In this upper blepharoplasty case, our plastic surgeon in Buffalo, NY, removed excess skin from the upper eyelids to reduce heaviness and restore a more defined crease. The result is a brighter, more alert appearance without altering the patient’s natural eye shape. By carefully placing incisions within the natural eyelid fold, scarring remains discreet while the overall expression looks brighter and more youthful.

Achieve a More 
Youthful Look
With Eyelid Surgery From Dr. Sherris

A blepharoplasty procedure from Dr. Sherris can enhance the appearance of your eyelids and improve your field of vision.

He can perform surgery on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. This surgical procedure can address:

✔ Sagging Upper Eyelids

As you age, the skin of the upper eyelids can lose elasticity and sag or droop. Although this is natural, drooping eyelids can make you look angry, tired, or sad.

✔ Baggy Lower Eyelids

Another consequence of aging, the lower eyelids can become puffy or baggy over time. Eyelid surgery can correct this cosmetic issue and create a more youthful look.

✔ Limited Peripheral Vision

For some patients, sagging upper lids can block peripheral vision. By removing the excess skin during blepharoplasty, Dr. Sherris can restore the full visual field.

Is Blepharoplasty Right for You?

During a consultation at our Buffalo, NY, office, Dr. Sherris will review your medical history and your aesthetic goals to see if eyelid surgery is right for you. Our plastic surgeon will inquire about your:

Overall Health

Certain health conditions can increase risks during surgery. If you have any medical concerns or are taking any medications, be sure to disclose this information to Dr. Sherris before surgery.

Tobacco Use

Smoking and using other tobacco products will compromise your body's ability to heal. At minimum, you should quit smoking a month before your eyelid surgery.

Expectations

No plastic surgery or treatment can completely reverse aging. However, a blepharoplasty can make you appear much younger than before.

The Blepharoplasty Timeline With Dr. Sherris

Blepharoplasty is a relatively short surgical procedure, taking 45–90 minutes.

Anesthesia

Depending on your needs, either local or general anesthesia will be used to ensure your comfort before any incisions are made.

Incision

Dr. Sherris will make small incisions near the upper or lower eyelids. He will then remove excess skin and sometimes fat deposits or reposition the natural lower fat pad. The remaining skin is tightened, giving you smoother contours around the eyes.

Sutures

After repositioning the skin, the incisions are closed. Dr. Sherris will remove the stitches about one week after the procedure and check your healing.
