Precision and attention to detail in eyelid surgery - it matters

Eyelid surgery is a delicate operation to remove excess, sagging skin. When performed with skill, the result is a refreshed, more youthful appearance that looks completely natural. Eyelid surgery can be performed on either top or bottom lids, or both.

Achieving a natural, youthful look with eyelid surgery demands extreme precision and attention to detail, which is where Dr. Paul N. Afrooz excels. Dr. Afrooz performs his Miami eyelid surgery on both men and women in South Florida who want to look younger, more vital, and more attractive.

Your custom eye surgery: A younger-looking you. 

Blepharoplasty, commonly called eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic procedure that adjusts the shape of the eyelids and restores a bright, youthful eye appearance. You may be considering eyelid surgery to address saggy, droopy eyelids, or heavy bags beneath your eyes. The procedure involves removing excess saggy skin with an incision made in the eyelid fold. For results that appear natural and refreshed, not wide-eyed, this surgery requires a highly-skilled surgeon such as Dr. Afrooz - one of Miami's top facial plastic surgeons.

Benefits of eyelid surgery

The eyelid skin is very delicate and fine. As the years pass, the skin structure weakens, allowing the skin to stretch and sag. This condition is impossible to hide, and even when using the most expensive eye creams to keep the skin supple, your eyelid skin will eventually begin to sag. Many people take advantage of the ability to restore a more youthful look with eyelid surgery, which has the following benefits:

  • Restores a youthful shape to the eye
  • Removes excess sagging skin
  • Can remove undereye bags
  • Gives you a more open, approachable, youthful look
  • Easy recovery

Types of Eyelid Procedures

What is upper blepharoplasty?

Upper eyelid surgery is a precision procedure in which a small section of eyelid skin is carefully removed to remove the excess skin and restore a more youthful, energetic appearance to the eyes and nearby tissues. The procedure is customized to match the unique condition of the patient, and may involve removing fat lodged in the region, muscle modification or other precision changes to restore a youthful appearance. Dr. Afrooz addresses every upper blepharoplasty procedure with the most advanced surgical techniques, and can resolve hooding, and fine-tuning eye symmetry to achieve a remarkably refreshed, healthy look. 

What is lower blepharoplasty?

Lower eyelid surgery is performed to treat several aesthetic problems visible at the lower eyelids. The procedure is customized to match the condition of the individual, and will vary, patient to patient. Generally, the procedure involves placing an incision just below the lower eyelashes, or within the lower eyelid. Through this incision, excess fat is removed (under-eye bags), or issues such as drooping lower lids corrected by repositioning the muscles.

WHAT IS ASIAN EYELID SURGERY?

Dr. Afrooz specializes in Asian eyelid surgery, a procedure designed for people of Asian descent. In Asian eyelid surgery, a fold is created to make the eyes look wider. Dr. Afrooz uses his skill to provide patients with a safe treatment that results in beautiful eyelids.

AM I A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR EYELID SURGERY?

If you have droopy eyelids that are interfering with your vision, or you are tired of seeing sagging eyelid skin or heavy, undereye bags, you are likely a good candidate for customized eyelid surgery. The procedure can produce a dramatic improvement in your overall facial appearance.

WHAT IS DOUBLE EYELID SURGERY?

Double eyelid surgery is another name for Asian eyelid surgery. A large portion of the Asian population does not have a natural fold in the eyelids. Double eyelid surgery can make the eyelid crease more visible, making it easier to apply makeup, and is a subtle, attractive enhancement. The Asian eyelid is different from eyelids of other ethnicities, so it is vital that the surgeon performing this procedure is experienced in performing double eyelid surgery.

WHAT IS THE COST OF BLEPHAROPLASTY?

The cost of your Miami eyelid surgery will vary from person to person, as each person will require a custom approach. To determine the price will require evaluating your eyes in person during a private consultation. You may need both upper and lower eyelid surgery, or the muscle structure may need tightening to achieve the most natural-looking result. At Paul N. Afrooz, MD, we achieve beautiful results, and looking years younger is well worth the investment.

Reveal your true self.

You may feel energetic, youthful, and vigorous, but your eyes give you a tired, angry, or displeased appearance, even on your best days. When the upper or lower eyelids make you look older than you feel, you can transform your look in a subtle but dramatic way by undergoing a custom eyelid blepharoplasty to reveal the true you – a person who is full of life and youthful energy.
