Facial Plastic Surgeon / Procedures / Face / Eyelid Surgery
Looking to rejuvenate tired or aging eyes? Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Dino Elyassnia offers expertly tailored eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) to restore a more youthful, rested appearance while preserving your unique features. Whether you're addressing sagging upper lids, under-eye bags, or seeking subtle enhancement, this refined procedure offers both cosmetic and functional benefits.
Eyelid surgery can improve the appearance and function of the eyes. Benefits include:
Removes excess skin and fat from the upper eyelids to open up the eyes and lift a heavy or tired appearance. Can also improve vision in cases where skin droops over the lashes.
Targets puffiness, loose skin, and wrinkles under the eyes for a smoother, more refreshed look. Fat repositioning may be used for a natural contour.
Creates a defined upper eyelid crease while preserving ethnic identity and respecting natural anatomy.
Eyelid surgery may be performed alone or alongside procedures like a brow lift, ptosis correction, or fat grafting to enhance overall harmony and address deeper structural concerns.
Upper eyelids: A discreet incision in the natural crease removes or adjusts skin and fat.
Lower eyelids: Incision is made either inside the lid or just below the lashes to reposition or remove fat.
Anesthesia: Performed under local anesthesia with light sedation or in an accredited surgical center, based on your plan.
Dr. Elyassnia takes a conservative, precision-based approach to deliver natural, age-appropriate results without looking "overdone."
While both procedures rejuvenate the eye area, eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) and brow lift target different concerns. Eyelid surgery focuses on removing excess skin, fat, and puffiness from the upper or lower eyelids, addressing drooping eyelids and under-eye bags for a more alert appearance. A brow lift, on the other hand, elevates sagging brows, smooths forehead wrinkles, and softens frown lines. In many cases, these procedures can be combined for more comprehensive facial rejuvenation. During your consultation, Dr. Elyassnia will help determine which approach—or combination—is best suited to your unique anatomy and aesthetic goals.
Ideal candidates are in good health and bothered by sagging eyelids, puffiness, or impaired vision due to eyelid skin. During your consultation, Dr. Elyassnia will assess your goals, eyelid anatomy, and even screen for dry eye symptoms or ptosis to ensure optimal safety and outcomes.
Dr. Elyassnia thoroughly evaluates your medical and eye health history to reduce risks and ensure the safest, most effective outcome.
