What is a Blepharoplasty?
Tired, sagging eyelids making you look older or fatigued? Patients from Bethlehem, NY, and the surrounding areas seek blepharoplasty to combat aging eyelids.
Eyelid surgery rejuvenates by correcting droopy upper lids and under-eye bags, and removing or transferring fat, skin, and muscle for a refreshed look.
Blepharoplasty targets the upper, lower, or both eyelids and is suitable for healthy individuals seeking to reduce puffiness or sagging.
Discreet incisions within eyelid creases (upper) or inside lower lids allow the removal of excess tissue. Sutures close incisions, and a chemical peel may enhance lower lid tightening.

Testimonials
“I AM SO GLAD I DID THIS PROCEDURE”
“Every morning when I looked at myself in the mirror, it looked as though I had absolutely no sleep at all. The bags under my eyes were horrible and have bothered me for more years than I can remember. Time after time I was hearing from others that I looked tired so I finally made a decision to take care of it. I scheduled an upper and lower blepharoplasty and what a difference it made. Now I feel better about my appearance and have not had any “you look tired” comments since. The procedure was quick and easy with just a short healing time. I am so glad I did this procedure and couldn’t be happier with the work of Dr. Williams and his staff at the Williams Center.”
