What does Blepharoplasty entail?
Upper Blepharoplasty
Upper blepharoplasty addresses drooping or hooded upper eyelids that may impair vision or create a tired appearance. Dr. Chang removes excess skin and fat to create a natural, refreshed look.
Lower Blepharoplasty
Lower blepharoplasty targets under-eye bags and sagging lower eyelids. Dr. Chang carefully removes or repositions fat deposits, tightens the skin, and may perform additional procedures like laser resurfacing to reduce fine lines and wrinkles.
Am I A Candidate for Eyelid Surgery?
There are many reasons to consider eyelid surgery. For example, patients who have loose skin on the upper or lower eyelids are generally great candidates.
You may also be a good candidate for blepharoplasty if:
- You have loose skin that folds and impacts the natural contour of the eye
- You have loose or sagging eyelids that impair vision
- You have fatty deposits that cause puffiness and bags
- You have droopiness of either the upper, lower, or both eyelids
The best way to determine if you’re a candidate for blepharoplasty is to schedule a consultation with board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Catherine Chang, MD, FACS.
What to Expect After Surgery
After eyelid surgery, you will experience mild discomfort around your eyes. Your eyes may feel tender and warm, and you may also experience blurred vision and temporary minor sight impairments during the first day after the procedure. This is more common with lower eyelid surgery.
These symptoms can last up to a week post-op. Cold compress can be used to decrease swelling. It’s also important to sleep with your head elevated while also limiting physical activity.
Avoid straining your eyes as much as possible. Activities such as reading, watching TV, or looking at any kind of screen can cause eye strain. You’ll also want to be mindful of rubbing your eyes, even when they itch, as this can affect the incisions and may cause further discomfort and swelling.
Initial swelling and bruising typically subsides after 1-2 weeks. You can expect to see final results in about 6 to 8 months.
Most patients return to work and normal daily activities after a week. However, you should refrain from strenuous exercise for at least three weeks. This provides plenty of time for swelling to go down while also allowing stitches to fully dissolve.
