EYELID SURGERY
Dr. Brown takes pride in helping patients refresh their appearance with the an eyelid surgery. Blepharoplasty, or more commonly known as eyelid surgery improves the appearance of eyelids to restore a more youthful look for patients.
Eyelid surgery can eliminate under eye bags, sagging lower eyelids, excess skin from upper eyelids, puffiness and wrinkles. Aside from its cosmetic purposes, this procedure also corrects obscured vision. Many plastic surgeons now offer temporary procedures aimed to treat eyelid issues. Although this may seem initially enticing, these results will diminish over time. Despite the growth in quick fix procedures, Dr. Brown helps patients at our Tampa plastic surgery office permanently treat eyelid problems with his eyelid procedures.
