What is Blepharoplasty?

This procedure removes sagging skin, reduces the appearance of puffiness and bags under the eyes, and creates a more youthful and refreshed look. It’s popular for patients concerned about the signs of aging around the eyes and those with inherited genetic traits that make them more prone to developing bags or excess skin in this area.

How Blepharoplasty Works

Blepharoplasty is typically performed under local anesthesia. During the procedure, the surgeon will make small incisions in the eyelid area and remove excess skin and fat before closing the incisions. In some cases, the surgeon may also use laser technology to help tighten the skin around the eyes and improve the area's overall appearance.

The Benefits of Blepharoplasty

  • Improves appearance
  • Enhances vision when excess skin on the upper eyelid interferes with vision, making it difficult to see
  • Boosts self-confidence and self-esteem, leading to a more positive outlook on life
  • Long-lasting results
  • It can be tailored to meet each patient's unique needs and goals, ensuring that the procedure is personalized to achieve the best possible results

Your Recovery Process

Recovering from blepharoplasty typically takes around two weeks, during which patients may experience swelling and bruising around the eyes. It is important to avoid strenuous activities during this period to ensure complete healing, and exercise should be postponed for three to four weeks. Most patients can return to work within a week of the procedure.

Naturally Beautiful Results

Upper and lower blepharoplasty results can be seen almost immediately following the procedure. Patients often report a more youthful and refreshed appearance, with reduced sagging skin, puffiness, and bags around the eyes. Many patients also experience improved vision and reduced eye fatigue. With proper care and maintenance, the results of blepharoplasty can be long-lasting, helping patients look and feel their best for years to come.
