    Eyelid Surgery in Delhi

    An eyelid lift, or blepharoplasty, is a procedure to remove skin and to add or remove fat from the eyelids. Droopy eyelids are a major reason behind people considering eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) to tighten excess eyelid skin for a more youthful appearance. It has been growing in popularity and number in recent years. If you’re tired of looking tired even when you feel great, it may be time to talk to Dr Monisha Kapoor about your options.

    Why have an eyelid reduction?

    This surgery is usually done for cosmetic reasons. With age, our muscles slacken and the skin loses its elasticity and begin to appear around our eyes earlier than in most other areas. The surgery will restore your bright, youthful appearance, giving your face a rejuvenated look.

    The main reason to having a blepharoplasty surgery are to get more vibrant and awake facial appearance. Upper eyelid excess skin and fat can create a heavy looking eyelid, aged appearance, puffiness, and sometimes block the upper field of vision whereas excess skin on the lower eyelid causes wrinkles and bulges.
