Restore a Naturally Youthful, Refreshed Appearance with Expert Eyelid Surgery

At Eye Luxe Aesthetics, conveniently located within Cape Fear Eye Associates, we specialize in advanced blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) performed by board-certified ophthalmologist and oculoplastic surgeon Dr. J. Wayne Riggins, OD, MD.
 
Whether your goal is to improve vision affected by heavy eyelids or achieve a brighter, more youthful appearance, our personalized approach to upper eyelid surgery, lower eyelid surgery, and eyelid lift procedures delivers natural-looking results that enhance not change your appearance.

Blepharoplasty

What Is Blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty, commonly known as eyelid surgery or an eyelid lift, is a surgical procedure that removes excess skin, fat, and tissue from the upper and/or lower eyelids. The procedure restores a smoother, firmer, and more youthful appearance while preserving your natural facial expression.
 

For many patients, blepharoplasty is not only cosmetic but also functional. Excess upper eyelid skin can block peripheral vision, making daily activities such as driving and reading more difficult. Upper eyelid surgery can improve both appearance and visual function.

Signs You May Benefit from Eyelid Surgery

You may be an excellent candidate for blepharoplasty if you experience:

  • Drooping or sagging upper eyelids

  • Excess eyelid skin that interferes with vision

  • Heavy, tired-looking eyes

  • Puffy under-eye bags

  • Loose or wrinkled eyelid skin

  • A constantly fatigued appearance despite feeling well

  • Desire for a more refreshed, youthful look


During your consultation, Dr. Riggins will determine whether upper eyelid surgery, lower eyelid surgery, or a customized combination procedure is the best option for your individual goals.
