What is Male Blepharoplasty?
Droopy and puffy eyelids can make you look tired, grumpy, and older. Even worse, the aging process can even affect the eyelids so much that you experience vision impairment. The blepharoplasty procedure targets excess tissue and fat in the eyelid to tighten the muscles, ligaments, and skin for a more youthful appearance. The result is a tighter, more awake upper eye area with improved vision capabilities.

Why Do People Undergo Male Eyelid Surgery?
Typically, people choose to undergo eyelid surgery for one of two reasons: They are unhappy with how the aging process has made their eyelids look or they are experiencing vision loss due to sagging eyelids. Whether you’re considering a blepharoplasty due to cosmetic or medical reasons, both permit strong candidacy for this procedure. Eyelid surgery is also often performed in conjunction with other surgical procedures, if you wish to correct more than just the eyelids at one time.
Who is a Candidate for Male Eyelid Surgery?
People who are over the age of 30 and have baggy or droopy eyelids are likely a strong candidate for the procedure. If Dr. Bounds thinks that the procedure should be combined with another treatment option, such as a lower lid surgery, he will make such recommendations. You will discuss your treatment plan and goals for the eyelid surgery with Dr. Bounds at your consultation.
How is Male Eyelid Surgery Performed?
Blepharoplasty is performed using local or general anesthesia depending upon your treatment plan. The procedure itself will also vary depending if both the upper and lower eyelids are being treated. Accordingly, Dr. Bounds will make tiny incisions along the natural folds of your eyelid. Using these incisions to access underlying tissue, Dr. Bounds will then separate the skin from the fatty tissue and remove any excess to recontour the lids. Once the excess skin and tissue are removed, Dr. Bounds will close the incisions.
How Much Does Male Eyelid Surgery Cost in Virginia Beach, VA?
The cost of your eyelid surgery will depend on the scope of your treatment. Dr. Bounds will discuss the cost for your eyelid surgery procedure at your consultation, where he will also develop your individualized treatment plan. For your convenience, we offer CareCredit® and APLPHAEON financing on all procedures. For more information, visit our patient financing page.
