Eyelid Surgery

The eyelid surgery we offer in San Francisco, also known as blepharoplasty or an eye lift, can help tired-looking eyes look refreshed.

When people come in for eyelid lifts, they typically come with a history of feeling tired or having their friends or colleagues at work comment on how tired they look or you know, is the project overwhelming them, are they getting enough sleep, and they get concerned, you know, friends and coworkers. What we do is, we restore the smoothness in the lower eyelid by removing some excess bagging, some fat that is also a part of that aging process and there are people who actually, if you look at their families, mother and father, siblings that they also have inherited looseness in that area where the fat bulges out and they get these kind of a baggy-eye look, even at 20. So, they are not always older and then the hooding depending on the problem that's either a skin muscle or some fat and possibly we may have to even lift the brow in order to lift that extra heavy skin and muscle up and make the eye open up.
