The eyes are one of the most noticeable features of our face. Over time, due to aging, genetic factors, gravity, and environmental factors, the upper eyelids can sag, become loose, and accumulate excess skin. This can give a person a tired, sad, or older appearance.
Upper eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) can significantly rejuvenate the appearance and eliminate sagging that narrows the field of vision.
