Laser Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)

Laser blepharoplasty is a variation of eyelid surgery. Laser eyelid surgery is an exciting new improvement upon upper eyelid surgery and lower eyelid surgery that is being used more and more frequently. The goal of laser blepharoplasty is to bring about a fresh, rejuvenated appearance by reducing or even eliminating saggy, puffy skin around the eyes. The removal of such an aesthetically unpleasant feature greatly reduces the evidence of fatigue and age that may have compounded over time, helping to make this procedure particularly sought-after.

About the Procedure

Laser Eyelid Surgery takes from one to three hours depending upon complexity. The patient is put on a combination of local anesthesia and a sedative. There is no incision by knife or scalpel as the incision is usually made under the eyelid by a precise laser beam. Excess fat, skin and tissue is removed through the incision. There is minimal bleeding reducing risks in recovery.
