Get an Eyelid Lift

Sagging, heavy eyelids can make you look tired and worn out, even if you’re feeling more energetic than ever. An eyelid lift, also called upper eyelid surgery, is one of the most effective ways to achieve a more alert, awake look and draw more attention to your best feature. Schedule a private consultation with our double-board-certified oculofacial cosmetic plastic surgeon to learn more.

What is an Eyelid Lift?

An eyelid lift, also called upper blepharoplasty, is a procedure that gets rid of heavy, stretched skin hanging over the upper eyelids. Heavy upper eyelids are a common sign of aging, but they can also be genetic. In either case, an eyelid lift can create a more natural and youthful upper crease to the eyelids, restoring a more rested and rejuvenated appearance.

Am I a Good Candidate for Upper Eyelid Surgery?

If you’re experiencing the following, you’re likely a good candidate:

  • Heavy, creased upper eyelids
  • Obscured vision
  • Upper eyelids that sit on the lash line
  • Hooded eyes
  • Sagging brows

The Benefits of Upper Eyelid Surgery

The eyelids are one of the first places to experience aging, meaning upper eyelid surgery can rejuvenate your appearance with a relatively minor procedure. With upper eyelid surgery, your eyes can become brighter and more youthful, and your cosmetic products can be more visible and less likely to collect in the crease. Finally, if you have problems with your vision because of heavy eyelids, this procedure can help.

The Upper Eyelid Surgery Procedure

Dr. Rostami can perform upper eyelid surgery with local anesthetic at our cutting-edge, private, on-site facility here in McLean. She will create careful incisions within the natural crease of the eyelid, removing excess skin, repositioning the tissues, and creating a more visible fold. Afterward, you can return home to recover.

Upper Eyelid Surgery Results

Upper eyelid surgery can take 1-2 weeks to heal. The most common side effects are swelling and bruising, especially around the eyes. Our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions. Within 2-3 weeks, you can begin to enjoy your results – a more refreshed look and brighter appearance to your eyes. Your results can last for years with the right skincare and non-surgical treatment regimen, and Dr. Rostami will help you learn more during a consultation.
