Upper Blepharoplasty

Have drooping eyelids and obstructed vision been bothering you more and more?

Drooping double eyelids
Sagging eyelids make you look older and tired
Irritated skin
Frequent eye discharge, with red, raw skin
Forehead wrinkles
Opening your eyes with your forehead makes wrinkles deeper
Obstructed vision
Your vision is obstructed, and eyelashes poke your eyes

“Putting up with it won't solve anything”

Upper blepharoplasty goes beyond cosmetics. It restores function and can change your life.

DOY JUN's delicate restoration erases the traces of time

Eye shape, size, and form

Eye width and height

How much of the iris shows

Eyelid condition

How much the eyelid skin and muscle have sagged

Skin thickness

Amount and distribution of eyelid fat and orbital fat

Strength of the eye-opening muscles

“Delicate restoration”
If eye surgery for younger patients is about “dramatic change,” surgery in middle age should be a restoration that erases the traces of time. We take the condition of your eyes into account and gracefully preserve your unique look, removing only the drooping eyelid skin and wrinkles to give you back natural, clear eyes.

When upper blepharoplasty is needed

  • Drooping eyelids cover your double eyelid or make it smaller
  • Sagging skin blocks your vision and feels heavy
  • You raise your eyebrows or forehead to open your eyes
  • You want to look younger and less tired

How upper blepharoplasty is performed

01. Precise one-on-one design

A custom plan that considers how much your eyelids droop and how they have aged

02. Refining loose tissue

Loose skin and unnecessary fat that interfere with the line are removed

03. Muscle correction and fixation

The levator muscle (the muscle that opens the eye) is pulled taut and firmly attached

04. Suturing to minimize scarring

Fine, precise finishing so that no scar is left behind

05. Result

Youthful-looking eyes restored, with clearer, more open vision

Key points of upper blepharoplasty at DOY JUN Plastic Surgery

A natural look

We keep your natural eye shape and remove only the droop. Your look stays the same, with no sign of surgery.

Stronger eye opening

We also correct weakened eye muscles so your eyes open with ease.

Slimmer upper lids

Excess fat and muscle are precisely trimmed to restore slim, sophisticated-looking eyes.

An incision that doesn't show

The incision is stitched along the grain of the skin, tucked inside the eyelid line, so it doesn't show even when your eyes are closed.
