Your eyes express emotion, energy, and vitality. Over time, however, loose skin, puffiness, and drooping eyelids can make you appear more tired or older than you feel. At Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery, cosmetic surgeon Dr. Tsion Berhane performs upper and lower eyelid surgery in Silver Spring with precise and compassionate care to help you look as vibrant as you feel.
Dr. Berhane approaches every facial surgery with artistry and empathy. She takes the time to understand your goals, carefully plans every step, and continually refines her surgical techniques to deliver safe, natural-looking results for all patients.
Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a cosmetic procedure that removes or repositions excess skin, muscle, and fat from the upper and lower eyelids. The goal is not to drastically change your appearance—it is to restore the natural definition around your eyes, so you look refreshed, rested, and confident.
This procedure can also improve your field of vision if sagging upper lids obstruct your sight. In Silver Spring, Dr. Berhane may recommend either upper or lower blepharoplasty or a combination of both for balanced results.
Over time, the delicate skin on your upper eyelids can lose elasticity, leading to folds that hang over your natural lid crease. This can make eye makeup difficult to apply and may even interfere with your vision.
At our Silver Spring surgery center, Dr. Berhane makes a small incision along the natural eyelid crease to remove excess skin and carefully reshape underlying tissue to restore a smoother, more youthful contour. She then closes the incision site with fine sutures to blend with your natural folds.
The result is eyes that look open, alert, and naturally refreshed, without an artificial or tight appearance. You might consider an upper blepharoplasty to correct sagging or hooded upper lids, restore a defined eyelid crease, or brighten tired-looking eyes.
If under-eye puffiness or dark circles make you look tired even after a full night’s rest, a lower blepharoplasty can help. This procedure corrects bags and excess skin beneath your eyes to create a smoother, more youthful-looking transition between your eyelids and cheeks.
To soften a hollow or puffy appearance, Dr. Berhane makes a discreet incision just below your lower lash line or inside the eyelid. She then removes or repositions fat deposits and tightens the underlying muscle and skin.
For patients in Silver Spring, Chevy Chase, Bethesda, and North Bethesda, lower eyelid surgery can help reduce puffiness or bags under the eyes. It also smooths wrinkles and creases below the lashes while eliminating sagging skin that accentuates dark shadows.
During your consultation, you will meet with Dr. Berhane to discuss your goals, health history, and aesthetic vision. She also examines your eyelids and facial anatomy, explains incision options, and reviews realistic expectations for your results.
She typically performs eyelid surgery using either local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia to ensure you are safe and comfortable throughout the procedure. A blepharoplasty usually takes one to two hours, depending on whether you are having an upper, lower, or combined treatment in Silver Spring.
Mild swelling or bruising is normal after surgery and gradually fades over the next couple of weeks. Dr. Berhane and her team also provide you with detailed postoperative care instructions to ensure your smooth recovery. As you heal, your eyes appear brighter and naturally more youthful, and many patients enjoy a rejuvenated look that lasts for years.
If you are ready to rejuvenate your appearance and rediscover a youthful, vibrant expression, Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery is here to help.
