What is Blepharoplasty?
Blepharoplasty, commonly referred to as eyelid surgery, involves removing excess skin, muscle, and fat from the upper and lower eyelids. This surgery can enhance the appearance of the eyes, making you look more alert and rejuvenated. It can also correct functional issues, such as impaired vision caused by sagging upper lids.
Benefits of Eyelid Surgery
Eyelid surgery offers numerous benefits, including:
- Improved Appearance: Reduces sagging and puffiness, resulting in a more youthful and refreshed look.
- Enhanced Vision: Removing excess skin from the upper eyelids can improve vision in cases where droopy eyelids obstruct sight.
- Boosted Confidence: Many patients experience increased self-esteem after achieving a more vibrant and youthful appearance.

During your consultation, Dr. Bateni will review your medical history and determine if you are a good candidate for this procedure.
The Eyelid Surgery Procedure
The blepharoplasty procedure involves several steps to ensure safety and effectiveness:
-
Consultation:
Dr. Bateni will discuss your medical history, examine your eyelids, and talk about your goals. This is also the time to discuss any concerns and ask questions about the procedure.
-
Anesthesia:
Local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia will be administered to ensure your comfort during the surgery.
-
Incisions:
For upper eyelid surgery, incisions are made within the natural creases of the eyelids. For lower eyelid surgery, incisions are made just below the lash line or inside the lower eyelid.
-
Removal and Repositioning:
Excess skin, fat, and muscle are removed or repositioned to create a smoother and firmer appearance.
-
Closing the Incisions:
The incisions are closed with sutures, and special instructions are given for post-surgery care.
Recovery and Aftercare
Recovery from eyelid surgery varies, but here are some general guidelines:
- First Few Days: Expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort. Cold compresses and prescribed eye drops can help manage these symptoms.
- First Week: Swelling and bruising will gradually subside. Most patients can return to normal activities within 7-10 days.
- Long-Term Care: Follow Dr. Bateni’s aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing. Protect your eyes from sun exposure and avoid strenuous activities for several weeks.
Risks and Potential Complications
As with any surgical procedure, blepharoplasty carries some risks, including:
- Infection: Proper care and hygiene can reduce the risk of infection.
- Scarring: Incisions are placed within natural folds to minimize visible scarring.
- Dry Eyes: Temporary dry eyes may occur post-surgery.
- Eyelid Issues: In rare cases, patients may experience difficulty closing their eyes or other eyelid-related issues.
- Blood Clots: Though rare, blood clots can occur and pose serious health risks.
