FAQ

What is Blepharoplasty?

Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure designed to rejuvenate the appearance of the upper and lower eyelids by removing excess skin, fat, and, in some cases, correcting muscle laxity. It is ideal for individuals who want a more refreshed and youthful look.

Types of Blepharoplasty

There are different techniques depending on the patient’s needs:

🔹 Upper Blepharoplasty: Focuses on correcting excess skin and fat in the upper eyelids, perfect for those with droopy eyelids that may even affect vision.

🔹 Lower Blepharoplasty: Removes fat bags and improves sagging in the lower eyelids, reducing puffiness and tired-looking eyes.

🔹 Transconjunctival Blepharoplasty: A minimally invasive technique used for patients with lower eyelid bags, without any visible external incisions.

🔹 Laser Blepharoplasty: Uses laser technology to perform the surgery with less bleeding and a faster recovery time.

Benefits of Blepharoplasty

🔹 Rejuvenates the eyes and overall facial appearance.

🔹 Reduces the appearance of tiredness.

🔹 Corrects vision problems caused by excess skin on the upper eyelids.

🔹 Minimal scarring and long-lasting results.

🔹 Boosts confidence and personal satisfaction.

Things to Consider Before Surgery

🔹 It is not a procedure to remove dark circles or fine wrinkles around the eyes.

🔹 Recovery time is approximately 1-2 weeks.

🔹 It is crucial to choose a board-certified plastic surgeon to ensure safety and the best possible results.

What is the procedure like?

The process begins with a personalized evaluation to determine the best technique based on the patient’s needs. During the surgery:

  1. Local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia is administered, depending on the case.

  2. Small incisions are made along the natural creases of the eyelids to minimize visible scarring.

  3. Excess fat is removed or repositioned, and the skin and muscles are adjusted as needed.

  4. The incisions are closed with fine sutures for optimal healing.

  5. The patient is monitored before being discharged the same day.

Who is a good candidate for blepharoplasty?

Good candidates are individuals who are in good health, have realistic expectations, and are bothered by excess skin or puffiness around their eyes. It is also suitable for those experiencing vision problems due to drooping eyelids.

Is blepharoplasty painful?

The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation, meaning you won’t feel pain during the surgery. Some discomfort, swelling, and bruising are common in the days following the procedure but are generally manageable with medication.

What type of anesthesia is used?

The surgery can be performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the complexity of the procedure and patient preference.

How long does the surgery take?

The procedure typically takes between 1 and 3 hours, depending on whether it involves the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both.

How long is the recovery after blepharoplasty?

Recovery time varies, but most people can resume normal activities within 7-10 days. Swelling and bruising may take a few weeks to fully subside, and the final results are typically visible after 3-6 months.

What are the post-surgery care instructions?

  • Apply cold compresses to reduce swelling and bruising.

  • Avoid strenuous physical activities for at least 10 days.

  • Wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from sunlight and wind.

  • Keep your head elevated while sleeping for the first few days.

  • Follow medical instructions regarding the use of ointments or eye drops.

Are there any risks associated with blepharoplasty?

As with any surgery, blepharoplasty carries some risks, such as infection, scarring, or changes in vision. However, these complications are rare when performed by an experienced surgeon.

How Should I Prepare for Blepharoplasty?

Preparing for your Blepharoplasty is a crucial step in ensuring a smooth and successful procedure. Proper preparation helps minimize risks and promotes a faster recovery. Follow these essential steps to get ready for your procedure:

  • Consult your surgeon and follow all instructions.
  • Avoid alcohol and smoking at least two weeks before surgery.
