The eyes are the window to the soul; our most often noted and viewed facial feature, and unfortunately the first facial feature to show signs of facial aging. Eyelid aging changes begin as early as the late 20’s and early 30’s and are one of the most common concerns that motivate people to seek plastic surgery. The most common sign of eyelid aging is “tired eyes” and the most common complaint I hear is that “people say I look tired and I am not”. Blepharoplasty, the plastic surgery procedure...

The eyes are the “window to the soul” and our most frequently viewed facial feature and unfortunately the first feature to show the signs of facial aging.

What Causes Puffy Eyes, Bags under Eyes and Dark Circles?
Our eyes are our most important facial feature! Unfortunately our eyes are the first area of the face to show signs of aging. Fine lines and crow’s feet can start to show in our late 20’s and early 30’s. Puffy eyes, bags under eyes and dark circles can also appear early.
Aging changes in the skin cause the eyelid skin to lose elasticity and sag. As the eyelid begins to loosen, normal fat that lies beneath the eyeball pushes... Read Full Story

New laser eye lift is faster with less bruising and no change in eyelid shape after surgery.
What is so new is that the laser is... Read Full Story

Understand that the eyelid skin appears darker than the surrounding facial skin in all people-dark eyelid color is the normal condition and is caused by... Read Full Story
