The Procedure
A blepharoplasty procedure ranges from 1-3 hours and the patient is placed under local or general anesthesia. Incisions are created in the creases of the upper eyelids and/or below the lashes of the lower eyelids to minimize visible scarring. Excess fat and drooping muscle or skin is removed from the area. In instances where there is no drooping skin to be removed, the doctor may make an incision just below the lower lash to remove the excess fat.Â
Ideal Candidate
You should be an adult in good general health, preferably a non-smoker, without predetermined serious eye conditions. Patients undergoing this procedure should have realistic expectations for the results after surgery and be ready to maintain a healthy lifestyle and follow the medical team’s instructions for recovery and beyond.
