What is Blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty surgery is an easy and safe procedure that allows a noticeable rejuvenation of the eyes, giving the face a new-found freshness.

This procedure allows the elimination of eyelid folds (eyelid ptosis), fat bags, and in some cases the lifting of the outer corner of the eye.

Dr. Romano and Dr. Fuhr have always paid special attention to respecting the patient's gaze in order to correct but not distort the characteristic features of their eyes.

Blepharoplasty is one of the most frequently performed operations by both men and women between the ages of 30 and 70. Younger patients approach this operation for aesthetic reasons such as the appearance of sub-palpebral bags, while more mature patients approach it for problems with ptosis of the eyelids or eyebrow, with in severe cases obvious problems of visual field reduction. The operation is performed in the following cases:

  • Adipose accumulations or upper and lower eyelid bags
  • Weighted eyes with ptosed eyelids giving a sad and tired look
  • Periorbital skin folds known as 'crow's feet' with skin relaxation

The procedure can be performed throughout the year. The doctors at Studio Romano Fuhr recommend surgery particularly in the summer months because of the common practice of wearing sunglasses, which enables the patient to hide the operated part from prying eyes for about 7 days.
