Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty, or eyelid surgery, refreshes and redefines the area around your eyes by smoothing loose skin and reducing puffiness or sagging. The result is a brighter, more awake appearance that restores your natural expression and helps you look as energized as you feel.

The Highlights of Blepharoplasty

Overview

Excess skin, muscle, and fat are removed from the upper or lower eyelids through small incisions placed along the creases, resulting in minimal scarring once closed and bandaged.

Recovery

Medium recovery with manageable downtime. Most people return to normal routines within 2 weeks as swelling and bruising fade, and following aftercare instructions ensures smooth healing.

Results

As swelling fades, your eyes start to look smoother and more open. The skin around them softens and brightens, and over the first few weeks, you’ll notice a fresher, natural look taking shape.

Are You a Good Candidate for Blepharoplasty?

You may be a good candidate if you:

  1. You have drooping upper eyelids that make you look tired or affect your vision.
  2. You notice puffiness or bags under your eyes that do not improve with rest.
  3. You are in good overall health and a non-smoker.
  4. You want to refresh your eyes without changing your natural look.
  5. You have realistic expectations about the improvement.

Week 1

Swelling and mild bruising are normal. Cold compresses and keeping the head elevated can help reduce swelling and support healing, and most people routine to light activities within a few days.

Weeks 2-4

Bruising and swelling fade dramatically. Most patients return to social activities and light exercise, using makeup as needed to cover any remaining discoloration.

3 Months+

The eyes look brighter, smoother, and more youthful. Incisions are fully healed and nearly invisible, leaving no trace of the procedure.
