Rejuvenate Your Eyes and Reclaim Your Youthful Gaze
Say Goodbye to Sagging Skin, Puffiness, and Dark Circles
Blepharoplasty
As we age our eyelid skin on both upper and lower lids starts to crepe and sag. Often the weight of the lids causes the eyelids to droop and obstructs the field of vision. Common symptoms are heavy eyes, tiredness and a drawn out look. Often the forehead muscles are used to lift the brow up and in so doing allow better vision because the excess skin is pulled upward.
A blepharoplasty procedure can address the excess skin and fat, and allow you to see better.

Medical Schemes
Medical schemes may cover some of the costs of blepharoplasty with appropriate motivation.
Do I need this?
A brow lift may be recommended if the position of the brow is too low and impacts on the eyelid sagging. A blepharoplasty can make a big difference to your life and not just aesthetically
