How to tell if eyelid plastic surgery might be right for you?

The best candidates for eyelid surgery are physically healthy, psychologically stable, and realistic. Most electing for eyelid surgery are 35 or older, but if baggy eyelids run in your family, you may act when younger.

Eyelid plastic surgery can enhance your appearance and your self-confidence, but it will not give you ideal or perfect eyelids, or change your personality. Do discuss your eyelid plastic surgery expectations with your surgeon.

A few medical conditions make blepharoplasty more risky including thyroid problems (eg hypothyroidism and Graves' disease), dry eye (not enough tears), high blood pressure or other circulatory disorders, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. A detached retina or glaucoma is also reason for caution. Your plastic surgeon may recommend a visit to an ophthalmologist before surgery.

What eyelid surgery / blepharoplasty cannot do

Eyelid surgery cannot remove crow's feet or other deep wrinkles, eliminate dark circles beneath the eyes, or lift sagging eyebrows. Blepharoplasty can add an upper eyelid crease to Asian eyes, it will not erase evidence of your ethnic or racial origin.
