What Does Eyelid Surgery Achieve?
Blepharoplasty restores a more youthful, lively, and confident appearance, whether your concerns are due to aging or inherited traits.
Dr. Lopes carefully evaluates each patient’s concerns and develops a plan that may involve upper eyelid surgery, lower eyelid surgery, or both. She frequently helps men and women with:
- Excess or loose skin on the upper eyelids that may obscure the natural eyelid crease or even impair vision
- Puffy upper eyelids that create a tired or heavy look
- Fine wrinkles or crepey skin around the eyelids
- Drooping lower lids that expose the white below the iris
- Bags and dark circles under the eyes that are resistant to creams or other treatments
By tailoring each surgery to the patient’s unique needs, Dr. Lopes creates results that look natural, refreshed, and harmonious with the rest of the face.
Request Your ConsultationThe Benefits of Eyelid Surgery
Besides enhancing your appearance, eyelid surgery offers other less tangible benefits, including long-lasting results and a boost in confidence. Even though cosmetic surgery doesn’t stop the aging process, the results of eyelid surgery last for years. This is especially true for younger patients addressing hereditary traits.
By enhancing one of the most prominent features of your face, eyelid surgery can empower you to face the world with a renewed sense of self-assurance.
Many people also choose to pair eyelid surgery with other facial rejuvenation procedures, such as a facelift or neck lift, to achieve balanced rejuvenation.

Who Is a Candidate for Eyelid Surgery?
Aesthetic eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, is a transformative procedure that addresses a variety of concerns and is suitable for adults of all ages. You may be a good candidate for this procedure if you identify with one or more of the following conditions:
- Obscured Upper Eyelids: If excess skin is covering the natural fold of your upper eyelids, eyelid surgery can restore a more open and youthful appearance.
- Vision Impairment due to Loose Skin: Hanging skin from the upper eyelids can sometimes impair vision, and this procedure can remove the obstruction.
- Tired-Looking Eyes: A puffy appearance to the upper eyelids can make your eyes look fatigued; eyelid surgery can correct this, unveiling a more vibrant gaze.
- Fine Wrinkles and Excess Skin on Lower Eyelids: This procedure can smooth out excess skin and fine wrinkles on the lower eyelids, enhancing the overall look of your eyes.
- Droopiness and Bags Under the Eyes: If you experience droopiness of the lower eyelids that shows white below the iris or have bags and dark circles under your eyes, Dr. Lopes’ expertise can provide an effective solution.
Whether your concerns are due to aging or inherited traits, and whether you’re in your 20s, 30s, or older, Dr. Lopes’ personalized approach to blepharoplasty can be tailored to fit your unique needs.
For some patients, she may recommend combining eyelid surgery with a brow lift to elevate a heavy or sagging brow and further open up the eye area. During your consultation, Dr. Lopes will evaluate whether combining these procedures could help you achieve a more harmonious, refreshed look.
