Benefits of Blepharoplasty Surgery
Escape the effects of aging on the eyelids that can sag and droop with time. A solution to both correct the appearance of eyelids that have altered your appearance and also interfere with your line of vision is blepharoplasty surgery. Whether it is your upper eyelid that has created these issues or your lower eyelid, blepharoplasty can correct both aspects and provides an overall solution to problems with the eyes.
It’s possible to get rid of this problem. The cure is blepharoplasty – eyelid surgery.
Who is a good candidate for blepharoplasty eyelid surgery?
If you have healthy facial tissue and muscles, do not smoke and are not fighting a life threatening disease at the time that you are considering the eyelid surgery – you are a good candidate for blepharoplasty eyelid surgery. You can expect to improve upper and/or lower eyelids and the surrounding area. If you also decide to do a forehead lift you can expect to improve your peripheral vision too.
If you feel that your eyelids are very heavy and interfering with your vision, explore the option of eyelid surgery with your doctor.
What does blepharoplasty repair and correct?
Chances are that YOU need a blepharoplasty if YOU have noticed these symptoms:
Upper eyelids are puffy
Eye wrinkles on the upper eyelids that interfere with your ability to see things clearly
Increased fine wrinkles of the lower eyelids
Heavy bags under both eyes
Droopy lower eyelids
What to expect following blepharoplasty surgery:
After the eyelid procedure, you can expect to return to your regular life within 10 days or less under normal conditions. Immediately after the surgery, you can expect some discomfort, including swelling and dry eyes. These are normal side effects and such conditions quickly resolve. Your cosmetic surgeon will tell you how to do cold compresses and will give you the necessary medications to make the recovery as painless and easy as possible.
