Atlanta Eyelid Surgery - Eyelid Lift (Blepharoplasty) in Atlanta

Excessive skin or fat developes over or under the eye and can restrict your vision and give you a tired or aged appearance. Hooding of your upper eyelids produces a sleepy demeanor; puffiness of the lower eyelids suggests depression and fatigue. Both conditions contribute to the appearance of premature aging. Eyelid surgery is a simple and effective procedure that can take years off your face.

Surgical correction of the eyelids is designed to impart a bright, rested, and energetic visibility to your eyes, thus enhancing both your appearance and your self-image. Correction of a visual obstruction from hooding of your upper eyelids also improves your daily comfort and safety.

Eyelid lift surgery is accomplished by removing excess tissue and muscle suspension from either your upper or lower eyelids, or re-forming of the eyes’ natural shape. Corners of the eyes can be elevated to achieve an elegant look, expression muscles can be strengthened to erase wrinkles, and tone can be added to provide a more rested, youthful appearance.

Normally, the eyelid lift operation is performed by Dr. Jones under a local anesthetic or general anesthesia and takes two to three hours. You may return to business and social activities in as little as four days.

Dr. Jones will discuss your concerns with you and explain the details of eyelid lift cosmetic surgery. He will take the time to understand the outcome that you want. There are several options to consider, including whether or not another facial procedure such as a face lift should be performed at the same time. He will work with you to determine a surgical plan that best suits your needs to create the results you desire.

Please call Dr. Jones to schedule a consultation or for more information about eyelid cosmetic surgery.
