Upper eyelid surgery for bulging fat

Most of my Houston upper eyelid surgery patients come in for excessive hooding or a heavy appearance to the upper eyelids. However, in some cases, there may be excess fat in the corners of the upper eyelids close to the nose giving a bulging or full appearance to the upper eyelids. This is common with patients over 60 years of age. This fat can gently be teased and removed during upper blepharoplasty to create a softer, enhanced, and more youthful/rested appearance for the eyes.
