Do you have hanging skin above or under the eyes or bags under the eyes? Have you tried every cream and tightener on the market with no change of the bags or excess skin? If you’ve tried everything to improve the appearance of your eyes, then blepharoplasty or eyelid surgery may be for you. Eyelid surgery or blepharoplasty was the fourth most popular surgery in 2016 according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. So, if the eyes are the doorways to our soul then we want to look rested and fresh-faced!
Eyelid or blepharoplasty surgery removes excess skin and fat to give a more rested and youthful appearance. Upper eyelid surgery focuses on removing excess skin to upper eyes. The scar is placed in the crease of the upper eyelid. Lower eyelid surgery involves removing excess skin and fat to the lower eyelid to help address “bags” under the eyes. The scars for lower eyelid surgery are hidden at the base of the eyelid where your eyeliner is placed. The upper blepharoplasty or lower blepharoplasty surgery can be performed together or separately depending on your needs to achieve the best aesthetic outcome.
You will have stitches following upper and lower blepharoplasty surgery that stay in place for 1 week. You can have bruising and swelling that can be present for 7-10 days following surgery. You can return to work at approximately 7-10 days following upper and lower blepharoplasty.
