Under Eye Bags - Blepharoplasty for Baggy Eyelids (eyelid tightening, eyelid lift)

Explore eyelid surgery for bags under eyes.

Severe eyelid bags - festoons

This patient did not like how tired and sad she looked with her sagging tissues about the eyes. As facial skin sags about the face and eyelids, severe bags may form. Blepharoplasty eyelid surgery can lift sagging tissues into more youthful proportions. It can be part of a more general facial rejuvenation sculpture or done alone. As in this case, compromise surgery can limit the degree of the operation and not address other facial aging features.

Pictures before blepharoplasty for under eye bags and upper baggy eyelids.	Pictures 1 year 1 month after blepharoplasty for under eye bags and upper baggy eyelids.

Notice before surgery, the skin hangs down over the upper eyelids resting on the eyelashes and the under eye bags. After surgery the upper eyelid fold is again visible and the lower lid tone is more natural. The eyes no longer look tired or sad.

With the eyelids gently closed, there is still loose skin of the upper lids before blepharoplasty surgery.
