Are Droopy Upper Eyelids Making People Think You Are Tired?

First impressions are important. Our face and eyes are the first things people notice during regular conversational interactions. Our eyes are also important for non-verbal signals during communication. Excess skin on our upper eyelids conveys a sad and tired look. You live in Beverly Hills, and you are generally a happy and attentive person-so let’s make sure your eyes say the same thing!

Blepharoplasty, also known as cosmetic eyelid surgery and upper eyelid lift, is a great way to rejuvenate your eyes. Eyelid surgery creates a more pleasing frame around the eyes. The result is a more rested, happy, and youthful look-which is exactly the impression you want to create.

Ideal candidates are in good health, and have normal or very well controlled blood pressure. Dr. Dass performs cosmetic upper eyelid blepharoplasty as an outpatient procedure in his Beverly Hills Plastic Surgery center. The scars are well hidden in the natural skin crease of the upper eyelid. Most people have some eyelid asymmetry, and this can be corrected at the same time. The extra fat that creates puffiness in the upper eyelid will also be reduced. The evening after surgery, you will probably want to rest with ice packs on your eyes to minimize the swelling and bruising. The recovery after this type of surgery is not usually painful. You may need to use saline eye drops if you experience irritation and dryness during the postoperative period. Women will usually be able to apply makeup to their upper eyelids after about a week.

Dr. Dass in Beverly Hills may be able to assist you in rejuvenating your eyes with an upper eyelid lift. Schedule an appointment today to talk to Dr. Dass and determine whether cosmetic eyelid surgery is right for you.
