Many of my Houston eyelid surgery patients come in during their 40's concerened about the first signs of aging in their eyelids which is the thin crepe upper eyelid skin hanging over or hooding the eyelid.  This prevents placing eye shadow, mascara, and eyeliner easily.  Upper blepharoplasty or upper eyelid surgery removes this excess skin and allows for a more open eyed, refreshed, and rested appearance.  Upper eyelid surgery can be done under local anesthesia or light sedation.  Recovery after upper blepharoplasty is usually 5-7 days.
