepharoplasty is one of the most sought-after facial cosmetic surgeries because of its ability to dramatically enhance the eyes while preserving a natural appearance. Over time, the upper eyelid skin stretches and loses collagen and elastin, causing it to sag and obscure the natural eyelid crease. Excess skin and fatty tissue can create a hooded effect, making the eyes appear tired or heavy. Women often notice it becomes difficult to apply eyeshadow or eyeliner due to the loose skin.
During an upper eyelid lift, a small incision is made in the natural crease of the upper eyelid to remove excess skin and fat and to gently tighten the remaining tissue. This creates a smoother, firmer upper eyelid with fewer wrinkles and no droopy skin, revealing eyes that look youthful, rested, and vibrant.
Is Blepharoplasty Right for You?
If your eyes look sleepy, tired, or have sagging, wrinkled upper eyelid skin, blepharoplasty may be an ideal option to refresh your appearance. Candidates are typically healthy, non-smokers who have drooping upper eyelids and realistic expectations. Many patients combine eyelid lift surgery with other facial procedures such as a brow lift or facelift for more comprehensive rejuvenation. During your consultation, Dr. Charafeddine will evaluate your facial structure and discuss which treatments can best achieve your goals.
