Can Both Upper and Lower Eyelids Be Done at the Same Time?

Combined upper and lower eyelid surgery #blepharoplasty are routinely performed together, safe. An advantage of performing these procedures together is that you need only undergo a single surgical procedure and a single instance of IV sedation (twilight anesthesia). The other upside is that rejuvenating both the upper and lower eyelids provides balance. If a board-certified plastic surgeon has recommended upper and lower eyelid procedures, rest assured that they are routinely and safely performed together.
Thank you for the question.Stephen Weber MD, FACS

Over the past 35 years I have seenany women who should have had lower blepharoplasty with a forehead lift that would have given a much better result. Once the upper lid skin is removed the patient may or may not be able to have a browlift but never as good as it could have been.
