Eyelid surgery can correct the drooping upper eyelid and puffiness below the eyes,which makes a person looks older and more tired than actually is. This procedure is called blepharoplasty.
Essentially, blepharoplasty is used to remove the fat as well as the excess skin and muscle on the upper and lower eyelid.
The above surgery is usually performed as a"outpatient" surgery and it is done under local anesthesia.
The procedure takes anything from one to three hours and the patient is conscious all the time.
