What is Eyelid Surgery (Blepharoplasty)?
Eyelid surgery, or blepharoplasty, is a procedure to surgically correct excess skin, muscle, and fat in the eyelids. This surgery can be performed on both the upper and lower eyelids. As a result of aging, sagging, puffiness, and a tired appearance can occur around the eyes. Eyelid surgery is a popular cosmetic procedure that aims to provide a younger, more refreshed look.

Why is Eyelid Surgery Performed?
Sagging Upper Eyelids: Drooping upper eyelids can obstruct vision and may be aesthetically undesirable.
Puffiness in Lower Eyelids: Puffiness and eyebags under the eyes can create a tired and aged appearance.
Cosmetic Enhancement: Eyelid surgery rejuvenates the overall appearance of the face, creating a more youthful look around the eyes.
Who is a Candidate for Eyelid Surgery?
Eyelid surgery is most commonly performed on individuals aged 35 and older. However, due to genetic factors, younger individuals may also choose to undergo this procedure. In some cases, sagging eyelids that interfere with vision can make the surgery a medical necessity.
The Surgical Process
Pre-Examination: Before surgery, a comprehensive eye examination is conducted. Excess skin, muscle, and fat in the eyelids are analyzed, and a surgical plan is developed.
Surgery: Eyelid surgery is usually performed under local anesthesia and takes about 1-2 hours. If both upper and lower eyelids are being treated, the procedure may take slightly longer.
Post-Surgery Recovery: After surgery, mild bruising and swelling around the eyes may occur. Recovery typically begins within the first week, and results gradually become visible.
