Blepharoplasty Coral Gables by Careaga Plastic Surgery
Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty) in Coral Gables, FL
Understanding Blepharoplasty
As individuals age, eyelid muscles weaken and skin loses elasticity. This natural process creates wrinkles, sagging tissues, and potential vision impairment. Blepharoplasty, or an eyelid lift, is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess skin, fat, and muscle surrounding the eyes, providing patients with a smoother and more refreshed appearance.
Conditions Addressed by Blepharoplasty
- Saggy, drooping eyelids
- Bags and puffiness around eyes
- Fine lines and wrinkles
- Excess skin impeding vision
Surgical Techniques
Careaga Plastic Surgery offers multiple advanced blepharoplasty techniques tailored to individual patient needs:
- Transconjunctival Incision
- Eyelash Line Incision
- Pinch Blepharoplasty

Procedure Details
Blepharoplasty is performed under anesthesia, with incisions strategically placed to minimize visible scarring. Surgeons carefully remove excess tissue, reposition fat, and tighten underlying muscles to achieve natural-looking results.
Recovery and Expectations
Patients can expect temporary bruising and swelling following the procedure. Most individuals return to normal activities within two to four weeks. Surgeons provide comprehensive post-operative instructions to ensure optimal healing and results.
Candidate Considerations
Ideal candidates are healthy individuals with realistic expectations about surgical outcomes. A comprehensive consultation with Careaga Plastic Surgery's board-certified surgeons will determine individual suitability for the procedure.
