Upper eyelid surgery
Upper-eyelid skin and, when appropriate, other tissues are treated conservatively with eye function, brow position, and scar placement in mind.
Eyelids
For the upper and lower eyelids, excess skin and fat are assessed together with eyelid position and supporting structures. Tiia Pihlamaa always also evaluates brow position, forehead muscle function, and hairline location.
Overview
A considered, individual plan
Treatment around the eyelids is always planned on the basis of an examination performed at the consultation. Heaviness, excess skin, puffiness, or lower-lid problems can arise from different structures, so no single procedure suits every concern.
Procedures and assessment
What the category may include
