The most common cause of tired eyes is sagging or baggy eyelid skin. This is usually caused by aging, genetics, and sun exposure. The best treatment for this condition is Blepharoplasty. Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that is used to remove the excessive skin on the upper eyelid or bags from the lower eyelid. It is extremely safe and effective.
The surgery can usually be preformed right in the office under local anesthesia. Most people experience some mild bruising and swelling, which last about two weeks. The resulting hairline scare which follows the natural contour of the eyelids tends to fade in about two months. To remove the fatty deposit which causes lower eyelid puffiness, incisions are placed just inside the lower eyelid which prevent any visible scars. If done properly the results are natural and dramatic.
