👀 Upper Eyelid Blepharoplasty 👀 There are so many different variations and nuances in upper eyelid blepharoplasty. It is a highly rewarding surgery to preform and for patients to undergo. The excess skin on the upper eyelids can make the eyelid feel heavy, contribute to headaches & eye fatigue, worsen forhead lines & wrinkles (because the muscles on the forhead are constantly engaged to lift the eyebrows, to lift the eyelids) and make us look tired. Feeling nervous and scared is common, particularly because the skin being removed is in close proximity to the eyes. You can see in my video, the eyes are always protected with contact lenses and actually the surgery does not go near the actual eyeball. The procedure is painless. Most patients take no pain relief. Most patients have minimal if any bruising. I recommend 1 week of social downtime until the stitches are removed. Swelling is to be expected and can fluctuate as the eyelid heals. The scar is well hidden in the natural eyelid crease and is generally only ever seen by a trained eye looking for a scar. For those prepping for an important event, or are seen on screen or in front of an audience, I recommend an entire month to allow for healing. In that time, normal activity can be resumed. Eyes should have the same look but just refreshed. Would you have surgery? Well, that’s a very personal decision. What would you like to know about this procedure?
