Eyelid Surgery, commonly known as Blepharoplasty, removes the extra fat from the eyelids and the area surrounding the eyes. Removing this excess fat makes your eyes look bigger, brighter, and more attractive. This procedure tightens and contours the skin around the eyes by restoring the elasticity and firmness of the skin. As a result, you get rid of drooping eyelids.

Blepharoplasty – Eyelid Surgery FAQs
How long does it take to heal after eyelid surgery?
The recovery period for eyelid surgery slightly varies for every patient. Usually, the patients can continue their routine within 7-10 days after the surgery. The healing completes by the end of the second week as most of the swelling subsides.
Does eyelid surgery make eyes bigger?
Yes, eyelid surgery can help make the eyes look bigger, but it cannot enlarge their size. When the excessive tissues are removed from above and below the eyes, it gives an impression of bigger-looking eyes.
What are the dangers of eyelid surgery?
Like any other cosmetic procedure, Blepharoplasty – Eyelid Surgery also has some complications associated with it. Some of the possible risks include infection, bleeding, dry eyes, irritation, pain, or irritation upon closing the eyelids, and other related problems.
What is the difference between Normal Eyelid Surgery and Asian Eyelid Surgery?
Naturally, Asian eyelids do not have a crease like other eyelids. Therefore, in Asian Blepharoplasty, apart from the fat removal in the upper eyelid, a crease is also created. This step is not performed in traditional eyelid surgery.
How long do the results last?
The results of Blepharoplasty can last for up to 10 years.
