Blepharoplasty

Softer lines. Fresher look

Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery) at Bravo Medical

What Is Blepharoplasty?

Tired, heavy, or aging eyes can make you look more exhausted than you feel. Blepharoplasty, commonly known as eyelid surgery, removes excess skin and fat around the eyes to reveal a refreshed, alert, and naturally youthful appearance. At Bravo Medical Aesthetics, our experienced team combines surgical precision with an artistic eye to deliver results that look like you — just well-rested.

Blepharoplasty is a cosmetic procedure that corrects drooping eyelids, under-eye bags, and puffiness by removing or repositioning excess skin, muscle, and fat. It can be performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both, depending on your goals.

Am I a Good Candidate for Blepharoplasty?

Ideal candidates are healthy adults bothered by sagging eyelid skin, under-eye bags, or a tired appearance that doesn’t reflect how they feel.

During your consultation at Bravo Medical Aesthetics, we’ll assess your eyelid structure, skin quality, and aesthetic goals to determine whether upper blepharoplasty, lower blepharoplasty, or a combined approach is right for you.

Benefits of Eyelid Surgery

Upper vs. Lower Eyelid Surgery

Upper Blepharoplasty addresses excess skin that hoods the eyelid crease, which can make eyes look smaller or create a permanently tired look.

Lower Blepharoplasty targets under-eye bags, puffiness, and loose skin below the eye for a smoother, more contoured appearance.

Many patients choose to combine both procedures for comprehensive, balanced rejuvenation.

What to Expect: The Blepharoplasty Procedure

Performed under local anesthesia or sedation, blepharoplasty typically takes one to two hours. Incisions are strategically placed along natural eyelid creases or just below the lash line to minimize visible scarring. Patients return home the same day.

Recovery After Eyelid Surgery

Downtime is typically minimal compared to other facial procedures:

  • Initial swelling and bruising subside within 1–2 weeks
  • Most patients return to work within 7–10 days
  • Sutures (if used) are removed within a week
  • Final results become visible as swelling fully resolves over several weeks
