Upper Blepharoplasty in Jaipur | Upper Eyelid Surgery by Dr. Sushrut Kalra
Upper blepharoplasty is a specialized surgery that removes excess skin, adjusts underlying muscle, and addresses fat pockets in the upper eyelids to bring back a refreshed, more rested look. Over time, the skin around the eyes loses tightness, and fat that was once held in place can start to push forward, making the eyelids look heavy or tired.
Dr. Sushrut Kalra performs precise upper blepharoplasty in Jaipur. In more advanced cases, heavy hooding can rest directly on the eyelashes and even affect vision. By placing incisions carefully within the natural eyelid crease, excess tissue is removed conservatively to restore a defined, natural eyelid fold without changing the natural shape of the eyes.
Anatomical Concerns Addressed in Upper Eyelid Surgery
-
Sagging Upper Eyelid Skin Removes excess, stretched skin from the upper eyelid, while keeping enough skin intact for the eye to close fully and comfortably.
-
Puffiness in the Upper Eyelid Addresses fat that has pushed forward and created a puffy look, particularly near the inner corner of the eye, without leaving a hollow appearance.
-
Thickened Eyelid Muscle Trims a thin strip of underlying muscle when needed, helping create a smoother, more defined eyelid crease.
-
Vision Affected by Hooding Corrects skin that hangs low enough to block part of your vision, which can also ease the strain of constantly raising your eyebrows to see clearly.
-
A Balanced Eyelid Crease Creates a natural, symmetrical eyelid crease suited to your face, placed carefully to look appropriate and natural.
-
Identifying True Drooping vs Excess Skin Involves checking whether the drooping is due to excess skin alone, or whether the eyelid muscle itself needs to be corrected through a separate procedure.
