Upper Blepharoplasty to refresh the appearance of an older woman

Upper eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) is a common request in our cosmetic surgery practice. Excess skin, hooding or droopy tissue, and wrinkles are concerns that patients bring to their plastic surgeon. Eyelid surgery may address many aspects of the eyes and can have a dramatic improvement to one's appearance.

This woman traveled to Potomac Plastic Surgery to seek specialized care with Dr. Chaboki, a board certified facial plastic surgeon. He reviewed cosmetic options to enhance her appearance. Her primary concern was that she felt her appearance was "tired" and preferred conservative changes so as not to appear different, but simply better rested. 

She underwent upper eyelid surgery with skin reduction that helped open her eyes and gave a more refreshed and energetic appearance. The procedure can be done via awake, local anesthesia in the office. She continues to love her natural results and has referred other patients for cosmetic surgery to Potomac Plastic Surgery.
