What Is Eyelid Surgery? Blepharoplasty in Dripping Springs, TX

Also known as blepharoplasty, eyelid surgery rejuvenates the upper and/or lower eyelids by removing excess skin, tightening tissue, and repositioning fat for smoother, brighter contours. This delicate procedure can:

  • Lift drooping upper lids that weigh down the eyes.
  • Smooth puffiness and bags beneath the eyes.
  • Refine creases or folds that obscure the natural eyelid contour.

Every treatment is tailored to your anatomy and goals for subtle, elegant results.

Upper vs. Lower Eyelid Surgery

Every eye tells a different story, which is why blepharoplasty at Rêve Plastic Surgery is never a one-size-fits-all approach. Depending on your anatomy and concerns, your procedure may focus on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or a combination of both for complete rejuvenation. During your consultation, Dr. Anil Kashyap will carefully assess your facial anatomy and design a plan tailored to your goals, ensuring your results look smooth, natural, and beautifully cohesive.

Upper Eyelid Surgery

This approach targets drooping skin or heaviness that can make your eyes appear tired or even obstruct vision. By removing excess skin and refining the natural crease, the upper lids regain a lifted, refreshed appearance that restores openness to your expression.

Lower Eyelid Surgery

This procedure smooths puffiness, under-eye bags, and fine lines by repositioning or removing fat and tightening delicate skin. The result is a brighter, more rested look that enhances your overall facial harmony.

Combination Eyelid Surgery

A combination approach offers a comprehensive solution for patients experiencing both upper heaviness and lower puffiness. When performed together, these procedures achieve seamless, natural rejuvenation across the eyes, resulting in a youthful and balanced appearance.

Is Eyelid Surgery Right for Me?

You may be a candidate for blepharoplasty if you experience sagging upper lids, puffiness under the eyes, or a tired appearance that doesn’t match your energy. Many patients also opt for eyelid surgery to improve peripheral vision that is affected by excess skin. During your consultation, Dr. Kashyap will evaluate your eyelid structure, skin elasticity, and goals to determine whether upper, lower, or combined blepharoplasty is the best approach for you.

What to Expect The Eyelid Surgery Process

  1. Consultation and Design: Meet privately with Dr. Kashyap to discuss your goals and ideal aesthetic. He’ll explain whether upper, lower, or combined surgery will best achieve your desired outcome.
  2. Preparation: You’ll receive detailed instructions to ensure a comfortable experience and smooth recovery.
  3. Your Procedure: Performed under local or general anesthesia, Dr. Kashyap refines the eyelid contour by removing or repositioning tissue with extraordinary precision. Incisions are placed in natural creases for near-invisible healing.
  4. Immediate Recovery: You’ll rest in our private recovery suite, then return home the same day.
  5. Follow-Up: Swelling and mild bruising fade over one to two weeks. Dr. Kashyap closely monitors your healing to ensure optimal, natural results.

Your Blepharoplasty Recovery & Results

Most patients notice early improvement within days as swelling begins to fade, with final results appearing gradually over a few weeks. Temporary dryness, mild tightness, or light sensitivity are normal and can be easily managed with proper care.

Your refreshed appearance will look completely natural: brighter, smoother, and subtly lifted. Scars are hidden in natural creases and fade to near invisibility. With proper skincare and sun protection, your results can last for many years to come.

FAQs Eyelid Surgery Dripping Springs, TX

What’s the difference between upper and lower eyelid surgery?

Upper eyelid surgery removes excess skin and restores lift, while lower eyelid surgery smooths puffiness and refines under-eye contours.

Will my results look natural?

Yes. Dr. Kashyap’s technique focuses on subtle, balanced rejuvenation — helping you look refreshed, not “different.”

How long is the recovery?

Most patients return to light activity within a few days and normal routines in about one week.

Will there be visible scars?

Incisions are placed within natural eyelid creases or inside the lower lash line and fade to near invisibility.

How long do results last?

Results are long-lasting—typically 10 years or more for upper lids, and even longer for lower lids.

Can eyelid surgery improve vision?

Yes. Removing excess upper eyelid skin can help restore peripheral vision that is affected by drooping tissue.

Is the procedure painful?

Discomfort is minimal and easily managed. Most patients describe tightness or mild soreness, not pain.
