blepharoplasty
Cosmetic eyelid procedure
Blepharoplasty is cosmetic surgery on the eyelids, typically to remove excess skin, fat, or muscle that causes drooping or puffiness.
The procedure can be performed on upper lids, lower lids, or both, and may be done for aesthetic reasons or to improve vision when sagging skin obstructs sight.
She considered blepharoplasty after years of being told she looked tired.
