Your eyes say so much about you, whether you want them to or not. When eyes look puffy or the upper eyelid droops, they send the message that you are tired, old or both. Perpetual puffy or droopy eyes are often caused by changes in the skin from aging, which can be remedied with certain cosmetic procedures. There are both surgical and non-surgical rejuvenation options that can give your eyes a refreshed look.
Dermal Fillers for Drooping Eyes
As the skin loses elasticity and fat under the skin, it can sag and wrinkle. The thin, delicate skin around the eyes is very prone to this aging change. The loss of collagen and fat in the upper and lower eyelid skin can allowing sagging. When this change is slight, dermal fillers can be a non-surgical solution. With the right facial filler, volume can be added under the skin to lift it back into a more youthful firmness, removing wrinkles and sagging that cause droopy upper eyelids and bags under the eyes.
Blepharoplasty or Eyelid Lifts
For more pronounced drooping or puffiness of the eyes, plastic surgery may be needed to achieve more youthful, energetic eyes. Blepharoplasty or an eyelid lift can be used on the upper, lower or both eyelids to rejuvenate their appearance. Small, discrete incisions are used to remove excess skin and elevate tissue. This can tighten and firm the eyelids for refreshed, awake eyes that look years younger.
If your eyes are making you look tired when you still feel energetic, consider visiting an experienced facial plastic surgeon to explore your options. You deserve to feel confident in your appearance at any age.
