Eyelid Surgery Leesburg, Eustis, Clermont

Strides in modern medicine have improved eyelid surgery techniques for increased precision and effectiveness. During a blepharoplasty procedure, we can remove excess fat, skin, and muscle tissue from the upper and lower eyelids, resulting in improved contour and unobstructed sight.

Upper and lower eyelid surgery can improve the aesthetics and function of the eyes, addressing drooping lids or bulging pockets of fat that impair vision. Surgery can also benefit patients who have had skin cancer lesions removed from their eyelids, refining their appearance.

As with any procedure, there are risks associated with eyelid surgery. While serious complications are rare, some patients may develop minor infection, irritation, numbness, or temporary vision problems. To ensure you are informed, our physicians can review these risks during your consultation.

The recovery period from eyelid surgery lasts several weeks, and most patients are able to return to work seven to ten days later. Some patients may experience minor side effects, including light sensitivity and blurry vision. Our staff can provide at-home instructions to ensure a smooth recovery.

Sun damage and genetics can accelerate the aging process around the eyes. To reduce puffiness and create a more youthful appearance, we can perform lower eyelid surgery. During the procedure, we can carefully remove excess fat and skin from under the eye, transforming your appearance.

Upper eyelid surgery can address a drooping eyelid that impedes vision. During this procedure your doctor can remove excess fat and tissue that sags over the brow line, for a tighter, more rejuvenated look. Upper eyelid surgery is often combined with other procedures such as lower eyelid surgery.

The average cost of eyelid surgery is relatively low in comparison to other forms of cosmetic surgery. The total cost of treatment is determined by several factors, including the type of medical testing required, anesthesia and surgical facility fees, and expenses associated with medication.
