Frequently Asked Questions
Here are a few of our most frequently asked questions about eyelid surgery:
What's the difference between upper and lower blepharoplasty?
Upper blepharoplasty is designed to lift the upper eyelids and create a more defined eyelid crease. It can also remove skin sagging over the eyes. Lower blepharoplasty smooths the undereyes and lifts sagging bags of fat for a brighter look.
What anesthesia is used for blepharoplasty?
This depends on your unique surgical plan. Some patients can benefit from local anesthesia for less extensive procedures while others may need sedation. Dr. Misch will help you select accordingly.
Does eyelid surgery cause scarring?
Dr. Misch takes great care to conceal incisions so any scarring is undetectable afterward. For upper eyelid surgery, incisions are placed in the natural crease of the eyelid. For lower eyelid surgery, incisions are placed completely inside the lower eyelids.
