One of the signs of aging is the image of tiredness produced by drooping eyelids. But from cosmetic surgery we have a solution: blepharoplasty, a surgical procedure that involves removing excess skin in the upper eyelid and, if the patient requires it, the excess fat around the eye (known as bags) is also removed, obtaining an instant effect of rejuvenation.
This procedure requires a surgical time of between an hour and an hour and a half. Blepharoplasty, also known as eyelid surgery, is performed under local anesthesia and does not require hospitalization.
This simple operation gives excellent results. Blepharoplasty is one of the most appreciated procedures because important results are achieved, without being noticeable in most cases that the patient has undergone surgery. We must always take into account that with the passage of time new signs of aging will appear and the eyelid may tend to droop. With the eyelid surgery, the elevation of the tail of the eyebrow is combined very well, since this procedure gives a wider effect to the look.
Blepharoplasty Recovery Time
To recover from eyelid surgery or blepharoplasty I recommend two to three days of home care. After seven days the stitches are removed and you can return to daily activities. Already to make a completely normal life would take about three weeks. It should be explained that this procedure may present small hematomas in the eyelids and swelling in the first days after surgery.
