Blepharoplasty / Eyelid Surgery
Brighten and Refresh Your Eyes with Blepharoplasty
Rejuvenate tired or sagging eyelids for a more awake, youthful appearance
Over time, the delicate skin around the eyes loses elasticity, and fat can shift or accumulate, leading to drooping upper lids, under-eye bags, and a tired expression. For some, excess upper eyelid skin can even impair vision.
Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, is a highly effective procedure that addresses these concerns by removing or repositioning fat and tightening skin around the eyes. At Allure Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery, Dr. Percy Lo performs both upper and lower blepharoplasty procedures to help you look more rested, alert, and refreshed—while preserving your natural expression.
What Is Blepharoplasty?
A targeted surgical solution for eyelid aging and obstruction
Blepharoplasty refers to surgical correction of the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both. Dr. Lo evaluates your anatomy, aging patterns, and goals to determine the most appropriate surgical plan for you.
Upper Blepharoplasty
Removes excess skin and fat from the upper eyelids
Corrects ptosis (drooping upper eyelid) that may impair vision
May include muscle repair if the levator muscle has weakened or detached
Improves eye openness and eliminates hooding
Lower Blepharoplasty
Addresses undereye bags, puffiness, or sagging
Removes or repositions fat for a smoother under-eye area
May include canthopexy or canthoplasty to support the eyelid and prevent future sagging
Restores a firmer, more youthful contour beneath the eyes
Blepharoplasty can be both cosmetic and functional, offering aesthetic improvement and enhanced visual field in one procedure.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Determine if eyelid surgery is the right fit for your needs
You may be a strong candidate for blepharoplasty if you:
Feel that you look tired or older due to heavy eyelids or eye bags
Have loose, sagging skin that affects vision or comfort
Are in good general health and a non-smoker
Do not have serious eye conditions or uncontrolled chronic illness
Have realistic expectations about improvement and scarring
During your consultation, Dr. Lo will perform a detailed eyelid evaluation, assess your overall facial balance, and explain the best surgical approach for you.
What to Expect from Surgery and Recovery
Safe, personalized care with a detailed recovery plan
Facelift surgery is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes 3 to 5 hours, depending on the techniques used and whether procedures are combined. Incisions are placed carefully around the hairline and ears for minimal visible scarring.
After your facelift:
Expect swelling, bruising, and mild tightness in the first 1–2 weeks
Sutures are removed during follow-up appointments
Most patients return to light activities in 10–14 days
Strenuous activity and sun exposure should be avoided for several weeks
Final results become apparent in 6–12 weeks, with continued softening over time
Dr. Lo provides step-by-step guidance through the healing process to ensure a smooth, confident recovery.
A Natural, Rested Look That Lasts
Restore youthful definition—without losing your expression
A well-performed facelift shouldn’t change who you are—it should restore the best version of you. With Dr. Lo’s skill and attention to detail, your results will appear refreshed, lifted, and completely natural.
If you’ve noticed that your outward appearance no longer reflects your inner energy, a facelift may be the most effective way to reclaim your facial definition and confidence.
