Blepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)

HomeSurgical TreatmentsBlepharoplasty (Eyelid Surgery)
Blepharoplasty rejuvenates the eyes by removing excess skin, fat, and muscle from the eyelids, reducing droopiness and under-eye bags.

Condition Addressed

Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, is performed to address both cosmetic and functional concerns related to the upper and lower eyelids. This procedure is commonly sought by individuals experiencing excess skin on the upper or lower eyelids (dermatochalasis), drooping eyelids (ptosis), under-eye bags, puffiness, or sagging that can make the eyes appear tired, aged, or obstruct vision. Blepharoplasty can also correct conditions such as entropion (inward-turning eyelid), ectropion (outward-turning eyelid), and remove benign growths or xanthelasma (cholesterol deposits) around the eyes. Functionally, the surgery can significantly improve peripheral vision when excess skin encroaches on the visual field, and it may relieve symptoms like eye irritation, tearing, or difficulty wearing glasses due to eyelid abnormalities.

Downtime

Downtime following blepharoplasty is generally moderate, with most patients experiencing swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort for the first week after surgery. Pain is usually well controlled with prescribed medication, and cold compresses are recommended to minimize swelling and bruising. Most individuals are able to return to work and light activities within seven to ten days, though strenuous activity and heavy lifting should be avoided for at least two weeks. It is important to keep the head elevated while resting and to protect the eyes from sun exposure by wearing sunglasses. Initial improvements in eye appearance are noticeable within two weeks, but subtle swelling and minor bruising may persist for several weeks.

Outcomes

Outcomes of blepharoplasty are highly favorable, with most patients reporting significant improvements in both appearance and function. The procedure can expand the visual field, reduce headaches caused by eyelid heaviness, and enhance satisfaction with facial aesthetics. Patients often experience a boost in psychological and social well-being, as the eyes appear more rested, open, and youthful. Adverse effects are minimal and typically resolve with time, while the benefits-such as improved vision, reduced eye fatigue, and a rejuvenated appearance-are long-lasting.

frequently asked questions

What is blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure that removes or repositions excess skin, fat, or muscle from the upper and/or lower eyelids to reduce drooping, puffiness, and under-eye bags, and to create a more refreshed and youthful appearance.
Who is a good candidate for blepharoplasty?
Suitable candidates include individuals with droopy or sagging eyelids, puffiness, under-eye bags, or excess upper eyelid skin that impairs vision. A consultation with a qualified surgeon is necessary to assess your suitability.
What is the difference between upper and lower blepharoplasty?
Upper blepharoplasty focuses on removing or tightening sagging skin and tissue on the upper eyelids, often to improve vision and restore a more open look. Lower blepharoplasty targets bags and puffiness beneath the eyes, usually caused by fat herniation or loose skin.
How long does the blepharoplasty procedure take?
An upper or lower blepharoplasty generally takes less than one hour to complete, and patients typically go home the same day.
What is the typical recovery process after blepharoplasty?
Most patients experience swelling and bruising for one to two weeks. You may return to work or normal activities within 7-14 days, but full healing and final results may take several weeks.
How long do the results of blepharoplasty last?
The results are long-lasting, with most patients enjoying a more youthful appearance for about 10 years. However, the natural aging process will continue after surgery.
What are the risks or complications of blepharoplasty?
Risks include infection, bleeding, dry or irritated eyes, difficulty closing the eyes, scarring, changes in eyelid position, and rarely, vision changes or loss. Most complications are uncommon when performed by an experienced surgeon.
Will there be visible scars after blepharoplasty?
Incisions are typically made in the natural creases of the eyelids or inside the lower lid, making scars minimal and usually well-hidden.
Can blepharoplasty be combined with other procedures?
Yes, it is common to combine blepharoplasty with procedures such as brow lift, facelift, or skin resurfacing for more comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
Is blepharoplasty covered by insurance?
Insurance may cover blepharoplasty if the surgery is performed to correct vision impairment caused by excess eyelid skin. Cosmetic procedures done solely for appearance are usually not covered.
