If you're considering having Eyelid Surgery (blepharoplasty), the following information will provide you with a good introduction to the procedure.

Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) can improve drooping upper eyelids and puffy bags under your eyes and give you a younger look by removing fat and excess skin and muscle from the upper and lower eyelids. However, eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) cannot remove crows’ feet or other wrinkles, or eliminate dark circles under your eyes. Asians can also create double eyelids by adding a crease on the upper eyelids

How is eyelid surgery performed?

The incisions are made along the natural lines of your eyelids; in the upper eyelid creases, and just below the lower eyelashes. The incisions may extend into the crow's feet or laugh lines at the outer corners of your eyes. Next the surgeon separates the skin from the underlying tissue and muscle and removes excess fat and trims sagging skin and muscle. 

How long will the surgery take?

Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) usually takes one to three hours, depending on the extent of the surgery.

Will anesthesia be used?

Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) is usually performed under local anesthesia, which numbs the area around your eyes. You'll be awake during the surgery, but relaxed and will not feel pain..

Is the surgery an inpatient or outpatient procedure?

Eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) is an outpatient procedure which means you can leave the hospital shortly after the surgery.

Am I a candidate for eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty)?

If you have sagging upper eyelids or bags under the eyes or if you wish to have 'double eyelid', then you are likely to be a good candidate for eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty). In addition, you are a better candidate if you are physically healthy, psychologically stable and have realistic expectations. The following medical conditions make eyelid surgery more risky: thyroid problems such as hypothyroidism and Graves’ disease, dry eyes, lack of sufficient tears, high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and detached retina or glaucoma.

How do I prepare for eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty)?

You must stop smoking tobacco products, consuming alcohol, taking any medications and vitamins 2 weeks before the date of the surgery. In addition, you must fast 8 hours before the surgery which means you should not eat anything on the day of the surgery.
It is also important that you understand the procedure and the potential risk and complications.

How will the scar look after eyelide surgery (blepharoplasty)?

Your scars may remain slightly pink for six months or more after surgery. Eventually, though, they'll fade to a thin, nearly invisible white line.

What side effects can I expect from eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty)?

Your eyelids may feel tight and sore after surgery but any discomfort can be controlled with pain relief medication. Bruising varies from person to person but typically lasts from 2 weeks to a month. The surgeon will tell you to keep your head elevated for several days and use cold compress to reduce swelling and bruising.

How is the recovery after eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty)?

You will be able to read and watch television after 2-3 days and the first 3-4 days you should take as much rest as possible. Most people feel ready to go to back to work within 7-10 days. Your eyes may be sensitive to sunlight and other irritations for several weeks, so it is recommended that you wear sunglasses and special sun block. More strenuous activities should be avoided for about 3 weeks. The surgeon will tell you everything you need to know about post-surgery recovery and it is important that you follow his advice closely to ensure optimal healing.

Is the result permanent?

Yes. However, natural changes caused by aging cannot be avoided.

What are the risks and complications?

Complications following eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty) are rare and usually minor, but as with any kind of surgery there are certain risks and complications associated with eyelid surgery. Possible complications include double blurred vision for a few days, temporary swelling and slight asymmetry in healing or scarring. Another very rare complication is ectropion, a pulling down of the lower lids. The risk of complications arising can be reduced if you follow the surgeon’s advice closely.
