Upper eyelid surgery

This patient, a 72-year-old woman, sought elective eyelid surgery to address excess upper eyelid skin that made her appear tired and less refreshed than she felt. She desired a subtle change that would restore a more youthful, energetic look while maintaining her natural features. Her goals were to improve her overall facial appearance and to feel more confident in daily activities.

The procedure performed was an upper blepharoplasty, commonly referred to as eyelid surgery. This approach removes redundant skin from the upper eyelids, helping open the eyes and produce a refreshed look. The patient’s recovery process was smooth, and she quickly noticed a brighter, more rested appearance. She expressed satisfaction with the outcome, reporting that friends and family commented on her rejuvenated look without immediately knowing she had surgery.
