Laser blepharoplasty is a minimally invasive surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate the eyelids and create a more youthful, refreshed appearance. This advanced technique uses a laser to remove excess skin and fat around the eyes, reduce puffiness, and smooth fine lines and wrinkles. Whether you’re looking to correct drooping eyelids, under-eye bags, or improve your overall eye area, laser blepharoplasty can help you achieve a more vibrant look.

Procedure Overview

Performed under local anesthesia, the laser blepharoplasty procedure typically takes between 30 minutes to one hour, depending on whether both the upper and lower eyelids are being treated. To ensure your safety and comfort, protective eyewear is provided before the surgery begins.

During the procedure, Dr. Abrams uses a hand-held laser device to make precise incisions around the eyelids. The laser's light beam not only creates a clean cut but also seals blood vessels, minimizing bleeding and reducing the risk of complications. This technology allows for greater precision, enhancing the overall outcome of the surgery.

For upper blepharoplasty, excess skin and fat are removed to address sagging eyelids and create a more open and youthful appearance. For lower blepharoplasty, the focus is on reducing puffiness and under-eye bags, resulting in a smoother, more rested look.

After the procedure, the incisions are carefully closed with sutures, and you can begin the healing process toward brighter, younger-looking eyes.
