Blepharoplasty
Rejuvenating the Eyes for a Refreshed, Youthful Look
What is Blepharoplasty (Eye Surgery)?
Blepharoplasty is a transformative procedure designed to rejuvenate the eyelids by addressing drooping skin, under-eye bags, and wrinkles. By enhancing the natural contours of the eyes, the procedure restores a refreshed, youthful appearance while maintaining a natural look.
Types of blepharoplasty performed by Dr Dolev:
Upper Blepharoplasty
A precise surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin, fat, and sometimes muscle from the upper eyelids. It addresses drooping or hooded eyelids that can impair vision or contribute to a tired appearance.

Lower Blepharoplasty
A specialized surgery that smooths the lower eyelids by removing or repositioning excess fat, addressing under-eye bags, puffiness, and loose skin. It can also tighten the lower eyelid if necessary which is also commonly described as a ‘skin pinch’.

How it works
Dr. Yalon Dolev takes a personalized approach with the Blepharoplasty procedure, always considering the natural eye anatomy to deliver harmonious results. For upper eyelid rejuvenation, he makes incisions along the natural crease, removing or repositioning excess skin and fat to lift and restore a youthful contour. For lower eyelid refinement, he utilizes either a subtle incision below the lash line or a hidden transconjunctival approach to reposition or remove excess fat, smooth fine lines, and gently tighten lax skin. Dr. Dolev uses techniques that leave discrete scars, helping patients achieve refreshed, youthful eyes while preserving their unique natural expression.
The eyes are the focal point of the face, and even subtle changes can create a significant impact. Blepharoplasty restores a youthful, refreshed appearance while preserving your natural expression.
Benefits of Blepharoplasty:
- Restores a Youthful Appearance: Lifts sagging eyelids, reduces under-eye bags, and smooths fine lines for a more awake, refreshed look.
- Eliminates Tired or Aged Look: The procedure addresses puffiness, excess skin, and drooping, which contribute to a tired or prematurely aged appearance.
- Smooths Under-Eye Wrinkles and Bags: The repositioning or removal of fat and skin tightening smooths out the puffiness under the eyes.
- Improves Vision: Removing drooping skin can sometimes enhance peripheral vision.
- Minimally Visible Scars: Incisions are carefully placed within natural creases or hidden internally to ensure scarring is virtually invisible.
Long-Lasting Results
By addressing skin laxity and repositioning fat around the eyes, Blepharoplasty offers a naturally rejuvenated look that enhances the eyes without altering their unique character. While the procedure does not stop the aging process, the results are long-lasting and can significantly improve overall facial harmony.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Blepharoplasty is an excellent option for individuals who want to address drooping upper eyelids, under-eye bags, or excess skin that contributes to a tired or aged appearance. Good candidates are generally in good overall health, non-smokers, and have realistic expectations about their results. This surgery mainly benefits those whose sagging eyelids impact their vision or confidence, offering a refreshed and youthful look. While commonly performed on individuals aged 30 to 60, blepharoplasty can be suitable for anyone seeking to rejuvenate their eye area and restore a vibrant, well-rested appearance.
