Orange County Eyelid Surgery
The appearance of your eyes is critical to how people perceive your age. If you have a youthful face, but your eyes look tired or baggy, it will make you appear much older. On the other hand, if you have some signs of aging, but the area showcasing your eyes looks firm, you will appear more youthful. At Dr. Graham Kemsley's office in Irvine, Orange County, eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) is an excellent option for enhancing the overall eye appearance.
As we get older, looseness of the skin creates wrinkles on the lower lids and heaviness on the upper lids. We can also experience bagginess under the eyes, which is caused by excess fat pads. All of these things can add to the appearance of aging, and all of these concerns can be addressed through eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, for Orange County men and women.
The Procedure
Eyelid surgery is a common cosmetic procedure that can be used to freshen up the eyes. The procedure involves removing some skin or tightening with a laser peel, and thinning or repositioning fat pads around the eyes. With this procedure there is little discomfort and bruising, most of which subsides within a week after surgery. During your consultation, Dr. Kemsley will closely examine your eyes and recommend whether upper blepharoplasty, lower blepharoplasty, or both procedures are required to achieve your cosmetic goals.
