Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) can be used to correct hollows around the eyes, loose skin, and fine lines and wrinkles. Now, new surgical techniques are enabling doctors to make these improvements without giving patients a “pulled” look, but instead achieving a natural effect where patients look youthful and rested. Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Brett Snyder explains several new trends in lower eyelid surgery in this interview from the 2009 Aesthetic Meeting of the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, and what doctors have learned about facial aging.

I am interest in lower eye lid surgery
March 2nd, 2010 at 7:29 am
Hi there,
I just turned 40 this year. About a month a go when I got up I noticed that my right eye’s lid feels like it is not folding properly, like I have another eyelid. I am seriously thinking some sugery. It even feels weird when I open and close my eye. It is so strange, it is like it doesn’t fold into my natural crease.
I am not sure if there is something else I can do to avoid surgery and it this a major surgury?
Thanks for you time,
Tracy
