Blepharoplasty is an eyelid surgery procedure that improves droopy eyelids, excess skin, eye bags, and tired-looking eyes by removing or repositioning eyelid skin and fat. In Malaysia, options include upper eyelid surgery, lower eyelid surgery, double eyelid surgery, or combined procedures. The best approach depends on facial anatomy, eyelid condition, and desired results.
