When we look at someone’s face, we immediately look toward the eyes and the eyelid area, and the appearance of this area may affect our overall impression of the face. Loose skin of the upper eyelids may droop almost onto the eyelashes, becoming a significant annoyance. Bulging or a baggy appearance in the upper or lower eyelid may result from both loose and excess skin as well as from excessive fat deposits bulging forward within the eye socket.
Eyelid deformities may be the result of aging, or may occur from a heredity predisposition in the family. Excessive bulging or bagginess occurring before age 30 is usually a result of hereditary. With aging, the tissues which support the eyelid become looser, allowing fat within the eye socket to bulge forward and produce bags.
Correction of both upper and lower eyelid deformities involves a very precise removal of appropriate amounts of excess skin and fat. This surgical procedure is available at New Jersey blepharoplasty clinic.
