Sagging, drooping eyelids can make you appear fatigued, disinterested, or lethargic, and can even cause visual field impairment in some cases. If you are tired of looking older than you feel, blepharoplasty, commonly known as eyelid surgery or an eyelid lift, can provide a long-lasting way to banish the bags and decrease eyelid hooding.
Blepharoplasty restores the eyes to a more youthful-looking state by addressing loose skin, weakened muscles and excess fat. Dr. Kobienia makes incisions along the natural creases of the eyelids so that scars are practically invisible. In most cases, patients are able to return to their everyday routines within 1 to 2 weeks of their blepharoplasty.
In most cases, blepharoplasty is considered an elective cosmetic procedure and is therefore not covered by insurance. However, patients who undergo eyelid surgery to correct vision impairment may find that some or all of the procedure is covered by their insurance plans.
