Eyelid Surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, is a surgical procedure performed at BeautyFix Plastic Surgery to enhance the appearance of the eyelids. This procedure can be performed on either the lower eyelids, the upper eyelids or in some instances both. The goal of this procedure is typically to rejuvenate the appearance of the eyelids, sometimes for functionality purposes.
There are a few different methods your surgeon may opt to use during your eyelid surgery, depending on what your surgical goals are. The upper eyelid can typically be corrected and rejuvenated through an incision that falls in the crease of the eye. Lower eyelids can typically be corrected through an incision right under the lower lash line. Incisions will typically be closed either with medical glue or sutures, which will be removed after one week. For eyelid surgery that involves distributing or removing excess fat in the under eye, no incision is needed. Prior to receiving this surgery, you may be required to complete an eye exam to ensure that your eyes are healthy.
Eyelid surgery works to rejuvenate the appearance of the face and in some cases improve vision by removing excess skin from the upper or lower eyelids. Some eyelid surgeries will involve redistributing the existing fat in the face or removing excess.
Eyelid surgery can treat a number of cosmetic concerns relating to the appearance of the eyes. Some common reasons people get eyelid surgery are for droopy lower eyelids, bags under the eyes, puffy looking under eyes caused by fat deposits, excess skin that hangs down and impairs the natural contours of the eyelids. In some instances, a person may get eyelid surgery because their eyelids are sagging to the point where it is impairing their vision.
A good candidate for this procedure is typically someone who is in good health, has realistic goals for the surgery and does not have any serious eye conditions.
Yes, this surgery is performed as an outpatient procedure and may be performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia, depending on the details of the procedure.
