Frequently Asked Questions
What is blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of excess skin, fat, and sometimes muscle from the upper and/or lower eyelids. It’s performed to rejuvenate the appearance of the eyes and correct issues such as drooping eyelids and under-eye bags.
Who is a good candidate for blepharoplasty?
Good candidates for blepharoplasty are individuals with sagging or drooping eyelids, excess skin or fat in the eyelid area, and those who wish to achieve a more refreshed and youthful appearance.
What is the difference between upper and lower blepharoplasty?
Upper blepharoplasty addresses concerns with the upper eyelids, including excess skin that may droop over the eyelashes. Lower blepharoplasty targets under-eye bags caused by excess fat deposits and sagging skin.
Is blepharoplasty a cosmetic or medical procedure?
Blepharoplasty can be both cosmetic and medical. While it’s commonly performed for aesthetic reasons, upper eyelid blepharoplasty can also be medically necessary if excess skin impairs vision.
How is the procedure performed?
During the surgery, incisions are made in the natural creases of the eyelids. Excess skin, fat, and sometimes muscle are removed or repositioned. The incisions are then closed with sutures.
Is blepharoplasty performed under local or general anesthesia?
Blepharoplasty can be performed under local anesthesia with sedation or under general anesthesia, depending on the extent of the procedure and the patient’s comfort level.
What is the recovery time after blepharoplasty?
Recovery varies, but most patients experience swelling and bruising for about a week. Sutures are typically removed within a week. Patients can usually return to work within 1-2 weeks.
Are there risks associated with blepharoplasty?
Like any surgery, blepharoplasty carries risks such as infection, bleeding, scarring, and changes in sensation. Consulting with a skilled surgeon can help minimize these risks.
