Enhance Your Look with Blepharoplasty & Eyelid Surgery in Bluffton, SC
What Is a Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic procedure that removes excess skin, fat, and tissue from the upper or lower eyelids. As we age, the delicate skin around the eyes can begin to sag or puff, making us appear tired or older than we feel.
At Revive Palmetto in Bluffton, SC, blepharoplasty is performed to help patients restore a more youthful and refreshed appearance. In some cases, it can also improve vision that’s been affected by drooping upper eyelids. Whether you're concerned about under-eye bags, sagging lids, or signs of aging around the eyes, eyelid surgery offers a long-lasting and natural-looking solution.
