Miami Eyelid Surgery
Don't let your wrinkles give your age away, say bye-bye to tired eyes!
Miami Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)
Eyelid surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, helps to rejuvenate the droopy and sagging eyelids. Eye bags, as they are often called, give an impression of fatigue and age. By removing the fatty tissue and skin that create them, our plastic surgeons are able to give patients of Miami eyelid surgery a more rested, youthful appearance. In extreme cases, drooping eyelids may also block peripheral vision, making blepharoplasty important for safety. Eyelid surgery is also popular with Miami and Fort Lauderdale-area patients as a complement to brow lift surgery.

Eyelid Surgery Procedure (Blepharoplasty)
The cosmetic surgeons of CG Cosmetic operates on Miami blepharoplasty patients through incisions in the creases of the eyelid in order to hide visible signs of surgery. The doctor trims away extra skin, removes fatty tissue that tends to build up in the lower eyelid, and repositions the muscles to produce a tighter, smoother appearance before closing incisions to complete the blepharoplasty procedure.
THE RECOVERY
Immediately after eyelid surgery, eyelid patients should be prepared for some swelling and soreness. Many people experience excessive tear production and temporary blurred vision, and some also report an increased sensitivity to light. Recovering patients will need to wear sunglasses to protect the eyes and use eye drops and a specially prescribed lotion to keep the eyes and incisions lubricated.
The surgeon usually removes blepharoplasty stitches about one week after surgery, and Miami eyelid patients can return to work after 10 days. Early bruising and swelling fade steadily over the following weeks.
Brow Lift in Miami
A brow lift (forehead lift) raises low or heavy eyebrows and can soften forehead lines and the frown lines between the brows. When the brows sit low they push skin down onto the upper eyelids, so hooded eyes are not always an eyelid problem.
Brow lift or eyelid surgery for hooded eyes?
If extra skin sits on the upper eyelid itself, upper eyelid surgery removes it. If the eyebrows have dropped, a brow lift repositions them, and removing eyelid skin alone could pull the brows even lower. Many patients benefit from both in the same surgery. Your surgeon checks your brow position and eyelid skin at your consultation and recommends the right plan.
Brow lift techniques
Common techniques use a few short incisions hidden in the hair (endoscopic brow lift) or an incision along the hairline, which can avoid making a high forehead look higher. Your surgeon recommends a technique based on your forehead height, brow position and hairline.
How much does a brow lift cost in Miami?
Brow lift pricing is set at your consultation. It depends on the technique, whether it is combined with eyelid surgery or a facelift, anesthesia and the surgical facility. You receive a written quote for your plan, and financing is available (approval and terms vary).
