What Are Some of the Benefits of Eyelid Lift Surgery?

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid lift surgery, gives patients a refreshed, younger-looking appearance. It is an extremely popular plastic surgery procedure, thanks to its dramatic, but natural, results. However, in addition to the increased confidence and youthful appearance that eyelid lift surgery can deliver, this procedure offers even more benefits. If you’re considering blepharoplasty, consider these benefits you can expect from surgery. 

Better Vision

Frequently, patients are surprised by how much better they can see after eyelid lift surgery. It is often imperceptible at the time, but as your eyelids begin to droop, they also start to obscure your vision. Because the change happens so slowly, people often don’t realize how significantly their sight has been impacted until they wake up from their eyelid lift surgery. The expanded field of vision they experience after surgery is a welcome surprise to many patients. 

Fewer Migraines

Although the research into the link between eyelid lift surgery and migraines is limited, small studies have indicated that some sufferers of frequent migraines experience fewer headaches after their procedures. Though eyelid lift surgery isn’t a recommended treatment for migraine sufferers, discovering that you have fewer headaches after surgery could be a major benefit to some people. 

Brighter, Younger-Looking Eyes

Of course, the biggest benefit of eyelid lift surgery is that you will look refreshed and more youthful after your procedure. By removing drooping skin that causes heaviness and puffiness, your eyes will look bright and alert, and the area around your eyes will look smoother and more refined. Some people even notice that their foreheads seem to be smoother, since they raise their brows less after surgery. This helps reduce the dynamic wrinkles that appear when you furrow your brows, and the static ones that develop with that repeated motion.
