Orange County Eyelid Surgery

Several cosmetic procedures comprise the art of facial rejuvenation, and eyelid surgery (“blepharoplasty”) is one such procedure. Whether performed as an introduction to facial cosmetic surgery, or as a complement to other facial rejuvenation selections, eyelid surgery offers the potential of dramatic, youthful-looking results.

As you explore your personal facial rejuvenation options, you may wish to learn specifically what eyelid surgery can accomplish. Primarily, the features that the procedure is known to effectively correct include:

• Drooping upper eyelids
• Lower eyelid “bags”
• Creases surrounding the eyes

The surgical process, which removes excess skin and fat from the eyelids, can significantly reduce the appearance of aging around the eyes. Additionally, if excess skin is currently interfering with your vision, eyelid surgery can improve this condition. However, patients should be aware that it does not offer correction of the following:

• Crow’s feet and other wrinkles
• Dark under eye circles
• Sagging eyebrows

However, Dr. Ambe offers facelift surgery and browlift surgery, both of which can be helpful in combating other visible signs of aging along with eyelid surgery.

Dr. Ambe can discuss these options, as well as further procedural and recovery details, with you during your pre-operative appointment.
