Looking to get rid of droopy eyelids?

Eyelid Surgery
Although sagging eyebrows, drooping upper lids and under eye pouches are a natural part of the aging face, these features can make an energetic person appear continually tired. The eyes, and the structures around them, contribute a great deal to the expression in our faces. With the passage of time, the Eyelid skin stretches, fat bulges and muscles weaken regardless of the condition of the rest of our bodies. Today, new techniques and advances offer a fresher, more alert look and quicker recovery.
Many people seek this type of facial rejuvenation in their thirties, forties, fifties and on to project the energy and youth they feel inside. For some, the sagging skin around the eyes may even affect vision. Eyelid Surgery and forehead lifts are often done in combination with each other to achieve the youthfulness that many people are looking for 5 to 10 years before they need surgery. Today, approximately one-fourth of all people seeking to improve their looks are men and that number is growing.
A consultation will provide you with a basic understanding of eyelid surgery and forehead lifts, including who are the best candidates, what to expect, what the procedure entails and likely results. Your cosmetic surgeon can discuss your individual circumstances and design an appropriate plan for you. It is important that you understand the procedure, so be sure to ask Dr Stephenson for any questions you may still have.
