Blepharoplasty Explained: Functional & Cosmetic Benefits
At Restore Surgical Center in Kelowna, one of the most in-demand procedures we offer is blepharoplasty—a specialized form of eyelid surgery that delivers both cosmetic and functional results. Whether you’re struggling with drooping eyelids that impair your vision or you simply want a more refreshed appearance, blepharoplasty may be the right solution.
What Is Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that removes or repositions excess skin, muscle, and fat from the upper or lower eyelids. It can be performed for:
- Functional reasons, such as improving vision obstructed by sagging skin
- Cosmetic reasons, such as reducing puffiness, bags, or a tired appearance
At Restore Surgical Center, we focus on natural-looking results that restore confidence while improving eye comfort and function.
Functional Benefits of Eyelid Surgery
Many patients don’t realize how much drooping upper eyelids can affect their daily life. Beyond aesthetics, excess eyelid skin can lead to:
- Blocked peripheral vision
- Eye strain or fatigue, especially by the end of the day
- Difficulty wearing glasses or contact lenses comfortably
- Chronic forehead tension from overcompensating to lift the eyelids
Blepharoplasty can restore unobstructed vision, improve comfort, and even help reduce tension headaches caused by overused forehead muscles.
Cosmetic Benefits That Go Beyond Skin Deep
In addition to functional relief, patients often report feeling more confident and youthful following the procedure. Common cosmetic improvements include:
- Smoother, more defined eyelids
- Reduction in under-eye bags and puffiness
- A more alert and refreshed facial appearance
Many of our Kelowna patients choose blepharoplasty because it offers subtle but powerful rejuvenation with long-lasting results.
