Blepharoplasty is a process of removing fat and excess skin in the muscle of upper and lower eyelids. Sagging upper eyelids and swollen bags beneath the eye can make a person look exhausted and look older. Occasionally, it can also block your eyesight. Blepharoplasty can raise sagging upper eyelids and reduce sagging of the eye bags that develop under the eyes. The surgery typically takes 1 hour to 3 hours to finish. Doctor will detach the skin from the hypodermis layers and take away excess fat and trim sagging muscle and skin. The cut for upper eyelid is made in the natural crease line that 1 cm over the eyelashes and may extend into the crow’s feet. The lower eyelid cut begins beneath the eyelashes and can do longer 1 cm or so in the crow’s feet area. The incisions will be closed with very thin sutures. The physician will grease your eyes with ointment and may use a dressing after the surgery. The first and second week, you may experience some bruising and inflammation, but normally subside after the second week or the first 10 days. The eyelids may feel dry, but eye drops can help with this. Usually, all the stitches removed after 5 days. In all types of surgery there are always risks.
