Why Men Seek Blepharoplasty

As men age, they may develop "dermatochalasis," which is the condition where excess skin forms on the upper or lower eyelids. This can make them appear tired, stressed, or older than they feel. Blepharoplasty for men is designed to address these concerns by removing excess skin or fat, which helps open up the eyes and restore a more rested and youthful appearance. By making small, precise adjustments to the eyelids, Dr. Leong can enhance the overall facial aesthetics without compromising a masculine look. In fact, eyelid surgery is often the second most requested cosmetic procedure among men, particularly in the baby boomer generation.

Tailored Eyelid Surgery for Men: What’s Different?

While the general goals of eyelid surgery for both men and women are similar—creating a more youthful and refreshed look—there are key differences when it comes to the desired outcome. Men often prefer a more conservative approach that preserves their natural, masculine features. For example, most men want to avoid a prominent eyelid crease, which is more common in women who may use the crease for makeup application.

Men typically desire a subtle, natural result that doesn't leave any obvious signs of surgery. Additionally, the shape and position of eyebrows differ between men and women, and this is an important consideration when performing eyelid or brow surgeries. Men tend to have lower, straighter, and thicker eyebrows with minimal arch, while women often have higher, narrower eyebrows with a more defined arch. Dr. Leong takes these masculine features into account, ensuring that the surgical outcome aligns with your desired look.

Surgical Scars: Minimizing Visibility for Men

One common concern among men considering eyelid surgery is the visibility of scars. Fortunately, the incisions made during upper eyelid surgery are typically hidden within the natural fold of the eyelid, making scars difficult to detect. However, when it comes to lower eyelid surgery, the risk of visible scarring can be higher, especially since men may find it more challenging to conceal scars with makeup, as many women do. To minimize this concern, Dr. Leong often employs a transconjunctival approach for lower blepharoplasty. This technique involves making the incision inside the lower eyelid, rather than below the lashes, which eliminates any visible external scarring. This approach is particularly effective for men, as it preserves the natural contours of the lower eyelid and results in a more discreet recovery process.
