Sagging eyelids, a heavy and blocked field of vision, and an impression that looks older than you feel, all improved at once. Upper eyelid wrinkle surgery gives you naturally youthful eyes by making a drooping gaze clear and defined again.
As we age, the skin of the upper eyelid droops and the muscle inside the lid stretches along with it. The sagging lid starts to block your field of vision, lashes can poke the eye, and raising your brows to see clearly carves ever deeper wrinkles into your forehead. Upper blepharoplasty, also called upper eyelid wrinkle surgery, corrects all of this. It makes a drooping gaze clear and defined again, giving you naturally younger looking eyes.
Before surgery, Dr. Lee designs your new eyelid line together with you during the consultation.
The skin is incised along the designed line, and the sagging skin tissue and unnecessary fat are removed.
The eyelid skin is connected to the levator muscle and carefully sutured.
The surgery is finished, and your once drooping eyes become clear and defined.
Dr. Lee Haksoo personally takes responsibility for everything from your first consultation and a thorough patient analysis to the surgery itself, all within a safety focused medical system.
We never boast about case counts. As an eye specialty clinic built on a quarter century of experience, we promise natural results and high satisfaction.

IV sedation or local anesthesia. Which one suits you is decided during your consultation.
Stitches come out 4 days after surgery.
After 2 to 3 days.
Eye makeup and contact lenses are fine from two weeks after surgery. Avoid baths, saunas, exercise, and swimming pools for three weeks, and avoid alcohol and smoking for one month. Apply cold compresses for the first four days to ease the swelling.
It is worth considering if any of these apply to you. The skin and muscle above your eyes sag enough to block your field of vision. Your eyelashes poke your eyes. You use your forehead muscles to open your eyes, which is deepening your forehead wrinkles. Dr. Lee Haksoo confirms this with you in a personal consultation.
