Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery)

Both upper and lower  eyelids will sag and have visible fat pockets which will give the eyes a tired, heavy or unhappy appearance.  Blepharoplasty helps rejuvenate the eyelids by eliminating the visible fat pockets  removing the excess skin.

Both upper and lower blepharoplasty is performed with local anesthesia on an outpatient basis.  The  eyelids will be taped for the first 5 days at which point they will be removed and the sutures will also be removed.   There is minimal discomfort.  The  bruising last for 5-7 days.   Patients can return to full activity in 10 days.  It will take 6 months to obtain the final result.
