What Is Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty, commonly known as eyelid surgery, is a facial procedure designed to remove excess skin, fat, and in some cases muscle from the upper and/or lower eyelids. The goal is to refresh the eye area while maintaining natural expression and function.
Dr. Shamoun performs blepharoplasty to help patients:
Reduce drooping upper eyelids
Eliminate puffiness or under-eye bags
Improve upper eyelid contour

Restore a more alert and rested appearance
