How to treat excess eyelid skin
Excess skin and laxity in the upper and/or lower eyelids.

About excess eyelid skin
The skin on the eyelids is one of the thinnest on the body, and because of that it tends to be one of the first areas to show signs of laxity — the excess skin can create a tired appearance or even interfere with the field of vision in more advanced cases.

Frequently asked questions
Can this only be fixed with surgery (blepharoplasty)?
Not necessarily — specific chemical protocols for the eyelid area can retract the excess skin without surgery, depending on the degree of laxity assessed.
Is the result long-lasting?
Well-indicated protocols for the area can have long-lasting results, but this is assessed individually based on the degree of laxity and the technique used.
