Your eyes are the first thing others see when they look at your face. An immediate impression is formed about your age, level of energy, and how tired you are. The eyes are also the first part of the face to show the signs of aging. It is also important to note that when people look at our eyes, they are not just seeing the upper eyelids or lower eyelids, they are seeing the entire region around our eyes. This includes the skin, the hollows and dark circles beneath the eyes, and the sagging eyebrows. Therefore when developing a treatment plan for real rejuvenation of the eyes, the changes that have occurred to the midface (upper cheek), eyebrows, skin, and volume have to also be taken into account. Aging of the eyes starts in the mid 30\'s. One of the first signs of aging is loss of volume in the lower eyelid region. This results in hollows (tear trough deformity) and dark circles that leave the eyes looking tired and drawn. With time other changes occur. Puffiness or bags along the lower eyelid region, accumulation of excess skin along the upper eyelids, decent of the eyebrows, loss of volume of the midface and upper cheeks, and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes are the other changes that result from aging. Following a comprehensive assessment of the aging-related changes around the eyes, a much more sophisticated treatment plan can be prepared. Commonly the plan involves a variety of non-surgical and conservative surgical modalities that when put together, truly rejuvenate the eyes with minimal risk and downtime. This leaves the eyes looking revitalized and rejuvenated without changing the shape of the eyes or their function. Non Surgical Eyelift - Fillers can be used to fill the tear troughs of the lower lids as well as the hollows along the upper eyelid region. This is an in-office procedure and typically takes 10 minutes and is virtually painless. The results are dramatic. They leave the eyes looking significantly more refreshed and less tired-appearing. Often this can be combined with Botox, which be used to lift the eyebrows and significantly reduce the appearance of wrinkles in the crows fee and along the lower eyelid region.

A common misconception is that eyelid lift surgery or blepharoplasty changes the way you naturally look or leave you looking pulled and un-natural.
