As time passes, one of the first signs of aging is sagging in the eyes. Dr. Daniel E. Rousso explains that hereditary plays a big roll in how the eyes change as people age. Many individuals find that they have bulging in the upper eyelid, which can cause hooding and possible obstructed vision. The most common complaint from individuals with this problem is feeling that they look tired when they are not. Now, men are becoming more interested in eyelid surgery than years before, during which it was considered a female procedure. Birmingham’s Dr. Rousso makes incisions in the natural creases of the eye in order to hide scarring post-surgery. In addition, many patients often combine brow lift surgery to achieve a more refreshed appearance. Recovery for blepharoplasty typically takes seven to eights days, at which point the stitches are removed and patients may wear makeup again.
