Blepharoplasty in Bend, Oregon

---

Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that improves the appearance and function of the upper and/or lower eyelids. It addresses:

• Excess upper eyelid skin
• Drooping or hooded eyelids
• Puffiness from fat deposits
• Under-eye bags
• Fine wrinkles around the lower eyelids
• Visual obstruction caused by sagging upper lids

By restoring smoother contours and reducing heaviness, blepharoplasty can significantly enhance facial harmony.

Upper Blepharoplasty:

Removes excess skin and fat from the upper eyelids to reduce drooping and create a more open, youthful eye appearance. In some cases, it can also improve peripheral vision.

Lower Blepharoplasty:

Addresses under-eye bags and puffiness by removing or repositioning fat and tightening the skin for a smoother lower eyelid contour.

Combined Upper & Lower Blepharoplasty:

For comprehensive eye rejuvenation, both procedures may be performed together to achieve balanced, natural results.

• Brighter, more rested appearance
• Reduced eyelid heaviness and sagging
• Smoother under-eye contours
• Long-lasting improvement
• Minimal visible scarring
• Enhanced self-confidence
