Eyelid Surgery: Who is a Good Candidate?

Eyelid surgery can make a huge difference in the quality of life that you experience. It can improve your appearance and boost your self-confidence. If excess skin on your upper eyelids is blocking your vision, you will no longer have this problem after surgery. While there are many benefits that come from eyelid surgery, not everyone is a good candidate for it. The question is, who is a good candidate for the procedure?

In order for you to qualify for eyelid surgery, you must have issues that the surgery can address. When you look at your upper eyelids, do you see hanging or loose skin? Does this make it difficult for you to see? Do you sometimes have to keep your forehead muscles lifted in order for your vision to not be blocked? Upper eyelid surgery can address these problems. It can also help you if you have hooded or puffy upper eyelids.

Look at your lower eyelids. Do you see dark circles or even bags under them? How would you describe the condition of your lower eyelid skin? If crepe paper is something that it reminds you of, you are likely a good candidate for lower eyelid surgery.

Some of our clients need to address both their upper and lower eyelids during their procedure. When you come in for your initial consultation, our surgeon can closely examine your upper and lower eyelids and then recommend the best treatment to help you rejuvenate and refresh your appearance.

There is no specific age that a person needs to be in order to qualify for eyelid surgery. Even young individuals can have eyelid surgery. It is usually at the point when a person is no longer getting the most out of their less invasive treatments.

There are a lot of things that are taken into consideration when it comes to determining if a person is a good candidate for eyelid surgery. At Visage Cosmetic Clinic, we want you to have the best outcome you can possibly get from any cosmetic treatment. Contact us today to set up a consultation in Winnipeg so that we can help get you started down the path to rejuvenating your appearance.
