As a natural part of the aging process, wrinkles, lines, and puffiness around the eyes contribute to a tired or aged appearance. The eyes are among the first things noticed about a person, so it stands to reason that be they old and tired or young and energetic, judgments about the eyes will extend to the person. Eyelid surgery (also known as blepharoplasty) is a procedure performed to give the eyes a visual pick-me-up.Dr. Kimball M. Crofts performs blepharoplasty in Lindon, Utah. When performing the surgery, he makes small incisions in the natural contours around the eyes where any scars will be less noticeable. Fatty tissue is removed and loose skin is tightened, sometimes using laser to smooth the lower lids. If you are considering cosmetic surgery in Utah, you should schedule a consultation with Dr. Crofts to discuss your goals and what can be done to help you reach them.
