MODEL RELEASED. Cosmetic eyelid surgery. Image 3 of 8. Local anaesthetic being injected into the upper eyelid of a middle-aged man before cosmetic eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty). With age,skin loses its elasticity and muscles slacken. When this happens around the eyes it results in puffiness and drooping eyelids. Blepharoplasty is a procedure that removes excess skin,fat and muscles from the upper and/or lower eyelids. This leaves the patient looking younger and less tired. The surgery is being performed under local anaesthetic,as a day procedure. As with all surgery there is a risk of infection,excessive bleeding and other complications,including blindness.
