Hello! I’m Lauren, the aesthetic provider here at Colorado Plastic Surgery Center. Great question, and one we hear often from patients exploring non-surgical vs. surgical options. Whether you’d benefit more from a blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) or non-surgical treatments like PRP and microneedling really depends on what you're trying to improve. If you have excess skin, drooping lids, or fat pads under your eyes, surgery is usually the most effective and long-lasting solution. On the other hand, PRP and microneedling can be helpful for fine lines, mild crepey skin, or dark circles, especially if the issues are related to skin texture or pigment rather than actual sagging or structural changes. An in-person consultation is the best way to determine which option will give you the results you’re looking for. In some cases, a combination approach works best.
