The Benefits of Eyelid Lift

An eyelid lift, also known as blepharoplasty, is a cosmetic surgery procedure that involves removing excess skin, fat, and muscle from the upper or lower eyelids to create a more youthful, alert, and refreshed appearance. This can be a great way to overcome cosmetic issues that are often a result of the natural aging process.

Our patients love the eyelid lift for the following reasons:

An enhanced appearance
Long-lasting results
Reduced puffiness
Improved vision
Minimal scarring

What is the difference between upper and lower eyelid lift surgery?

Upper eyelid lift surgery focuses on addressing drooping or hooded upper eyelids by removing excess skin and fat, while lower eyelid lift surgery targets under-eye bags and wrinkles by removing or redistributing fat and tightening the skin.

What can I expect during the recovery period after an eyelid lift?

The recovery period after an eyelid lift typically involves some swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort around the eyes. Patients are advised to rest with their heads elevated, apply cold compresses to reduce swelling, and avoid strenuous activities for the first week or two after surgery. Most individuals can resume normal activities within a couple of weeks, although complete healing may take several months.

How long do the results of an eyelid lift last?

The results of an eyelid lift are long-lasting, but they are not permanent. While the aging process will continue, many patients enjoy the benefits of their eyelid lift for years before considering additional procedures. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and protecting the skin from sun damage can help prolong the results.

Will eyelid lift surgery affect my vision?

Eyelid lift surgery is primarily performed for cosmetic purposes, but it can also improve vision in cases where sagging eyelid skin obstructs the visual field. Your surgeon will assess your individual situation and discuss any potential vision-related benefits of the procedure during your consultation.
