Question 1

What does a blepharoplasty surgery involve?

Accepted Answer

It involves the resection of excess eyelid skin and associated fat bags. The scars made for the upper eyelids are hidden in the natural eyelid crease, making them invisible over time. For the lower eyelids, incisions can be placed at the eyelash line or, more frequently, inside them, without visible scars.

The surgical procedure can be performed only on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or by combining both. It is also common to combine it with another facial rejuvenation technique, lipofilling or fat filling, in the nasojugal groove and cheekbones to improve dark circles and provide greater structural support to the periocular area.

Question 2

What do I have to do in the first few days after the blepharoplasty surgery?

Accepted Answer

We will closely monitor your progress, providing you with treatment guidelines and taking care of your healing. You should rest your eyes for 2-3 days and sleep in a semi-upright position.

Question 3

Will I experience pain after the blepharoplasty surgery?

Accepted Answer

It is normal to experience swelling in the first few days and a sensation of grittiness in the eyes, but you will not experience pain.

Question 4

When can I resume my daily activities after the blepharoplasty surgery?
