Blepharoplasty and eyelid lifting
Blepharoplasty (blepharoplasty of the lower or upper eyelids) is one of the most common surgical procedures performed on the face. The main task of this procedure is to correct the amount of skin and restore the proper tension of the tissues. As a result, the skin around the eyes regains its youthful appearance, contour and shape.
The surgery of the eyelids allows you to precisely get rid of the defects that cause the old and tired look of the eyelids, as well as the limited field of view and malaise.
