Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)
Two locations to serve New York City & Greater New York (Tri-State area)

The area around your eyes ages quickly, particularly the eyelids, which can accumulate excess skin over time due to frequent blinking. This can lead to heaviness, causing tired eyes by evening and making makeup application more challenging.

Additionally, the fat surrounding the eyes can protrude outward with age, resulting in puffiness or eye bags and giving a tired or sad appearance.

Personalized evaluation & tailored solutions

At SYA, our approach starts with a comprehensive facial analysis, pinpointing your unique concerns. SYA’s surgeons ensure that treatment is aligned with your anatomy and desired outcomes. Whether addressing skin, fat, muscle issues in eyelids or correcting eyebrow sagging, our evaluation ensures a personalized solution to leave the natural shape and beauty of your eyes untouched while removing the signs of aging. We utilize computer imaging for potential transformations and inform you about additional procedures for safety.

  • Sutures, if present, are removed within 3-7 days.
  • Pain medication or Tylenol suffices.

What our patients say...

"I had eye bag issue for many years and had visited some plastic surgeons, but was scarred and concerned, couldn't make my mind until I came to SY Aesthetics where I saw Dr. Yager. I am so impressed by Dr. Yager's medical knowledge, experience, and kindness. The surgery went very well, no pain medication needed at all after the surgery. I went back to work 6 days after the procedure. In addition, the office staff at SY Aesthetics are so nice and very helpful. I am so happy about the results. Highly recommend.”
