The eyes are often the first feature to show signs of aging—but they’re also one of the easiest areas to refresh with subtle, transformative results. Upper blepharoplasty is a popular eyelid surgery that reduces sagging, lifts the upper eyelids, and creates a more awake, youthful appearance. See how this procedure can rejuvenate your look at every age with our favorite upper blepharoplasty before and after pictures below.
Subtle Refinement in Your 40s
Spotlight #1
This 49-year-old patient already had a remarkably youthful appearance but wanted to address minor signs of aging before they became more pronounced. Dr. Boggess performed an upper blepharoplasty with a brow lift, complemented by fat transfer, a facelift, and CO2 laser skin resurfacing.
As you can see, her before and after photos reveal subtle but meaningful refinement. The skin around her eyes looks smoother and more defined, with a gentle lift that enhances her natural features—proof that facial plastic surgery doesn’t have to be dramatic to make a difference.
Spotlight #2
This male patient, aged 48, came to our practice feeling self-conscious about his tired appearance, which didn’t match how he felt. He had brow ptosis, hooded upper eyelids, prominent bags under his eyes, and sagging in the jawline and neck.
To address his concerns, I designed a two-stage facial rejuvenation plan. The first stage included upper and lower blepharoplasty, a brow lift, and fat transfer. Six weeks later, the second stage included a facelift and CO2 laser resurfacing.
Our patient’s before and after photos show a dramatic change. The upper eyelid surgery opened his eye area, making him look more alert and confident—an outstanding example of how men, too, can benefit from expertly performed blepharoplasty.
A Balanced, Natural Look in Your 50s
Spotlight #3
This 50-year-old patient struggled with asymmetrical eyelid sagging, particularly on the right side. I performed a standalone upper blepharoplasty, resulting in a beautifully balanced, natural-looking appearance. Her transformation demonstrates how even a single targeted procedure can create harmony and bring the focus back to the eyes.
Spotlight #4
This 55-year-old patient’s goals included reducing upper eyelid hooding, facial wrinkles, and sagging in the neck and jawline. Dr. Boggess performed an upper blepharoplasty, brow lift, and full face and neck lift. Her eyes are now brighter and more open, and the lift around her upper lids draws attention back to her natural beauty. The improvement is especially noticeable in how alert and refreshed she looks without appearing “overdone.”
Refreshed, Not Overworked, in Your 60s
Spotlight #5
For this patient, aged 60, I combined upper blepharoplasty, a brow lift, a facelift, and CO2 laser resurfacing to create a more radiant, youthful look. The area around her eyes and forehead appears smoother, with lines softened and eyelids lifted, demonstrating how upper blepharoplasty contributes significantly to a refreshed and polished overall appearance.
Reclaiming Radiance in Your 70s & 80s

Stunning facial rejuvenation is still possible in your 70s and 80s! Expertly performed eyelid surgery can restore definition, smooth away years of fatigue, and help you feel as vibrant on the outside as you do within!
This 76-year-old patient wanted to reduce eyelid hooding and achieve a more youthful facial contour. Her customized procedure plan included upper blepharoplasty, a facelift, and CO2 fractional laser resurfacing.
