What Does A Blepharoplasty Do?

Blepharoplasty is a plastic surgical procedure on either the upper or lower eyelids or sometimes both. Eyelid lift surgeries can either have aesthetic benefits or even help repair visual impairments caused by drooping or excessively skinned eyelids. There is a restorative aspect to a blepharoplasty with the intention of returning you to a more youthful and ‘awake’ appearance, helping remove that baggy eye look. Something to remember is that blepharoplasty surgeries may be covered by insurance if an eyelid lift can help improve your vision! Be sure to speak to both your insurance and the team at Rizzuto Eyelid and Facial Plastic Surgery to determine how a blepharoplasty can help you!

Who Is A Good Candidate For Blepharoplasty?

If you currently do not have any ongoing health issues that can complicate either the procedure or the recovery process, if your eye health is good, if you are a nonsmoker, and if you have realistic goals and expectations then you may be a good candidate. To better determine if eyelid lift surgery is for you, be sure to come in for a consultation!
