Eye Lid Surgery
( Blepharoplasty )
Sagging and Puffy skin around the eyes is
usually the result of age, sun damage, and/or fat
deposits. Eye lid surgery helps to remove that tired old
look, by removing fat deposits and excess skin. Usually
takes 1-2 hours. Usually is done under local anesthesia
with a I.V. sedative. Most swelling last for 7-14 days. A
small number of patients may have residual swelling of
discoloration of the skin around the eyes for several
months. You will be requested to avoid strenuous activity
for 7-10 days so as to not put stress on the healing vessels
around the eyes, which can lead to post operative bleeding and
swelling. Usually you don't need to be off of work more than a
couple of days unless it involves strenuous activities.
Substantial swelling usually occurs for
24-48 hours postoperatively. Swelling begins to subside at
about 36 hours. Makeup can be applied a day or two after
stitches are removed, which usually occurs 4-6 days after the
surgery. You will be swollen with bruising for up to
two weeks. Normal activity may be resumed within the
after 5-7 days, and most patients can feel comfortable in
public after 10-14 days.
