How is the upper blepharoplasty surgery performed?
An incision is made in the upper eyelid crease and excess skin is removed in a conservative fashion so that patients are still able to close their eyes. If needed, a small strip of the orbicularis occuli muscle can be removed to deepen the crease. There are two diet-resistant fat pads on the upper lids in the orbital septum. A portion of this is also removed to improve the puffiness look on the upper lids.
