What are the most common types of eyelid surgery performed in Troy, Michigan?
The most common types of eyelid surgery are upper and lower eyelid blepharoplasty. These can be performed for cosmetic reasons, though insurance may sometimes cover upper blepharoplasty if there is visual limitation. Other types of eyelid surgery are more likely functional and is often covered by insurance; these include entropion and ectropion repair, eyelid retraction repair, floppy eyelid repair, and eyelid skin cancer repair.
What is Upper blepharoplasty?
The upper eyelids can develop aging changes including excessive and redundant skin, changes in upper eyelid fat pads, and skin hooding over the lashes. These changes can make you look tired, angry and older than your years.
Upper blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure to address these aging changes to restore a more lively and refreshed appearance. This procedure tends to have little down time and very high satisfaction rates. The incisions are hidden away in the natural eyelid crease and heals very well with excellent results.

Where to get eyelid surgery in Troy Michigan?
When considering cosmetic or reconstructive plastic surgery on the face, it is very important to find a surgeon who specializes in performing procedures on the face. While many surgeons may advertise providing blepharoplasty and brow lift surgeries, not every surgeon performs them regularly. This is important because, across medicine, it has been well demonstrated that surgeons who perform a given procedure frequently are more likely to have outstanding results and less likely to encounter complications.
Therefore, it is a good idea to understand how experienced your surgeon is in your procedures of interest. Specifically, it is important to verify your surgeon underwent the appropriate fellowship training, which is training beyond residency that allows surgeons become highly specialized in one area, such as plastic surgery around the eyes and face.
