Laser eyelid surgery, or laser blepharoplasty, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure that removes excess skin and fat from the eyelids using advanced laser technology. It’s popular among patients seeking a refreshed, youthful appearance without traditional surgery.
Unlike scalpel-based eyelid surgery, the laser technique seals blood vessels as it cuts, reducing bleeding, swelling, and recovery time. Surgeons can perform upper, lower, or both eyelids depending on the patient’s needs.
Laser blepharoplasty is used to correct sagging upper eyelids, under-eye bags, and wrinkles. It not only improves appearance but can also help those with impaired vision due to drooping skin. The precision of lasers allows for refined sculpting and contouring.
Recovery is typically quicker compared to traditional methods, with many patients resuming light activities within a few days. Redness and swelling usually subside within a week. Results can last many years with proper skincare and sun protection.
