Join our distinguished clientele who have experienced the artistry of upper eyelid rejuvenation, where precision meets beauty to reveal your most vibrant self.
Upper blepharoplasty, also known as the Ellevate Lid Lift at our practice, is a specialized eyelid surgery designed to rejuvenate the area above your eyes. This surgical technique addresses common concerns like drooping eyelids, excess skin that creates a hooded appearance, or puffiness from fatty deposits that can make you look tired or aged.
During blepharoplasty surgery, Dr. Jayaram makes precise incisions hidden within your natural eyelid crease, carefully removing or redistributing excess skin, muscle, and fat to create a refreshed, natural-looking result. “The Ellevate Lid Lift” can also improve your vision if drooping eyelids have been affecting your sight, and make daily activities like applying makeup easier.
Dr. Jayaram has developed this advanced technique to be gentler than traditional approaches, resulting in minimal bruising and swelling for our eyelid surgery patients. She uses dissolvable sutures that don’t need to be removed, making your recovery more comfortable. Her specialized background in ophthalmology ensures that your results will look natural while prioritizing the health and function of your eyes.
Recovery is typically quick and comfortable – most blepharoplasty patients return to their normal activities within a week. The incisions heal remarkably well, becoming virtually invisible within the natural contours of your eyelids. Whether you’re seeking to address vision concerns, achieve a more refreshed appearance, or both, the Ellevate Lid Lift offers a safe and effective solution with lasting results.as

Immediate Post-Operative Period (First 48 Hours)
Most blepharoplasty patients experience minimal discomfort immediately after surgery. You’ll receive detailed instructions for post-operative care, including the use of cold compresses and keeping your head elevated. While some mild swelling is normal, Dr. Jayaram’s precise surgical technique minimizes post-operative bruising and discomfort.
First Week of Recovery
Long-Term Results
By week two, most signs of surgery have resolved, and patients begin enjoying their refreshed appearance. The carefully placed incisions continue to fade over several months, becoming virtually imperceptible. The results of upper blepharoplasty typically last for many years, though the natural aging process continues.
The ideal candidates for Ellevate Lid Lift are individuals who experience aesthetic or functional concerns related to their upper eyelids. Through our signature technique, we address common conditions including excess eyelid skin that creates a heavy appearance, difficulty applying makeup due to overhanging skin, or visual field obstruction from drooping upper eyelids. Our patients range from young adults in their 20s seeking upper eyelid surgery for enhanced eye definition or correction of inherited traits, to older adults in their 40s and beyond addressing age-related changes like skin laxity and drooping. During your consultation, Dr. Jayaram carefully evaluates factors such as skin elasticity, underlying muscle tone, and fat distribution to determine the most appropriate Ellevate Lid Lift surgical approach.
Aesthetic Improvements
Modern upper blepharoplasty techniques address multiple aspects of eyelid aging, including excess upper eyelid skin, drooping eyelids, and fatty deposits. The result is a more alert, refreshed appearance that looks completely natural. Unlike more invasive procedures such as a full brow lift, upper eyelid surgery provides targeted rejuvenation with minimal downtime.
Functional Enhancements
Many patients find that removing excess eyelid skin improves their peripheral vision and makes daily activities like applying makeup significantly easier. This functional improvement can be particularly dramatic for those who previously experienced visual field obstruction due to overhanging upper eyelid skin.
Long-Term Value
While lower eyelid surgery might be necessary for some patients to address under-eye concerns or lower eyelid bags, upper blepharoplasty alone often provides dramatic improvement in overall facial appearance. The results typically last for many years, making it a worthwhile investment in both appearance and function.
