Hooded Lids can age your face, and also obstruct face. Look 10 years younger with this simple procedure!
Hooded eyelids occur when excess skin folds down from the brow bone over the upper eyelid, creating a “hooded” appearance. This condition can obscure the natural crease of the eyelid, making the eyes appear smaller or more closed. Hooded eyelids can affect one or both eyes and may vary in severity from subtle to pronounced.
The most common cause of hooded eyelids is the natural aging process. As we age, the skin loses elasticity and collagen, causing it to sag. The muscles around the eyes may weaken, exacerbating the drooping appearance. Sometimes it can also be hereditary.
Upper eyelid blepharoplasty is a surgery to make your eyelids look better and help your eyes feel less heavy. It’s like giving your eyelids a little makeover! Sometimes, as people get older, their upper eyelids can get droopy, making it harder to see or making them look tired. This surgery fixes that by removing extra skin or fat.

Cold compresses and keeping your head elevated help reduce swelling, while prescribed medications manage discomfort. Stitches are typically removed within a week, and most patients can resume light activities by the second week, avoiding strenuous exercises until cleared. Protect your eyes from sunlight with sunglasses and use scar-reducing creams as recommended. Final results become visible within 2-3 months as scars fade and healing completes.
