About
Eyelid surgery, also called Blepharoplasty is a surgical procedure performed to remove the excess skin, wrinkles and fatty deposits from upper and lower eyelids. This is done to eliminate dark circles and bags and correct lower eyelid droopiness.
The best candidates for eyelid surgery are individuals in good health who are non-smokers and have realistic expectations about the results from surgery. The results are generally long lasting, continued aging over time can cause forehead skin to sag resulting in the appearance of eyelid drooping.
The typical surgery that includes both the upper and lower eyelids generally takes about 2 hours. You can opt receive local anesthetic, oral or intravenous sedation. The upper eyelid surgery is generally done first with the lower eyelid surgery following it. Post-operatively you will likely experience bruising and swelling and possibly experience sensitivity to light and blurry vision.
