Upper Blepharoplasty
We chose to create a long incision eyelid line that can strengthen the eyelid and enhance sagging or excess skin simultaneously.

Upper Eyelid Surgery (Upper Blepharoplasty)
Upper blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that addresses aging changes in the upper eyelids. As we age, the delicate skin above our eyes naturally loses elasticity, while the supporting muscles gradually weaken. This process often leads to excess skin accumulation and fat prolapse, creating a heavy, hooded appearance over the eyes. For many patients, this redundant tissue can create a tired appearance and, in more severe cases, may interfere with upper visual field function.
During upper blepharoplasty, the surgeon makes precise incisions along the natural eyelid crease, carefully removing excess skin and repositioning or removing fatty tissue as needed. This approach ensures that the incision will be well-concealed within the natural fold of the eyelid once healing is complete. The procedure not only restores a more alert and refreshed appearance but can also significantly improve peripheral vision in cases where the excess tissue obstructs the visual field. Recovery typically involves minimal discomfort, with most patients able to return to their daily activities within 7-10 days after surgery.
Our Surgical Philosophy
Successful eyelid surgery begins with restoring structural balance.
Rather than focusing only on cosmetic change, our approach addresses the underlying anatomical causes affecting the eyelid.
Each patient’s eyelid anatomy, muscle strength, orbital fat distribution, and eyelid support are carefully evaluated before surgery to determine the most appropriate treatment plan.
Whenever possible, healthy tissue is preserved and existing orbital fat is strategically repositioned to maintain the natural anatomy of the eyelid.
Our goal is not temporary cosmetic improvement but stable, natural results that maintain eyelid function and balance over time.

What Our Patients Say?
“Had my first double eyelid surgery 5 years ago but ended up with deep, harsh-looking folds that didn’t suit my face at all. Dr. Ahn did revision surgery to create softer, more natural creases. He’s so detailed and really understood what went wrong with my first surgery. Recovery took about 2 weeks but totally worth it! My eyes finally look the way I originally wanted – subtle and natural. He’s truly the best at revision cases.”
“Came to Dr. Ahn after a failed double eyelid surgery left me with multiple creases on one eye. Was super nervous about getting revision surgery but Dr. Ahn made me feel so confident. He fixed my weird creases and matched both eyes perfectly! If you need revision work, don’t hesitate – he really knows what he’s doing!”
