With age, the membrane that supports the fat in the periorbital area becomes increasingly thinner, and some of it migrates to the eyelid area, giving it a puffy appearance. Also, the upper eyelid forms a fold above the eyelashes, which obstructs vision.

What are the medical indications for upper blepharoplasty?
Upper blepharoplasty can be performed for both functional and aesthetic reasons. Your cosmetic doctor may recommend upper blepharoplasty if excess skin around your eyes is obstructing your vision and affecting your quality of life. Excess skin can cause difficulties when reading, driving or working on the computer, and a reduced field of vision can lead to overstrained facial muscles, resulting in discomfort and headaches. Blepharoplasty can also give you an improved aesthetic appearance, helping you feel more comfortable in your own skin.

In general, most people can return to normal activities after about 10 days.
