Your eyes are usually the first thing that people notice about your appearance. They are often seen as the most important aspect of facial attractiveness. As we go through life, the aging process has its consequence. The skin around our eyes stretches and wrinkles. The medical term for baggy upper or lower lid is dermatochalasis. The upper and lower eyelids become droopy and baggy for many reasons. These include genetic predisposition, sun damage, facial aging with skin changes such as laxity and looseness, gravity, and bulging forward of the fat that normally surrounds the eye. These changes can be corrected with eyelid surgery, Blepharoplasty.

The procedure is usually performed in an office with local anesthesia and lasts 45 minutes to a few hours depending on how much work is done. Incisions are made along the eyelids in inconspicuous places (in the creases of the upper lids, and just below the lashes on the lower lids). The surgeon removes excess tissue through these incisions and then stitches them closed with fine sutures. In the case that no skin needs to be removed, the surgeon will likely perform a transconjunctival blepharoplasty, where the incision is made inside the lower eyelid and there are no visible scars.
