Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure to correct drooping upper eyelids. It does not remove crow's feet. This procedure is not purely cosmetic because drooping eyelids often interfere with peripheral vision. They may also cause “tired” eyes and aggravate dry eye symptoms.

Blepharoplasty is done as an outpatient procedure with local anesthesia and sedation keeping the patient very comfortable. An incision will be made in the natural crease of the eyelid, excess tissue removed, and the incision will be closed with tiny absorbable sutures. Post-operative medication is typically limited to an antibiotic ointment. There is not typically post-operative pain, but bruising and swelling around the eyes may occur. As the eyelids heal, the incisions gradually fade with changes occurring for a full year after surgery.
