Eyelid Lift - Boston South Shore
Eyelid Lift
Blepharoplasty, or an eyelid lift, is the trimming of excess skin and fat (puffiness) of the upper eyelids or the lower eyelids—or both—to achieve a more youthful and rested look. In the video below, Dr. Hamori describes the unique conditions and considerations of the upper eyelid surgery and lower eyelid surgery.
A small change in the eyelids can make a big difference in an overall more youthful appearance.
The surgery takes one to two hours to complete. Allow two weeks for full recovery. Your surgery results are long-lasting.
An eye lift may be coordinated with chemical peels to reduce the appearance of wrinkly skin around the eyes.
UPNEEQ for droopy eyelids
Dr. Hamori and Dr. DiEdwardo may also be able to address your eyelid issues with a once-daily eyedrop developed to treat drooping eyelids. UPNEEQ® (oxymetazoline hydrochloride ophthalmic solution), 0.1% is a prescription eyedrop used to treat low-lying lids (acquired blepharoptosis) in adults.
To learn if you are a candidate for UPNEEQ and to learn how to best address your eyelid concerns, schedule a consultation with Dr. Hamori or Dr. DiEdwardo.
