Blepharoplasty is the facial plastic surgery that removes the excess fat and drooping skin of the upper eyelids, minimizes bags under the eyes, and tightens the lower eyelid skin. Incisions for upper and lower Blepharoplasty are placed within the natural folds of the eyelids, where they will be hidden after they heal. The incisions are closed with very fine sutures.
