Blepharoplasty can help you look younger and more refreshed by removing the sagging skin around your eyes. This technique is useful for those who have droopy upper or lower eyelids that make them look tired and aged. Besides improving your appearance, blepharoplasty can also improve your eyesight if your eyelids are obstructing your vision. This surgery can also remove under-eye bags and make your eyes look brighter and more vibrant. Dr. Yalif at Y Plastic Surgery in Atlanta takes a careful approach to ensure that patients not only look rejuvenated but also maintain their natural look.
When considering an upper blepharoplasty Atlanta patients can experience both aesthetic and functional benefits, including:
At our practice in Atlanta upper blepharoplasty candidates are mainly those interested in permanent correction for sagging upper eyelids, hooded eyes, or asymmetrical eyelids that create a tired, aged appearance or interfere with vision. Candidates should be generally healthy and should have realistic expectations for the outcomes of the procedure.
Multiple concerns can be addressed with upper blepharoplasty such as:
During your consultation, we will discuss your concerns and aesthetic goals and perform a thorough evaluation of the eyelid area. Your Medical history will also be reviewed to determine if you are a good candidate and to form a treatment plan. Patients will receive detailed pre-op instructions prior to the day of surgery.
First, Dr. Yalif will make marks on the eyelid while you are awake using a special marker to ensure ideal results. Upper blepharoplasty is performed on most patients using general anesthesia, but sometimes local anesthesia and sedation may be used. Dr. Yalif will begin by making a delicate incision, usually in the crease of the eyelid, and will then remove tiny sections of skin and tissue before carefully suturing the area for as little scarring as possible.
Patients may see minor results after surgery, but due to residual swelling, final results may not be seen for around one to two months. After upper blepharoplasty surgery, some bruising, itchiness, or swelling is normal, but patients should follow instructions provided by the surgical team to avoid complications like infection and see optimal results. Initial recovery lasts about a week to ten days, but strenuous activity should be avoided for longer. Since this procedure makes surgical alterations, it is considered permanent, but excellent skin care and avoiding sun exposure can help great results last.
With many Castle Connelly Top Doctor awards, multiple magazine awards, and “best of” recognitions, along with premier education and triple board certification, Dr. Asaf Yalif is supremely qualified for your needs and is considered one of the best Atlanta plastic surgeons. Dr. Yalif, or “Dr. Y,” as many refer to him, and his team are passionate about providing superior patient-centric care and unmatched aesthetic results to every patient no matter their background and from all walks of life.

Upper Blepharoplasty is typically associated with very little recovery pain, and most patients do well with only over-the-counter pain medication and regular ice packs.
This surgery is considered permanent since surgical alterations are performed. However, it will not stop the aging process, so final results may ultimately be affected in the future.
Upper blepharoplasty is considered quite safe when performed by a skilled and qualified surgeon. Possible risks, as with cosmetic surgery, could include swelling, bruising, or bleeding and in rare cases, infection.
As part of a comprehensive treatment plan, we often combine upper and lower blepharoplasty for a balanced rejuvenation.
The cost of upper blepharoplasty will depend on the patient’s specific needs and overall treatment plan, as well as considerations like surgical center fees and anesthesia costs. At Y Plastic Surgery, pricing for most procedures can be found on our website.
