Upper eyelid surgery to repair heavy eyelids? (Photo)

Asked By:charbaut in Agoura Hills, California

Hello, I am a 57 year old female, interested in treatment options to repair my weighted eyelids. I’m trying to understand the difference between Blepharoplasty, and the repair of blepharoptosis levator resect. Are they one and the same or two separate procedures? From my research it would seem that they both do the same thing. Is it advisable to do one over the other, or is the levator resect part of a blepharoplasty procedure? Would the end results be equal? What would be my best option?
