Eyelid Correction Blepharoplasty
With time the eyelids are generally the first to show signs of aging, sometimes as soon as the early thirties.
Heavy upper lids or puffy lower lids make one look tired even after a long holiday !
Upper eyelid blepharoplasty is used to remove the fat deposits, Blepharoplasty is a rejuvenation technique which will not alter your usual expression, but provide you with a more youthful and pleasant look. A correction of the eyelids will eliminate the folds of the lids and pockets of fat.
upper blepharoplasty is indicated to reduce the "hooding effect" by removing mainly excess skin
lower blepharoplasty will remove your fat pads forever
You will thus appear rested and more dynamic in both your private and professional lives.
It is a "soft" procedure, but nevertheless requires great surgical skill.
The surgeon must assess with most precision the amount of skin and / or fat to be removed from the lids in order to achieve a perfectly natural result.
The procedure itself, quite painless, is performed under local anesthetic combined if necessary with sedation.
it takes 45 minutes to 1 1/2 hours (if upper and lower blepharoplasty are required).
A skin peel can be combined in some cases.
The result is quite obvious immediately following the operation, but the final effect will be assessed after 3 months.
There is very little pain; bruising, however, is common.
Some patients have slightly blurred vision for 3 or 4 days.
