When it comes to achieving an appearance as radiant and energetic as the sun in Nashville, there is nothing as effective as Blepharoplasty at Gilpin Facial Plastics. With our professional expertise and commitment to delivering remarkable results, let’s dive into everything you need to know about this transformative procedure.

What Is Blepharoplasty?

As we age, it’s natural for our eyelids to lose their elasticity, causing them to sag or appear puffy. A Blepharoplasty procedure at Gilpin Facial Plastics can effectively address these concerns, rejuvenating your overall facial appearance.

Blepharoplasty, also widely referred to as an eyelid lift, is a cosmetic procedure that enhances the appearance of the eyelids by removing excess skin, muscle, and sometimes fat from the upper and lower eyelids. This surgery addresses issues such as droopy upper lids and puffy bags below the eyes, which can make a person look older and more tired. Besides aesthetic improvements, blepharoplasty can also improve vision obstructed by sagging upper eyelids. It’s the perfect solution for those wishing to tackle under-eye bags, drooping eyelids, or generally tired-looking eyes.

Who Is a Candidate for Blepharoplasty?

Ideal candidates for blepharoplasty typically include individuals bothered by excess skin or fat deposits around their eyes, causing a tired or aged appearance. They may have drooping upper eyelids that impair their vision or puffy bags under the eyes that lead to a tired and weary appearance. Ideal candidates are generally in good overall health, with realistic expectations about the outcomes of the procedure. The best way to determine your candidacy is by scheduling a consultation with double-board certified plastic surgeon Dr. David Gilpin.

The Blepharoplasty Procedure

The blepharoplasty procedure is typically done under local anesthesia with sedation and involves making precise incisions along the natural creases of the upper eyelids or inside the lower eyelids to remove excess skin, muscle, and fat. Dr. Gilpin carefully reshapes and tightens the eyelid tissues to create a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance before suturing your incisions back up. Recovery involves mild swelling and bruising, with sutures typically removed within a week. Results gradually improve as swelling subsides, revealing smoother, more refreshed eyelids.

Benefits of Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty at Gilpin Facial Plastics and Aesthetics offers several benefits, including a rejuvenated appearance of the eyes by reducing sagging skin and puffiness, resulting in a more alert and youthful look. The procedure can improve vision obstructed by drooping upper eyelids and alleviate discomfort caused by heavy eyelids. Additionally, patients often experience enhanced self-confidence and satisfaction with their overall facial aesthetics.
