Eyelid Plastic Surgery

by F. Ryan Wermeling, MD

Eyelid surgery (Blepharoplasty) is used to remove the fat deposits and loose skin that may form on the eyelids with age.

Many factors, including heredity and sun damage, accelerate these changes. Small changes to the skin around the eyes can have a transformative impact on the youthful appearance of the face.

An important consideration is the impact of the eyebrows and forehead on the eyes. Treating the eyebrows and forehead can magnify the youthful rejuvenation of the peri-orbital area. Dr. Wermeling is experienced with minimally invasive treatment of the forehead through small incisions which are hidden in the hair line.
