As a master of his craft, Dr. Coville’s results speak for themselves.
Do people constantly remark that you look tired? Do your colleagues ask you what’s wrong when you’re in a good mood? When you have droopy skin around the eyes, resulting in a tired or unhappy appearance, you may experience these things. Rather than letting this get you down, blepharoplasty can rejuvenate your skin around this area, creating a more youthful and refreshed look.
Blepharoplasty is also known as an eyelid lift. This surgery will repair droopy eyelids, removing some of the excess fat and skin, and reposition muscle in this area.
As we get older, our eyelids stretch, and the muscles that support them get weaker, causing excess fat to gather below and above your eyelids. This results in bags under the eyes, droopy upper lids, and sagging eyebrows. Thankfully, blepharoplasty can rectify this.
You may be a good candidate for blepharoplasty if the following applies:
Some types of eyelid drooping may require a different type of procedure to address properly. Dr. Coville will diagnose the cause and recommend the appropriate treatment. During your consultation at Cornerstone Plastic Surgery in Linwood and Toms River, NJ, he will discuss your goals and create the best treatment plan to meet them.
If you have surgery on both your lower and upper eyelids, Dr. Coville will typically tackle the latter first. Small cuts are made along the eyelid fold, through which Dr. Coville will remove excess skin and possibly fat. He will also reposition any muscle that has shifted. The cut will then be closed. The same process is carried out on the lower lid, with the incision made just underneath the lashes in the natural crease of your eye or inside of the lower lid.
You will be under anesthesia for this procedure so you do not feel any pain. You will need someone to drive you home afterwards, since you will probably still feel drowsy and have swelling around your eyes.
Very small incisions allow Dr. Coville to access the fat and tissue around the eyes, while larger incisions may be needed to remove excess skin. The doctor will hide these incisions in the natural folds of the eye so they become almost invisible.
If you have sagging skin or excess tissue around the eyes, you may be a good candidate for this procedure. You should be in overall good health. An evaluation and examination at our Atlantic County, New Jersey office with Dr. Coville helps him determine whether this procedure will work best for you.
Prior to surgery, Dr. Coville may recommend some steps to prepare, including stopping any medicines that could increase bleeding and quitting smoking at least several weeks before surgery. Follow all instructions to make sure your surgery and healing process go smoothly.

When you undergo blepharoplasty, Dr. Coville will provide you with aftercare advice which is important to follow. We recommend you take one week off work for recovery. Do not engage in any activities that would stress the incisions while they heal. You may need assistance the day you go home.
You may see some redness, swelling and bruising around the eye area. This should last for approximately a week. You may not be able to see your full results during that time due to swelling, but once this has faded, you can enjoy your rejuvenated appearance.
You can expect to look more rested and alert, with a more youthful and bright-eyed appearance. Without excess skin or fat obscuring them, your eyes will no longer look hooded or drooping.
As the focus of your face, bright and vibrant-looking eyes can help improve your confidence and make you feel better making eye contact with others. The results of an eyelid lift can be expected to last for many years.
