Eye Bag Removal (Blepharoplasty)

Blepharoplasty: Eyelid Surgery for a Youthful, Refreshed Look

Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, is a cosmetic procedure designed to reduce eyelid bags and remove excess fat and loose skin caused by aging or loss of skin elasticity. Over time, the eyelids may develop deep creases, sagging skin, and puffiness, making the eyes appear tired or swollen. In some cases, eye bags can also result from thyroid disease, even before visible skin changes occur.

By removing excess skin and fat, this procedure helps rejuvenate the eyes, making them look more open, alert, and youthful while reducing morning swelling. Blepharoplasty can be performed on the upper eyelids, lower eyelids, or both, depending on the patient’s needs.

What to Expect from Eyelid Surgery

• Upper eyelid surgery can be performed under local or general anesthesia as a day procedure.
• Lower eyelid surgery requires general anesthesia and an overnight hospital stay.
• After surgery, you will need to sleep with extra pillows for three days to reduce swelling. A cold compress will be provided, along with post-operative care instructions.
• Stitches and paper strips will be used to support the eyelids, and stitches are typically removed within 5-7 days.
• Bruising may last 2-3 weeks, and in some cases, patients may experience temporary watery or red eyes.
• A full consultation will provide additional details and personalized recommendations.
