Mejora los párpados caídos
Si sus párpados están caídos o pesados, puede causar problemas más allá de los problemas estéticos. No solo tiene un aspecto constantemente cansado, sino que también puede afectar negativamente a su visión. Gracias a un cirujano plástico certificado por la junta Dr. S. Alexander Earle, Cirugía plástica pura ofrece cirugía de párpados que pueden ayudar a mejorar la apariencia y la funcionalidad de los párpados.
¿Qué es la cirugía de párpados?
La cirugía de párpados, también conocida como blefaroplastia o estiramiento ocular, es un procedimiento quirúrgico que elimina el exceso de piel y tejido de los párpados. Los depósitos de grasa debajo del ojo suelen ser los responsables de crear una apariencia cansada e hinchada, mientras que la piel flácida puede provocar la caída del párpado superior, lo que interfiere con la visión. Al abordar estos problemas con la blefaroplastia, los experimentados cirujanos plásticos de PURE pueden ayudarte a lograr un aspecto más joven y brillante.
Benefits of Eyelid Surgery
Eyelid surgery not only helps your eyes look cosmetically better, but it can also improve their functionality. Sagging eyelid skin can start to obstruct your line of sight, but blepharoplasty can help you see clearly again. Other benefits of eyelid surgery include:
- Eliminating sagging in the upper and lower eyelids
- Reducing the appearance of upper eyelid hooding
- Removing fatty deposits beneath the eyes
- Helping you look refreshed and more energized
- Getting rid of under-eye bags and puffiness
- Improving your vision and line of sight
- Creating smoother contours above and below the eyes
- Lasting and noticeable results with relatively little downtime
This procedure may target either the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both to address a variety of aesthetic and functional concerns. The right approach for you will depend on your specific needs and our team will develop a personalized treatment plan to help you reach your goals.
Ideal candidates for
Blepharoplasty
The best way to know if you would benefit from eyelid surgery is by scheduling a virtual or in-person consultation with an experienced and board-certified plastic surgeon. This way, they can examine the skin around your eyes and review your goals to understand what change is needed. This surgery is great if you want to restore a brighter, more energized and youthful look. Expertly crafted eyelid surgery is tailored to your needs and can dramatically improve your overall appearance.
Your initial consultation
The satisfaction of your eyelid surgery is heavily reliant on the communication between you and your doctor. During your initial consultation, you will meet with one of our surgeons or care coordinators to discuss your desired results, concerns, and what option is the best for you. We will go over the procedure and downtime in detail so that you feel prepared. You can look at before and after images so that you can see what results are possible. It is also important that you follow the directions of your doctor leading up to eyelid surgery for the best results.

What to expect during
Eyelid Surgery
Blepharoplasty may focus on the lower eyelids, upper eyelids, or both, depending on your concerns and anatomy. During your consultation, our team will examine your eyes and recommend the best approach for creating a natural look that rejuvenates your appearance. Eyelid surgery is performed as an outpatient procedure at our state-of-the-art surgical facility in Miami and takes about an hour to complete. If all four eyelids are being targeted, it may take longer. We use general anesthesia to keep you comfortable, although local anesthesia may be used for upper blepharoplasty, depending on your needs and preferences. You’ll be able to return home shortly after your procedure to begin the recovery process.
Upper Eyelid Surgery
Upper eyelid surgery removes sagging skin in the upper eyelid area to make the eyes look more open, refreshed and alert. To address these concerns, your surgeon will take precise measurements and make a small incision in the crease of the upper eyelid, following your natural contours for minimal scarring. Excess skin and tissue will then be trimmed. Once a more youthful look has been achieved, the incisions are closed with dissolvable sutures.
Lower Eyelid Surgery
Lower eyelid surgery targets excess fat and tissue beneath the eyes that can lead to puffiness. For bottom lid corrections, a small incision may be placed on the inner eyelid or hidden below your eyelashes. Excess skin and fat are then removed to refresh your appearance. Incisions are closed with dissolvable sutures, and you’ll be able to go home shortly after your procedure.
Quadruple Blepharoplasty
Quadruple blepharoplasty, also known as combined upper and lower eyelid surgery, addresses concerns in the upper and lower eyelids for more comprehensive results. It’s common for patients who have undergone either an upper or lower eye lift often come back and regret not having both procedures performed simultaneously, so our team may recommend this approach to provide full rejuvenation of the eyes with a single recovery period. The surgery itself may take longer to complete, but the expected downtime is about the same (one to two weeks).
Eyelid Surgery results
Your eye lift results will depend on your specific concerns and the techniques used, but overall, you can expect a brighter, refreshed and more youthful appearance. If sagging tissues obstructed your line of sight, you can also expect improved vision after surgery. Scarring is minimal following blepharoplasty, as incisions are hidden inside or along the natural crease of the eyelids. Once they’ve healed, they will blend in well with the surrounding skin.
For most patients, the results of eyelid surgery are permanent, as removed skin and tissue won’t come back. However, your eyes will not be immune to the effects of aging. Adopting a good skin care routine and protecting your eyes from sun damage can help prolong your results. Nonsurgical treatments like Botox or dermal fillers can also be used to address other concerns you may experience, such as fine lines, wrinkles or dark circles beneath the eyes.
Elevate your look with combinable procedures
If you’re also bothered by the signs of aging in the mid to lower face, blepharoplasty can be performed alongside other surgical procedures such as a facelift to help you achieve more comprehensive results. A facelift can effectively reduce wrinkles and sagging the lower face and neck to restore a firmer, more youthful appearance. During your consultation, our surgeons can recommend the most appropriate options for helping you look and feel your absolute best.
