Droopy Upper Eyelids

Upper eyelid drooping or heaviness can cause us to look or feel older than we should. There are actually three different anatomical features that can contribute to the drooping: Excess skin, drooping eyebrows and weakened eyelid muscles.

These are Dr Sanderson's actual patients

Extra Skin

Excess skin around the eyelids can create a tired, aged appearance and, in some cases, can even impair vision. Eyelid surgery removes this excess skin to rejuvenate the eyes, creating a more open, alert look and enhancing peripheral vision.

I recently had eyelid surgery to correct drooping lids. Dr. Sanderson did an excellent job, very professional and thorough, explaining the surgical procedure in detail to me. I am extremely pleased with the results and would highly recommend his practice.

Droopy Brows

A sagging brow can also cause the upper eyelids to droop, leading to a tired or angry expression. Brow lifting techniques can reposition the brows, restoring them to a more youthful position and enhancing the overall appearance, without making the patient look surprised.

Droopy Eyelid Muscles

In some cases, the muscles responsible for lifting the eyelids weaken or become lax, causing the eyelids to droop (ptosis). Surgical correction of the droopy eyelid muscle can restore normal eyelid function, improve vision, and provide a more youthful look.

I had a very bad droopy right eye. I was referred to him by my ophthalmologist. I had my surgery October 2022. He did a remarkable job. He did a muscle reattachment in both eyes. I now have a good peripheral vision and people are just amazed at how good my eyes look I would recommend him to anyone.. I just can’t thank him enough. The office staff are friendly and very caring.

Puffy Lower Eyelids

Puffy lower eyelids, often caused by fat deposits or sagging skin, can make you look older or perpetually tired. Lower eyelid surgery can remove excess fat, tighten the skin, and smooth out the area beneath the eyes, creating a more refreshed and rejuvenated appearance.

Dr. Sanderson did an amazing job on both of my surgeries. Several years ago I was misdiagnosed with cancer on my lip from three other doctors/practitioners. When I went to Dr. Sanderson he immediately tested it for cancer and performed surgery to remove it. He also had to take skin from elsewhere so that I did not have a hole in my lip. Today people cannot even notice that I had the surgery done amazing job! Then I also had surgery just recently to reduce my droopy eyelids. He was very informative prior to the surgery and Rossi and the office staff gave me the confidence to go through with the procedure knowing that there would be minimal scarring that would not show. I am now about three months post op, my eyelids are very symmetrical and there is hardly any scarring. My mom and another person I know had this procedure done and the results don’t
even compare! Amazing job Dr. Sanderson!

I originally scheduled a consultation (upon referral) with Dr Sanderson for an upper bleph and must say I could not be more grateful for his talent and expertise. He is thorough, professional and efficient while still making one feel very welcome.
After my initial procedure, I was so pleased that I decided to move forward with a lower bleph and laser resurfacing and I am absolutely thrilled!
Not to mention “the eyes and ears” of the practice, Rossi, who makes you feel like a real part of their tight-knit family while making the entire process seamless with her thorough knowledge of everything you will experience.
Kristen is an absolute joy who has such an easy and kind demeanor you will feel well attended at all times.
Finally, there is but one unequivocally crucial requirement…brush up on your 80’s music because they know every song!
I unconditionally recommend Dr Sanderson without hesitation or reservation.
