BEFORE & AFTER PHOTOS

DETAILS

Many adults request eyelid surgery to correct problems that result from aging, or from heredity. Also called blepharoplasty, cosmetic eyelid surgery is performed on the upper or lower eyelids, with the goal of restoring firmness to the eye area. The result provides the appearance of being better rested and more alert.

Some of the problems that eyelid surgery can help include:

	Loose skin that hangs down from the upper eyelid. This skin may hide the natural contour of the upper eyelid, or impair vision.
	Puffiness in the upper eyelids caused by fatty deposits.
	Bags and dark circles under the eyes.
	Droopiness in the lower eyelids that pull down and reveal the white below the iris.
	Excess skin and wrinkles of the lower eyelid

PROCEDURE

During upper eyelid surgery, an incision will be made within the natural fold of the upper eyelid. This will allow the surgeon to remove excess skin, muscle and fatty tissue. Because the incision in made in the fold, it will be hidden and the incision mark will not show.

When operating on the lower lid, an incision is made in the area just below the lower lash line, so that the mark will be hidden. Excess skin and fatty tissue are removed through the incision. Sometimes the fat will be redistributed to eliminate bulging or puffiness. Laser resurfacing may be used to smooth the lower lid skin.

RECOVERY

After your surgery, you will experience swelling and bruising. These usually subside within 7 – 10 days. Your vision may be blurry for a few days. Some people have sensitivity to light, eye dryness, burning or itching. In general, you can expect this discomfort to subside within two weeks. In about 1 – 3 months, you can expect the final results of a more rested and refreshed look. The incision lines will continue to become less visible over a period of about one year.
