Eye lift surgery, also known as blepharoplasty, is a cosmetic surgical procedure aimed at rejuvenating the appearance of the eyes by removing excess skin, fat, and muscle tissue from the upper and/or lower eyelids. It can address concerns such as drooping or hooded upper eyelids, puffy or baggy lower eyelids, under-eye hollows, and fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes.

Suitable candidates for blepharoplasty are individuals bothered by visible signs of aging around the eyes and seek to achieve a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

Candidates should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the outcome of the procedure.

During the consultation, you will meet with a board-certified plastic surgeon who will evaluate your eye anatomy, discuss your goals and concerns, and explain the blepharoplasty procedure in detail.

Your surgeon will assess your candidacy for surgery and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan to achieve your desired results.

Blepharoplasty techniques vary depending on the specific concerns addressed and the desired outcome. Common techniques include upper eyelid blepharoplasty, lower eyelid blepharoplasty, or a combination of both.

Your surgeon will recommend the most suitable technique based on your specific goals, anatomy, and preferences.

Like any surgical procedure, blepharoplasty carries risks, including infection, bleeding, adverse reaction to anesthesia, dry eyes, temporary or permanent changes in eyelid position or function, asymmetry, scarring, and dissatisfaction with the results.

Your surgeon will discuss these risks with you during the consultation and provide guidance on how to minimize them.

The recovery process varies depending on the extent of the procedure and individual healing factors. Patients typically experience some degree of swelling, bruising, and discomfort around the eyes, which typically subsides within a few weeks.

Most patients can resume normal activities within a week or two, with full results becoming apparent once the swelling has completely resolved.

The results of blepharoplasty are intended to be long-lasting, providing patients with a more youthful and refreshed appearance around the eyes.

With proper care and maintenance, many patients enjoy their blepharoplasty results for many years, leading to increased satisfaction with their appearance.

The cost of blepharoplasty varies depending on factors such as the surgeon's experience, geographic location, facility fees, anesthesia fees, and the extent of the procedure.

During the consultation, your surgeon will provide you with a personalized quote that outlines the total cost of the procedure, including any additional fees or expenses.
