Thin Skin

The skin around the eyes is extremely delicate. Thinner than other areas, such as the cheeks and chin, it is also subject to stretching in various directions when you rub your eyes, wink, smile or carelessly smear on moisturizer. Perhaps its thinness, combined with these daily “assaults,” contributes to the periorbital skin (skin around the eyes) showing signs of aging more quickly than other areas of the face. Wrinkles, crows feet, bags and drooping eyelids are common occurrences as time marches on.

Eyes Need a Lift?

In this day and age it’s actually possible to reverse the signs of aging around your eyes with an eyelift surgery, or blepharoplasty. An eyelift isn’t just one procedure, it’s actually two — upper and lower eyelid blepharoplasty — that can be customized for your particular case.

Eyelift Surgery

Generally an upper eyelid blepharoplasty involves correcting drooping eyelids. Incisions are made in the natural eye creases and excess skin is removed. At times, an upper eyelid surgery can be medically necessary. Eyelids that sag so much they obstruct vision are often covered by medical insurance. Your Charlotte eyelift specialist may also recommend a brow lift to better improve your vision.

Lower eyelid blepharoplasty differs slightly. Your Charlotte eyelift surgeon can help fix bags under the eyes by removing the excess fat deposits and repositioning them elsewhere. These deposits might be moved into the cheeks to create a smooth transition between the eyes and the cheekbones. Should you need fat underneath your eyes to improve appearance, it can be taken from another area of the body and deposited in the tear trough or lower eyelid bag.
